Ravi Bishnoi Reveals Gautam Gambhir's Priceless Advise Behind Sri Lanka Tour Heroics

No Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma or Jasprit Bumrah, yet the Indian cricket team continues to march on, securing their second consecutive win of the 3-match T20I series against Sri Lanka. Ravi Bishnoi, much like the first T20I, played an important role in the team's triumph in the second match. Speaking to media in the post-match press conference, Bishnoi only had positive things to say about India's new T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav who has marshalled his troops quite effectively in the island nation.

Former New Zealand cricketer Scott Styris believes that Suryakumar Yadav is only a temporary captaincy option for India, with Gautam Gambhir ideally hoping to build Shubman Gill as the nation's future long-term captain. Suryakumar Yadav - fondly known as SKY - was appointed India's T20I captain by Gambhir after the retirement of Rohit Sharma from the shortest format. Gill was appointed vice-captain in both the T20Is and ODIs for the Sri Lanka tour, prompting Styris to believe that more long-term plans are in play.

Virat Kohli's World Record Matched In Half The Time, Suryakumar Yadav Does The Unthinkable

India's newly-appointed T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav began his journey as the full-time skipper of the team in emphatic fashion, winning the first match of the series quite convincingly.
