KL Rahul may get the captaincy of Indian Team, might take over the command in place of Rohit Sharma!

After the Zimbabwe series, the Indian cricket team has to tour Sri Lanka, where 3 T20 and 3 ODI matches will be played. This tour will also bring back those players who were part of the T20 World Cup winning team and are currently on a break after winning the title.

Team India has won the T20 World Cup but it is still in constant action. The young team is touring Zimbabwe under the captaincy of Shubman Gill. Only 3 members of the T20 World Cup winning team are present here, who are going to return from the third T20 match. After this series, Team India will go on a tour of Sri Lanka, where T20 and ODI series will be played. The team for this series is yet to be announced but some big news has started coming in. The most important issue in this is the captaincy issue, as Rohit Sharma is sure to be rested from this series. Therefore, it is believed that KL Rahul can be the captain of the ODI series on this tour.

KL Rahul may get the captaincy of Indian Team, might take over the command in place of Rohit Sharma!

Team India’s tour of Sri Lanka will start in late July, which will continue till the second week of August. The tour will start with a 3-match T20 series from July 27 and it is believed that most of the players will return from this series after the break of the World Cup win. T20 vice-captain Hardik Pandya can also make a comeback and here he can get the command of the team in this format. After this there will be an ODI series and eyes will be on who will get the captaincy here.

Will KL Rahul become the ODI captain?

According to reports, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who have retired from T20 International, will also be rested from this ODI series. Apart from him, veteran fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will also be out of this entire tour. In such a situation, there are 2 main contenders in front of the selection committee for the responsibility of captaincy – Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul. One of these two will get to take charge of the ODI team. Now who gets this honor, it will be decided next week, when the team will be announced for this tour.

Rohit Sharma will take charge in the Champions Trophy

By the way, KL Rahul has improved on the captaincy front in the last few times and has performed better. In such a situation, he is likely to get this responsibility. Anyway, there is not going to be a permanent change in the captaincy in this format at the moment because BCCI secretary Jay Shah had announced a day earlier that Team India will play the Champions Trophy in 2025 under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. But whoever gets the captaincy in this series can be a contender for the vice-captaincy in the Champions Trophy.
