Kathmandu. The Indian cricket team is scheduled to tour Sri Lanka this month. During the Sri Lanka tour, the Indian team will play a series of three T20 Internationals and three ODIs against the host nation.
The Indian team will be going on a Sri Lanka tour for the first time under the leadership of a new head coach. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) recently appointed Gautam Gambhir as the head coach of the Indian team.
However, Indian media outlets have reported that there are differences of opinion between head coach Gautam Gambhir and BCCI secretary Jay Shah over the captaincy of the T20 team for the Sri Lanka tour.
Rohit Sharma, who recently led India to the ICC T20 World Cup title, retired from T20I cricket after the tournament. Since then, a debate has started as to who should be made the captain of the Indian team.
BCCI secretary Jay Shah wants Hardik Pandya to be made the captain of the T20 team for the Sri Lanka tour. But the newly appointed head coach Gautam Gambhir wants to announce the team for the Sri Lanka tour under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav.
It is said that due to this dispute between the board secretary and the head coach, there has been a delay in the announcement of the team. It is said that the BCCI is likely to announce its team for the Sri Lanka tour on Thursday.
However, the captaincy dispute has not been resolved yet. Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of the Indian team in the T20 World Cup held recently in the USA and West Indies. Some other office bearers of the BCCI are also said to be in favor of making Suryakumar the captain, according to the news.
