Former Indian Cricter Commenter Aakash Chopra recently shared his thoughts on the current Indian leadership configuration through formats. We wondered if having three different captains for each format is the best focus for India before the next Asia Cup 2025.
Currently, Shubman Gill is India’s test captain, and Rohit Sharma remains captain in hatred after retiring of the test formats and T20I, while Suryakumar Yadav runs the T20i team.
The first batter said that the current three-way division may not be ideal and suggested that the BCCI and national selectors consider it to be reduced to two captains.
Your daily dose of cricket!
Aakash Chopra questions the formula of three Capitis ahead of the Asia Cup 2025
There are rumors that Shubman gill He will be appointed vice-chic for the T20is, which means that Axar Patel would lose his position, and Chopra feels that the next changes will be complicated for India.
Chopra believes that having two captains would be the best option, as three different leaders could unnecessarily complicate the long -term planning of the team.
Aakash Chopra said in a video on his YouTube channel, “Shubman Gill in test matches, Rohit Sharma in Odes and Suryakumar Yadav at T20is: Three formats and three captains. Is there any changes in this? Will a captain be handed over two formats? Will it begin to introduce Shub Man to Les T20S?”
The commentator added: “There could be a temptation. There are also rumors. If this happens, you will do in Shubman Gill the Vice-Capitan instead of Axar to T20is for continuity? This will be slightly complicated. I feel that two captains are enough. Having three captains becomes a little.”
Aakash Chopra warns of confusion in the Indian cricket
In the meantime, Aakash Chopra also wondered if the current focus of three capitis is hurting the team’s consistency. He mentioned that a captain plays a direct and crucial role in the pitch, making quick and instinctive calls, and that is why stability in leadership is very important.
Many teams prefer a captain for the red ball cricket and another for white ball formats, but the Indian cricket has always supported a captain’s policy. But,, Rohit SharmaThe retirement of T20I and then the test has disturbed this consistency.
Therefore, blue men now have separate captains for tests, hatred and T20is, and this could complicate things for players, as the Cricket analyst feels.
Chopra also explained: “I can still understand two captains. However, three captains for three formats, and complicates some things because there will be a overlap somewhere or another in all three formats.”
Aakash Chopra says the change of captains could alter the winning formula
The commentator emphasized that the team is constantly adjusting to new strategies and mindsets due to the change between captains and can generate confusion and dilute the general play plan.
He was signed by saying, “If you see, Shubman Gill and Kl Rahul are playing tests and hatred, and Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj play the three formats, and suddenly you realize that there is a large amount of overlap. If the players overlap and the captain changes each time and goes with a different thought process, it has a dilution.”
