During the presser, Agarkar revealed that Kohli reached out to the BCCI in early April, having already made up his mind to retire from the format.

Not Jasprit Bumrah, Shubman Gill Or Rishabh Pant: Ex-Chief Selector Names Surprising Test Captaincy Pick

Ahead of India announcing its new Test captain while unveiling the squad for the important five-match tour of England, former wicketkeeper-batter Saba Karim has backed Shubman Gill for the leadership role. On the other hand, former chief selector Kiran More said he would prefer KL Rahul to be the side's new Test captain. Ever since Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from Tests earlier this month, Gill has been seen as a front-runner for the full-time leadership role. Rahul has captained India earlier in three Tests, and has recently been seen as a certainty in the longer format scheme of things.

Shreyas Iyer Set For Royal Snub In India's Squad For England Tour? "BCCI Selectors Aren't...": Report

Shreyas Iyer has been one of the most consistent performers in the IPL 2025. In India's 2025 Champions Trophy win, Shreyas Iyer was the top scorer for the team with a run tally of 243. He has also played 14 Tests, with the last being a match against England in February, 2024. Keeping in mind Shreyas Iyer's recent form, there is a school of though that Iyer should be picked for India's Test squad for the Tour of England, starting June 20. However, if a report is to be believed, Iyer is set to be snubbed.

Cheteshwar Pujara To Return For England Test Series? Report Says "Some Chatter..."

Cheteshwar Pujara is unlikely to be considered by the BCCI selectors for the upcoming Test series against England, according to a report by Cricbuzz. With Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma both announcing their retirement from the longest format of the sport, there were conversations among fans regarding a possible return for Pujara. However, the report claims that the selectors and team management are not in favour of 'looking back'. Instead, there can be a chance for Sarfaraz Khan or  Devdutt Padikkal. "There was some chatter that the selectors should look at Cheteswar Pujara (37) for a place in view of the absence of seniors like Rohit and Kohli. But the impression one gets is that the selectors and team management are in no mood to look back," the report read.

Mohammed Shami To Miss England Test Series? Report Makes Huge 'Fitness' Revelation

His last appearance for India in the red-ball setup dates back to the World Test Championship final against Australia in 2023.

Gautam Gambhir Big Admission Ahead Of New Captain Announcement: "Easier To Work..."

Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir would prefer to have one captain for all three formats, but admits such a scenario is not possible in modern day cricket. Following Rohit Sharma's Test retirment, the BCCI is likely to announce a new captain for the format on Saturday ahead of a five-match series against England, starting June 20. Suryakumar Yadav is currently India's captain in T20Is, while Rohit will continue to lead in the 50-over format. With Rohit and Virat Kohli retired from Test and T20Is, Gambhir is likely to have more power in selections calls, and there is a high chance that India will have three different captains for each format.
