Shubman Gill becomes the leader of India through formats
The boy of Punjab Shubman Gill has already positioned himself as a whole format player at the age of 25 and is part of the Indian leadership group in tests, ODI and T20is.
Gill was named test skipper before the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy when Rohit Sharma retired, and he is currently vice-captain of the ODI and T20is.
According to witnesses, the BCCI prepares him as a fully format captain, and he will soon take over Captain Odi and T20i from Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav if the performance of the duo with the bat is not up to it.
In particular, Gill was recently brought back to the T20i team for the Asia 2025 Cup and appointed the vice-captain, replacing Axar Patel in the role, because the versatile was the deputy of Suryakumar Yadav in the last T20i series against England.
The appointment of Shubman Gill as vice-captain is a problem for Axar Pate
Speaking on his official Youtube channel, the former opener of India, Aakash Chopra, said that the appointment of Gill as vice-captain could lead to the Snub of Axar Patel of India T20i playing the XI. He explained:
“There is another twist in the tale. When Shubman Gill opens, Sanju Samson loses his place, but how will you install Axar Patel because the goalkeeper will come in the middle? This means that the average order you had of Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya and Axar, and after that, Shivam Dube, one of them will be Jite Sharma.
“As soon as Jiteh Sharma arrives, what is the error of Axar Patel? I do not think he can support the order, although he has done well every time he struck the order, and in the bowling too. However, it was made slightly dispensable now, which is sad. Why did you do the vice-captain?” He added.
