There is tremendous excitement among the fans about the three-match ODI series between India and Australia. This series is also special because Team India's legendary batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will take the field after a long gap. The Indian team's confidence is at its peak after winning the Asia Cup 2025 (T20 format), but now the focus is on this high-voltage series.
The most interesting aspect is that this time the command of the team will be in the hands of Shubman Gill. Despite his experience, the BCCI selection committee has removed Rohit Sharma from the ODI captaincy and appointed Gill as the new captain. This decision is believed to have been taken keeping in mind the future of Indian cricket. Now, former cricketer Parthiv Patel has given special advice to the new captain Gill regarding Rohit and Kohli.
Parthiv Patel gave advice to Shubman Gill.
Former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Parthiv Patel has advised Shubman Gill that he should not try to manage Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Parthiv believes that both players are so experienced and mature that they do not need any special guidance or control. Parthiv said, 'I don't think there will be any problem in this because players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma know their roles very well.'
Parthiv Patel said this.
He said, 'You look at Virat, he became the captain when MS Dhoni was still playing. He knows how a senior player supports the new captain. The same thing happened with Rohit also. When he became the captain, even though Virat was not his senior, as a former captain, he cooperated. Parthiv also added that Gill should not put his energy level into handling such senior players. Parthiv said, 'Both are very mature and understand the decisions for the good of Indian cricket. Shubman should not invest his energy in managing them.
New chapter under Gill's captaincy
This will be the first time that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will play under the captaincy of young player Shubman Gill. Earlier, Kohli had played under Rohit Sharma when he himself stepped down from the captaincy, but now the scenario is different. Gill is not only a symbol of the future of the team but also has the responsibility of taking the team forward with new thinking.
New balance for Team India
The upcoming series will decide how smoothly this new captaincy pair is able to work. For the Indian team, this series is not only an opportunity to prepare but also to see how young captain Shubman Gill keeps pace with the senior players, without managing and taking them along.
