    Bold Move To Trust A Young Leader After Retirements Of Rohit And Kohli: Vaughan On Gill's Appointment As Test Captain

    By IANS News June 09, 2025 • 14:36 PM View: 430
    World Test Championship: Former England captain Michael Vaughan feels that appointing the 25-year-old Shubman Gill as India's Test captain, ahead of the five-Test series against England, is a "bold move" following the retirements of stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli from the red-ball format.

    Gill will lead India in their first assignment of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle in England, starting on June 20 in Leeds. The right-handed opening batter will have wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant as his deputy.

    With the sudden Test retirements of Rohit and Kohli last month, India's batting attack will pretty much be spearheaded by Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul and Pant.
