Team India finally ended their trophy drought from the ICC last month when they won the T20 World Cup, which was contested in the USA and the West Indies, under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. For Indian cricket supporters who had been waiting years for a major trophy, this victory was a time of great joy.
But not long after this victory, Rohit Sharma declared he was quitting T20 cricket. Many were unprepared for this announcement, but it was only the start of a number of big adjustments. Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja, two more important players, also declared their retirement from the shorter format after Rohit. Over the years, the team's success has been largely due to Jadeja, an essential all-round player, and Kohli, who is renowned for his outstanding batting.
Ajit Agarkar said, "Suryakumar Yadav was made captain because he is one of deserving candidates. He is one of best T20I batters. You want a captain who is likely to play all the games. Hardik Pandya's fitness has been a challenge for him". pic.twitter.com/gRraIvMrp1

Many anticipated that Hardik Pandya, who served as Rohit's backup during the T20 World Cup, would assume the captaincy job now that it was empty. Pandya was regarded as a natural successor because of his great potential. But the management and the team's new head coach, Gautam Gambhir, had different ideas.
Unexpectedly, Suryakumar Yadav was named Team India's new captain for the shorter format. Yadav was viewed as a young and exciting option to captain the club because of his aggressive batting style and reliable results. In addition to him, the rising star of Indian cricket, Shubman Gill, was named vice-captain for both Twenty20 and One-Day Internationals. Gill's promotion to a leadership position is proof of the team's faith in his skills and potential.
Indian cricket enters a new era with these reforms. As squad leader, Suryakumar Yadav provides the group with fresh energy and insight. It is amazing to see how he went from being a dependable middle-order batsman to captaining the national side. The promotion of Shubman Gill to vice-captain also indicates a commitment to developing young talent for upcoming difficulties.

Under Gautam Gambhir, the team's management is obviously trying to assemble a solid and strong squad that can win games regularly. With these new leadership positions, Team India hopes to maintain its competitiveness and success in international cricket.
Lastly, the Indian cricket team has entered an exciting new chapter with the retirement of major players and the appointment of new leaders, even though the end of the ICC trophy drought was a huge achievement. Supporters are excited to see how Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav will impact the team's future and guide India to more wins.
