After winning the T20 World Cup, Indian captain Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from this format.
According to Indian media, after the retirement of Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya’s name is coming up for the captaincy of the T20 team.
The report says that Hardik Pandya may be the new captain of the Indian team in the T20 series against Sri Lanka, while fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is likely to be made the vice-captain.
According to the Indian media, Surya Kumar’s name is also being floated for the captaincy, but it is more likely that Hardik Pandya will lead the Indian T20 team to prepare them for the 2026 T20 World Cup.
