Shubman Gill became the new captain after Rohit Sharma’s Test retirement. Now the weight of the captaincy of the ODI team has also come on Gill’s shoulders. Many fans and cricket experts are still not happy when Rohit is removed from the captaincy, one of which is of former Indian batsman Mohammad Kaif. Kaif targeted the Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar and other selectors and said what Rohit had done wrong. Kaif also said that the selection committee is making a hurry to make Shubman Gill a leader.

Mohammad Kaif said on his YouTube channel that he already expected Rohit to be removed from the captaincy. However, he expected this to happen after the 2027 World Cup. Kaif says that Rohit is a world-level player, has also retained his fitness and can play till 2027 World Cup.

Shubman Gill is being put on wasteful pressure …

Mohammad Kaif said, “I just say that do not put too much pressure on Gill. Batting on captaincy, number-4 in the Test. He was made the vice-captain in the Asia Cup and when Suryakumar Yadav retires, Gill will handle the front. Now he has been handed over ODI captaincy. I think all this is being done in a hurry. But suddenly everyone is seeing him as a Future Captain.

What did Rohit Sharma do wrong

Mohammad Kaif put a class of the selection committee and said, “What work did Rohit Sharma do wrong. It is unfortunate that Rohit could not get a long captaincy term, not even 4 years. He is a great batsman and best leader. His captaincy record could have been even better. When you take away the captaincy, I think I think that player’s right hand breaks.”
