Why Why Why KL Rahul Is Vice Captain In Test ????. And Why They Didn't Pick Sarfaraz In TEST? PRITHVI Shaw Ko Test Ki Performance Pe T20I Mai Select Kiya. To 300 Ka Wait Kyu Kiya SL Series Mai Bhi T20 Mai Kr Dete. Why KS Bharat No Sanju Samson. KL Rahul _

In the shortest form, Hardik Pandya will continue to captain the team in the absence of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. From the Sri Lanka series, Shivam Mavi, Mukesh Kumar, and Jitesh Sharma were kept. Another notable name on the T20s team was Washington Sundar. Sundar returns after a layoff due to injury.

All-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed was brought back to the team for the ODI series after nearly a year. For the 50-over format series, wicketkeeper K.S. Bharat was also named to the roster. Due to K.L. Rahul's absence from the team because of family obligations, Hardik Pandya will serve as vice captain during the ODI series.

India’s ODI squad against New Zealand: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan (wk), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, KS Bharat (wk), Hardik Pandya (vice-captain), Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd. Shami, Mohd. Siraj, Umran Malik.
