Ajit Agkar declared Shubman Gill as the vice-captain of the Asia Cup

After the selection of the Indian team and with Ajit Agkar, with captain Suryakumar Yadav, attended the press conference to announce the Asia Cup squad, the name he first took was of Shubman Gill.

As Agkar named Shubman’s return to the Indian T20I setup, he also claimed that he had been appointed as the vice-captain of the side. After that, the remaining 14 members of the team were announced, including captain Suryakumar Yadav.

Both the skipper and the selector clarified that Shubman Gill, despite not playing the T20i game for more than a year, was always an integral part of the T20I side and the initial option for the sub-captains announced after the T20 World Cup victory.

Gill was not the first choice for vice-capsi

According to reports claimed by the Indian Express, the appointment of Shubman Gill as the Indian vice-captain was a very consultation taken by the Indian management.

It is discovered that the panel of Indian selectors weighed over options like all-rounder Axar Patel as Vice-Captain. He was appointed as the vice-captain of India in the England T20 series due to the unavailability of Shubman Gill for the series.

However, finally, he was also interested in Gill, citing a player who could be an important person in India’s future leadership structure. Head coach Gautam Gambhir, who virtually joined him, also agreed to the appointment of Gill, as a small player could be prepared better.

Agarkar revealed, “Gill was always part of plans.”

Ajit Agarkar revealed that Gill was always a part of Indian management plans, as a young captain could someday be nurtured to be a world -class leader.

“When we used to play in Sri Lanka, he was the vice-captain. But after that, he was busy in Test cricket,” Agarkar said. “We clearly look at some leadership qualities in them, and his form in England was what we were expecting. He crossed all our expectations, which is a great sign when there is so much pressure as a captain.”

The current captain of the Indian T20I side, Suryakumar Yadav also supported the decision to appoint Mahabman Gill as his deputy in the continental championship.

Suryakumar said, “Gill was always part of the Indian T20 side of first choice.” “He missed due to other commitments and injuries, but the leadership group has always believed its ability.”
