Team India’s ODI and Test captain Shubman Gill is struggling with a neck injury. Because of this, he is unlikely to play the second Test match against South Africa.
Similarly, there are also doubts about Gill’s availability for the three-match ODI series against South Africa starting from the 30th.
Meanwhile, vice-captain Shreyas Iyer will also not be part of the ODI squad due to a rib injury.
In such a situation, discussions on social media suggest that the BCCI wants Rohit Sharma to captain the ODI team once again for the South Africa series, and they have even spoken to him regarding this.
However, it will be interesting to see whether Rohit agrees to take up the captaincy again or not. Former cricketer Mohammad Kaif believes that Rohit will not captain again.
In this scenario, KL Rahul might be seen leading the team.
