Suryakumar Named Captain For 5-match T20 Series Against Australia; Shreyas Iyer To Play Last Two Games
T20 International Series: With the selectors deciding to rest most of the top stars that played the ICC Men's ODI World Cup, Suryakumar Yadav will lead the Indian team in the five-match Twenty20 International series against Australia starting in Visakhapatnam on November 23.
With India losing to Australia in the final in Ahmedabad, the national selection committee, which met at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, decided to rest all players minus Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan and Prasidh Krishna, who was included as a replacement for injured allrounder Hardik Pandya.
The selectors announced the squad for the upcoming 5-match T20I series against Australia on Monday. Former India batter and National Cricket Academy (NCA) chief V.V.S Laxman is likely to be announced as coach of the team as chief coach Rahul Dravid, whose tenure is set to be over after the World Cup, has decided to take leave after three months.
