What Ajit Agarkar, Gautam Gambhir Told Ravindra Jadeja Before Picking Squad For SL ODIs

As the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the squads for the tour of Sri Lanka, some bold decisions were taken. The decision to pick Suryakumar Yadav over Hardik Pandya as the T20I skipper left many stunned while the absence of Ravindra Jadeja from the ODI side was another head-scratcher. Jadeja, who announced retirement from the T20I format, was expected to lead India's pin attack in the island nation but his name was nowhere to be seen in the roster. With India scheduled to play just 6 ODIs before the Champions Trophy next year, Jadeja's absence from the 50-over side, was deemed by many as a decision that could be long-lasting.

Suryakumar Yadav's promotion as the skipper in the shortest format, ahead of the 'natural successor' Hardik Pandya, is the biggest burning topic in Indian cricket at the moment. Gambhir is expected to explain the decision and clarify a number of other topics, such as Shubman Gill's promotion as white-ball vice-captain as well as Ravindra Jadeja's ODI snub.

"What Has He Done?": Ex-India Star Questions Ruturaj Gaikwad's Snub From Sri Lanka Tour

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on July 18 announced the squads for the upcoming Sri Lanka tour. Among the surprise omissions was Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Gaikwad had scored 133 runs across three innings in Zimbabwe at an average of 66.5. Former India batter Aakash Chopra has questioned the selection committee for Gaikwad's snub.

Watch: India T20I Skipper Suryakumar Yadav 'Giving It All' Ahead Of Sri Lanka Series

Star India batter Suryakumar Yadav was seen practising ahead of the upcoming Sri Lanka tour, which will be starting on July 27. Ahead of Sri Lanka tour, Suryakumar took to his official Instagram account and shared a glimpse of him sweating it out. The 33-year-old shared a small clip of him running on the field before the start of the series. India has named Suryakumar Yadav as the captain of their men's T20I team for the tour of Sri Lanka, with Shubman Gill as the vice-captain of the T20I and ODI sides. Notably, Hardik, who was leading the T20I sides in the tours after the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 debacle in Australia, where England beat India by 10 wickets in the semis, has been removed from the leadership roles. He led India in 16 T20I matches, winning 10, losing five, and one ending in a tie. His win percentage was 62.50.

Seeing Harshit Rana and Riyan Parag make but the rosters is a decision that hasn't been well-digested by everyone either.

After T20I Captaincy Blow, Hardik Pandya Could Be In Line For Bigger Setback In ODIs: Report

Just as Hardik Pandya thought his career is on the path of revival, with T20 World Cup 2024 triumph, the all-rounder dealt with a big setback in the shortest format. Hardik wasn't only denied the T20I captaincy, after Rohit Sharma retired, but also stripped of the vice-captaincy role. As the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) bosses and selection committee remain concerned about his fitness and injury record, Hardik could be in line for a bigger setback in the 50-over format. While Hardik is still crucial to Team India's plans in the shortest format, the Baroda-born cricketer might not find a place in India's ODI squad for the Champions Trophy next year if he fails to consistenly bowl 10 overs in a game.
