Rohit Sharma is all set to return as India's captain amid the busy season. Actually, India could see a big change in leadership again, as the squad for the upcoming ODI and T20I series is expected to be announced on Saturday (November 22).
Shubman Gill, who became India’s new ODI captain in October and led the team in Australia last month, is all set to miss the upcoming three-match ODI series against South Africa. Gill hurt his neck on Day 2 of the first Test against South Africa and has not recovered yet.
