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 tour Sri Lanka, where T20 and ODI series will be played. The team is yet to be announced for this series but some big news has started coming already. The most important in this is the issue of captaincy, because Rohit Sharma is sure to be rested from this series. In such a situation, it is believed that KL Rahul can be the captain of the ODI series on this tour.

Team India's tour of Sri Lanka will begin in late July and will continue till the second week of August. The tour will begin with a 3-match T20 series from July 27 and it is believed that most of the players will make a comeback in 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 Rahul become the ODI captain?

According to PTI report, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who have retired from T20 International, will also be rested from this ODI series.

Apart from them, veteran fast bowler Jaspreet 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 lead the ODI team. Now who gets this honor will be decided next week, when the team will be announced for this tour.

Rohit will take charge in Champions Trophy

However, KL Rahul has improved on the captaincy front in the recent past 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.
