Fitness Led To Picking Surya Over Hardik As Captain: Agarkar

By IANS News July 22, 2024 • 13:10 PM View: 716

Fitness and availability for all matches was the reason why the national selectors opted for Suryakumar Yadav as captain of the Indian team for the T20I series against Sri Lanka instead of senior all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who has led the side on many occasions so far and is more experienced compared to Surya.

While clarifying that SKY is a deserving candidate and has shown good leadership qualities besides being a premier T20I batter in the world, Agarkar said their main concern was to check out different set of leaders as part of a succession plan as Rohit Sharma has decided to quit the shortest format of the game following India's triumph in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024.
