The Cricket Board of India (BCCI) has declared Shreyas Iyer as the vice -captain of Team India in ODI cricket. Shreyas Iyer will take this role for the first time in the ODI series against Australia from October 19. At the same time, the BCCI has appointed 26 -year -old young opener Shubman Gill as the captain of the ODI team. Gill was the captain of the first Test team. Now the command of the ODI team has also been handed over to them.
Shreyas Iyer was not included in Team India in the Test series against the West Indies. After this, news came that Iyer himself wrote a letter to BCCI and asked for a break from red ball cricket. However, a few days ago, several media reports claimed that Shreyas Iyer would be the next captain of India in ODIs. But on Saturday, October 4, all these news came out just rumors. Iyer was made vice -captain, not captain in the ODI team.
Shreyas Iyer did not find space in T20 team once again
Shreyas Iyer has not been included in the T20 team once again. He has not found a place in the T20 series team against Australia. Earlier, Shreyas Iyer was also ignored in the 2025 Asia Cup. Iyer performed brilliantly with the bat in IPL 2025. He had scored more than 600 runs in the last season of IPL. Still they are not getting a place in T20.
Rohit Sharma captained captaincy
The BCCI’s decision before the team’s announcement against Australia made everyone happy. Suddenly, Rohit Sharma was captained and handed over to Shubman Gill. Rohit Sharma won the 2025 Champions Trophy to India in March this year. Even after this, he was removed from the captaincy. However, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been included in India’s 15 -member team for the ODI series against Australia.
