    Shreyas Has Been Key Player In One-day Cricket, We Want Him To Play Well: Ajit Agarkar

    ODI World Cup: Team India’s chief selector Ajit Agarkar when asked about if the selectors had been looking at Shreyas Iyer’s potential candidate for ODI captaincy in the future, said that they haven’t discussed anything around the 50-over format yet.

    The Test and T20I setup got a new captain after Rohit Sharma retired from the two formats. However, Rohit continues to be an active player in the 50-over format, with the opener previously making his intentions clear of leading India in the ODI World Cup. Nonetheless, talks of his retirement from white-ball cricket keep doing the rounds.

    "I don’t think we’ve discussed the 50-over format. At the moment we’ve to pick team for these two Test matches. Shreyas is a senior player,he obviously leads his franchise in IPL cricket. He’s one of the senior guys, he was captain for India A as well. It’s not like we’re looking at him as the Test captain because of that. We’re trying to find qualities of a leader in a lot of people and India A gives us an opportunity to see if somebody has that ability.
