On Tuesday, while announcing the Indian squad for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, the chief selector picked Shubman Gill as the Team India Vice-Captain.

His appointment as Suryakumar Yadav’s deputy indicates that India’s think tank may be leaning back towards the tried-and-tested one-captain-for-all-formats policy in the near future.

It seems like head coach Gautam Gambhir and the current selection committee are on the same page when it comes to the leadership concerns of the team.
