Team India is going to be announced soon for the Sri Lanka tour. The Indian selection committee can soon announce the T20 and ODI team. However, the biggest issue of this meeting is the next T20 captain of Team India. The question is who is going to become the T20 captain? After the T20 World Cup victory, it was believed that vice-captain Hardik Pandya would replace Rohit Sharma, but now Suryakumar Yadav is being said to be ahead in this race. There are reports that new head coach Gautam Gambhir wants Suryakumar Yadav to be handed over the reins of the T20 team. The question is what is wrong with Hardik Pandya? If media reports are to be believed, there is a big thing that is going against Hardik Pandya.

Is that why Hardik can't become captain?

According to a report published in the Times of India, a BCCI official said that Hardik Pandya was going to become the captain after Rohit Sharma but the selection committee and Gautam Gambhir are inclined towards Suryakumar Yadav. It is being said that Hardik Pandya cannot be available in every series. Gambhir wants that the player who plays in every series should be made the captain till the 2026 T20 World Cup.

Hardik Pandya's fitness is the big reason

Hardik Pandya's workload management has been a big issue. In the last five years, he has rarely played two consecutive series. Here one more thing goes with Suryakumar Yadav that he has worked with Surya when he was the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders in the year 2014. Suryakumar Yadav was also made the vice-captain. Today Surya is the top T20 batsman, so in such a situation he has become a big contender for captaincy. Hardik Pandya has also been talked to on this issue. Now the final decision on the T20 captain will be taken in the selection committee meeting.
