Rohit Sharma has been replaced by Shubman Gill as India's one-day international (ODI) men's captain, says the country's cricket board. Rohit was India's all-format captain until June 2024 and has been included in India's 15-man squad for the ODI series against Australia, along with star batter Virat Kohli, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said in a statement on Saturday.
Shubman Gill produced an individual performance that defined and dominated the game, forcing opponents into fatigue and impacting their batting. His skill and stamina were crucial as India reduced England to 25 for three at the end of the second day, influencing the match's outcome. Gill's capacity to perform under captaincy pressure showcases his brilliance and adaptability. His 430 runs at Edgbaston is a historic feat, placing him on significant records in Test cricket, emphasizing his rising stature in the sport.
