Kaif said, “Shubman Gill has scored 2000 runs in the last 3 years. He is the captain of future. In Tests, captain and vice -captain in T20. When Rohit retired from ODIs, Gill will become the next captain.
Shubman Gill is vice -captain in Asia Cup squad
The BCCI announced the squad for the Asia Cup on Tuesday, Shubman Gill returned to the T20 team after about a year and was elected vice -captain. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar said in the press conference, “We see the qualities of being a leader. He performed as expected in England. The way he performed in batting, he also crossed all our expectations.”
