After Rohit Sharma's sudden test retirement, this 25 -year -old captain is “thought”: Resources

According to sources, Rohit Sharma will be dismissed as the Test Captain of India before the team's Tour of England. In particular, Rohit, a determined test of India and ODI captain so far, was expected to lead the next round of five matches in the longest format as of June 20. In addition, India's World Test Championship 2025-27 cycle will be the beginning of the campaign. Prior to the UK tour, the sources told NDTV that Rohit would be removed as the test captain of the Indian Cricket team. In particular, under the leadership of Rohit, India won the 2024 T20 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Cup.
“Shubman Gill is being spoken about the captain. There will be a few more changes because it starts the WTC cycle. The selections will not go back.”
Rohit's report was removed from India's test captain, Indian Express. The newspaper claimed that the decision of the elections had nothing to do with the transition or a call to remove aging players from the team. He added that the decision was based on Rohit's weak performance with the bat on the red ball cricket. The same report added that Rohit would continue to manage the team in ODI format and whether he would travel to England for the test series.
Former Indian choice MSK Prasad thinks that the presence of Arshdeep Singh, Sai Sudharsan and Kuldeep Yadav is a necessity in the squad of the five -match test series in England. In an recent interview, former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri threw his weight behind Sudharsan, who had the experience of playing the district cricket in the middle of Yıldız IPL.
Speaking with the PTI responsible for the election committee between 2016-2020, Prasad gave the reasons why Arshdeep and Kuleep should be there in the squad. In the event that the voters selected a staff of 15 people to be announced in mid -May, they would have Pricidh Krishna in the form, according to the depths of Akash. After R Ashwin's retirement, Washingston Sundar will be a multi -faceted bowling next to Ravindra Jadeja and Kuleep, which the former head selector sees as a real small door buyer even under Tempo -friendly English conditions.
It is a decision that Rohit Sharma needs to be part of the team and thinks that Prasad should be left to the election panel led by Ajit Agarkar.
“Sai must be part of the UK series. Because the new WTC cycle will begin, this is the ideal time.
“If the Rohit is part of the team, it opens with Jaiswal and SAI can be a spare operator. I will leave it to the selections to get this call. Sai may take the opportunity as the series progresses,” he said.
Shubman Gill is expected to hit a third, and in the United Kingdom, Virat Kohli, who should once again overcome external-pusing demons, will hit a quarter. Pant is the choice of small door guard dough that Prasad preferred in the squad, and Kl Rahul did enough to start as an expert dough.
