Gambhir’s direct message to BCCI regarding the captaincy of T20WC

In light of India’s preparations for the T20 World Cup in June of next year, the outside chatter has increased. Some players have returned from the ODI World Cup, which has led to healthy competition among the team for a first-choice spot in the starting XI. The selectors are closely monitoring the situation in an effort to determine their T20 World Cup squad.

In the midst of the captaincy controversy, former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir has sent a direct message to the BCCI. Gambhir believes that selecting the players in form should come before considering captaincy, as building the right team is more crucial than selecting the captain.

“Captaincy is not important, the team is. First pick the players who are in form. And a player who is in form should be made the captain. You won’t make an out-of-form player the captain, right? Whether that is Rohit Sharma or Hardik Pandya or Suryakumar Yadav? If Rohit isn’t in form, you won’t even pick him probably. Picking the captain is not important, picking the right squad for the T20 World Cup is. And before that we have the IPL. If anyone performs well then you should consider him as well,” he said.

Although BCCI secretary Jay Shah acknowledged that he hopes to see Hardik in the three-match T20I match against Afghanistan in January, there has been no official confirmation regarding Rohit’s T20I return.
