Gautam Gambhir: Gautam Gambhir's name has been announced as the new head coach of Team India and he will take over the responsibility from the Sri Lanka tour. However, as soon as he became the coach, he has started taking out his animosity with former Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Actually, after becoming the coach, Gambhir has now removed Dhoni's beloved son and he has not been included in the team for the tour against Sri Lanka. Gambhir has removed this player as part of a conspiracy.

Team India announced against Sri Lanka

Let us tell you that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the squad of Team India for the Sri Lanka tour starting from July 27.

Some such players have been included in this team, whose names are surprising.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are going to make a comeback to international cricket through the ODI series for this team. Not only this, BCCI has chosen Suryakumar Yadav and not Hardik Pandya as the new captain of the T20 team.

Rituraj Gaikwad was dropped

Ruturaj Gaikwad, who has consistently performed well for Team India and is Dhoni's favorite star batsman, has not been given a place in Team India on this tour. He has been shown the way out of the team and this decision of the selectors is absolutely surprising.

Gaikwad performed brilliantly for Team India in the recently concluded T20 series against Zimbabwe. This batsman scored 133 runs in 3 innings of 4 matches at an average of 66 and a strike rate of over 158, but even after this he was dropped from the team and Shubman Gill, who struggled against Zimbabwe, has been made the vice-captain of the team.

T20 career of Rituraj

If we look at Rituraj's T20 career, he has performed brilliantly for Team India so far and he captained India in the Asian Games 2023 and also won the gold medal for Team India.

Gaikwad has played a total of 23 T20 matches in his career so far, in which he has scored 623 runs at an average of 39.56 and a strike rate of 143.54 and during this time he has scored one century and 4 half-centuries from his bat.
