SKY Has Necessary Qualities, Fitness Challenge For Hardik: Agarkar
T20 World Cup: Chief selector Ajit Agarkar has explained a reason behind chosing Suryakumar Yadav as India’s T20I captain over Hardik Pandya, saying the that SKY is one of the deserving candidates. He added fitness was one of the reason why Hardik was not considered for the role.
"He is one of the deserving candidates," Agarkar told the reporters. "He is one of the best T20 batters in the world. We wanted a captain, who is likely to play all the games. We will see how he will do in two years," he said.
Suryakumar, who is ranked No.2 in ICC Men's T20I batting rankings, has captained the Mumbai team in the Indian domestic cricket circuit in all formats. He also led India to a 4-1 T20I win over Australia last November and then captained India to a 1-1 series draw in South Africa in December 2023.
