Who will be the ODI and Test captain of Team India after Rohit Sharma is a big question. On this question, Team India's former fielding coach R Sridhar has made a big claim. Sridhar has said that Shubman Gill will be the next captain of Team India. According to him, after Rohit's retirement, Shubman Gill will be given the captaincy of the ODI and Test team. Sridhar has also told the reason behind this.

Sridhar made a big claim about Gill

R Sridhar, while talking to Hindustan Times, said that Shubman Gill is a player of all formats and he will be Rohit Sharma's successor.

He will become the captain in place of Rohit Sharma in Tests and ODIs. Sridhar expressed hope that Shubman Gill will become the captain of all three formats of Team India after the 2027 World Cup.

Team India has indicated

Sridhar's words seem to have some substance because Team India has already declared Shubman Gill as its successor. Gill has been made Team India's ODI and T20 vice-captain just before the Sri Lanka series. There have also been reports of making him the vice-captain in the Test series against Bangladesh. Now let's see what happens next but the current situation is pointing towards this.

It is not that easy for Gill

However, it is not so easy for Shubman Gill to become the captain of Team India. For this, he will first have to perform consistently well, which has seemed very difficult for him so far. Especially in Test and T20 formats, he has failed to perform consistently well. Many experts have even objected to making him the vice-captain of the T20 team. In fact, questions have always been raised on Gill's strike rate in T20. Current head coach Gautam Gambhir himself had said in an interview last year that Prithvi Shaw is a better T20 batsman than Gill.

In such a situation, if Gill wants to become the captain, he will have to give his best.
