India's Predicted XI vs Sri Lanka, 1st T20I: No Place For Sanju Samson In Team?

The Indian cricket team begins the Gautam Gambhir-Suryakumar Yadav era in T20 international cricket, with the first match against Sri Lanka on Saturday. Some bold calls are expected to be taken as Suryakumar's young side looks to begin a new chapter in the shortest format in a bid to move on from stalwarts like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravindra Jadeja, who all retired from T20Is after T20 World Cup 2024 triumph. Both Gambhir and Suryakumar have some tough calls to take as they select India's XI for the series opener.

Jasprit Bumrah No Longer India's Test Vice-Captain? Report Names Rohit Sharma's New Deputy

Shubman Gill is all set to replace Jasprit Bumrah as the Indian cricket team vice-captain in the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh, according to a report by Revsportz. The youngster was reportedly as Rohit Sharma's deputy in white-ball cricket over the past few games and it looks like Gill will also be given an extremely important role in red-ball cricket. Gill is currently considered as one of the big contenders to take over the captaincy in all formats and this move can be a huge step in that direction. Coming to the series against Bangladesh, the opening Test will be played on September 19 in Chennai, while the second encounter will be played on September 27 at Green Park in Nagpur.

"Nothing Changes": Suryakumar Yadav's Brutally Honest Confession On His Captaincy Style

Suryakumar Yadav, the newly-appointed T20I captain, on Friday asserted that India will continue to play the aggressive brand of cricket which hallmarked the regime of his predecessor Rohit Sharma. Under Rohit, who retired from T20Is after the World Cup triumph in the Americas, India played a template-changing attacking game from last year's ODI showpiece at home. “The same train will go ahead; only the engine has changed and the bogies remain unchanged,” Suryakumar said on the eve of the first of the three T20Is against Sri Lanka. “Nothing changes; the brand of cricket remains the same. It (the captaincy role) doesn't change anything. It has given me an added responsibility. It is good that now I can do a 'walk the talk',” he added.

"Amuses Me He's Termed As All-Rounder From...": Ex-Pakistan Coach's Straight Talk On Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya's importance in Indian cricket currently is immense. Being a top fast bowling allrounder, Pandya represents a breed that is a rarity in the sport in the country. His presence in the XI provides great balance and it was seen in the T20 World Cup. Pandya bowled two crucial late overs in the final against South Africa as India edged past their rivals. He is handy batter too. However, he is not the captain or vice-captain for the Sri Lanka T20I series, and the reason was his fitness.
