- Shubman Gill will lead Team India in the absence of Rohit Sharma during the upcoming five-match T20I series against hosts Zimbabwe.
- Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag and Nitish Reddy get maiden call
Indian Batter Shubman Gill has been appointed as the captain of the Indian team for the upcoming T20I series against Zimbabwe. This decision comes in the absence of Rohit Sharma, who is presumably unavailable for this series.
Gill had initially traveled to the USA as a reserve player for India’s T20 World Cup squad but was later released from the squad before the latter stages of the tournament. This move allowed him to return and now lead the team in the upcoming series against Zimbabwe.
India’s squad for T20I series against Zimbabwe: Ꮪhubman Gill (Captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Abhishek Sharma, Rinku Singh, Sanju Samson (WK), Dhruv Jurel (WK), Nitish Reddy, Riyan Parag, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Tushar Deshpande.
