"There Will Be Pressure": Ajit Agarkar's Honest Admission For India's New Test Captain Shubman Gill

Transition was the buzzword as chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar spoke about the challenges that Shubman Gill will face as India's newest Test captain but insisted that the batting star has what it takes to revel in the "tough" role. Agarkar announced an 18-member squad in which Rishabh Pant will be Gill's deputy for the five-Test rubber starting on June 20 in Leeds. It will be the country's first Test assignment after stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma's retirements from the format.

"Captaincy Decision From India Is...": England Great On Shubman Gill's Appointment

Former England white-ball captain Eoin Morgan believes Shubman Gill being appointed as India's new Test captain is a correct decision, saying that the right-handed batter is a natural leader who isn't afraid of methodologies behind various decisions. On Saturday, chief selector Ajit Agarkar announced Gill's appointment as India's 37th Test captain, and his first assignment in the role will be a five-match tour of England, starting on June 20. Morgan had shared the dressing room with Gill when the duo were together in the Kolkata Knight Riders' for IPL 2020 and 2021 seasons.

India's Full Squad vs England: Who's In, Who's Out, New Faces, Comebacks

Batting star Shubman Gill was on Saturday handed India's Test leadership to steer through a "massive transition" phase starting with next month's tour of England that will be nothing short of a trial by fire for the relatively inexperienced 18-member squad announced. At 25 years of age, Gill will be India's fifth youngest Test captain after Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi (21), Sachin Tendulkar (23), Kapil Dev (24) and Ravi Shastri (25). He will have the swashbuckling but erratic Rishabh Pant as his deputy for the five-match series that will begin on June 20 in Leeds.

Shubman Gill was on Saturday appointed India's new Test captain while Rishabh Pant was named his deputy, starting with the five-match series in England. The selectors decision on the team's leadership was on expected lines following the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Young left-hander B Sai Sudharsan earned his maiden Test call-up. The squad also features Karun Nair, who returns to the national set up up after seven years. A notable exclusion was pacer Mohammed Shami, who was deemed not fit enough for the long series. "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.
