New Delhi. Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma said goodbye to this format after winning the ICC T20 World Cup. Rohit led Team India to the ODI World Cup final last year. Now the question is who will captain the T20 team after Rohit Sharma. For this, former cricketer and selector Saba Karim has suggested 2 names. Saba has said that Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav are good options to captain the team.
Saba Karim said, “First of all we have to see who will captain the T20 International team. Rohit Sharma has now retired. He will no longer play T20 Internationals. I think India has 2 options after Rohit. If we see, Hardik Pandya can be made the captain. Because he was also the vice-captain of the T20 team during the World Cup. He has captained Team India before as well. I think preparations should start for another T20 World Cup after two years.”

Saba Karim further said, “The second name could be Suryakumar Yadav. Because he has captained India in the home series against Australia. India defeated Australia there. Surya also batted well. So that’s why I think he can be another option.”
Let us tell you that Hardik Pandya has captained India in 16 T20 matches so far. During this time, he has led the team to victory in 10 matches. One match was tied. Suryakumar Yadav has captained India in 7 T20 matches so far. During this time, he has led the team to victory in 5 matches. He has faced defeat in two. According to the statistics, both these captains are perfect for the future of Team India.
