The T20 match series between India and Bangladesh begins and with this the new T20 captain of Team India, Suryakumar Yadav, will return. Team India beat Sri Lanka 3-0 in Surya’s first series as captain in July. Now for the first time, he will lead Team India as the regular captain on Indian soil.
Discussions about Surya’s captaincy have started even before this series. He replaces Hardik Pandya, who captained the team until last year and was also vice-captain in the T20 World Cup. Since then, discussions have started whether Surya can captain Mumbai Indians in the next IPL as well. Ahead of the series against Bangladesh, Surya gave his answer on captaincy possibilities in IPL.
In a press conference a day before the match in Gwalior, Suryakumar Yadav was asked about his experience as captain of Team India and also about his desire to captain any team in the IPL. Apparently the Team India captain did not give a direct answer, but through one of his answers he hinted that he is ready to take this responsibility in the IPL as well.
According to a PTI report, Surya said he enjoyed the role. Surya then talked about Mumbai Indians and said that when Rohit Sharma was the captain of the franchise, if he felt something, he would suggest it to the captain.
What Surya said after this was only 2-3 words but it also hinted that he had been offered the captaincy or might be offered. Surya only said – ‘Let’s see the rest.’ Now the question has arisen, after Team India there is a change in captaincy in Mumbai Indians too?
Last season itself, he surprised the franchise by making Hardik Pandya the captain. There was a big uproar when Rohit was removed from the captaincy and the fans didn’t like it either. The Mumbai team finished last in the season. However, India won the T20 World Cup under Rohit’s captaincy and after Rohit’s retirement, Surya replaced Hardik as the captain of the T20 team.
However, speculations are rife that Surya is in touch not only with Mumbai Indians but also with some other franchises. It was also claimed that despite Kolkata winning the IPL 2024 title, Shreyas Iyer could be traded to Mumbai and Surya could be appointed to captain the franchise.
Apart from this, there have also been reports of contact with Lucknow Super Giants, who are looking for a new captain to replace KL Rahul. In such a situation, all eyes are on whether Surya will become Mumbai’s captain or will he go to another franchise? (All Photo Credits : PTI / GETTY IMAGES)
