Shreyas Iyer Gets Blunt 'No Room' Verdict From Ajit Agarkar After Snub From India's Test Squad vs England

The Indian cricket squad for the Test series against England was announced on Saturday by BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar. While the likes of Sai Sudharshan, Karun Nair, Arshdeep Singh got call-ups on expected lines, veteran pacer Mohammed Shami was not included due to his fitness. Two names which were ignored, much to the surprise in some quarters, were Sarfaraz Khan and Shreyas Iyer. The latter has been in terrific touch in recent times both in the limited overs format for India and in the IPL 2025. He has Test experience too but he was ignored.

The Indian Test team has officially entered its long-awaited transitional phase when Shubman Gill was named as the captain for the upcoming five-match tour of England, with Rishabh Pant named his deputy.

Rishabh Pant's Appointment As Test Vice-Captain Explained: BCCI Says "Wicket-Keeper..."

Batting star Shubman Gill was on Saturday entrusted with India's Test leadership to steer through a "massive transition" phase with the swashbuckling Rishabh Pant as his deputy for next month's tour of England that is expected to be nothing short of a trial by fire. At 25 years of age, Gill will be India's fourth youngest Test captain after Sachin Tendulkar (23), Kapil Dev (24) and Ravi Shastri (25). The five-match series against England will begin on June 20 in Leeds. "Last year or so we have looked at Shubman (for leadership). We are hopeful he is the guy who is going (to take the team forward). It is a high pressure job but he is a terrific player. We wish him all the best," said chief selector Ajit Agarkar after announcing the squad, which offered no major surprises.
