The command of T20 format has been given in the hands of Suryakumar Yadav. Whereas the captaincy of ODI format remains in the hands of Rohit Sharma. The biggest decision taken by the selectors is that keeping in mind the future, Shubman Gill has been made the vice-captain in both the formats. The main reason behind this is to make him mature in captaincy in time.
