Gambhir and Rohit prefer SKY for India's T20I captaincy: Sources

Following Team India's T20 World Cup 2024 victory and Rohit Sharma's T20I retirement, the next captaincy is a hot topic. Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav, also known as "SKY", are the main contenders, but Suryakumar is favoured at the moment. Gautam Gambhir and Rohit Sharma support Suryakumar, and the decision has been communicated to Pandya. Suryakumar's impressive T20I and IPL records make him better poised for captaincy, starting with the T20I series against Sri Lanka on July 27.
