Raina predicts! Gill to replace SKY as T20 captain?

Shubman Gill was observed honing his skills during a recent practice session, showcasing his batting technique and form as he geared up for the upcoming matches.

The BCCI recently appointed Suryakumar Yadav as the India T20 captain ahead of Hardik Pandya. He is expected to lead India in the next T20 World Cup in 2026. However, Raina sees vice-captain Shubman Gill leading the team for a long time.

“Shubman Gill is a super star. Gill is vice captain it means someone is thinking about him. If he does well in the IPL and win the trophy he is the future (captaincy). He will be the next super star,” said Raina.

Raina is also excited about Rishabh Pant’s return to Test cricket after close to two years.

He is looking very good. He scored a fifty in Duleep Trophy. He has been keeping well. When you talk about a Test match you play it session by session.”

“Bangladesh have done well against Pakistan. They have got good spinners, it will be interesting to see how the Indians bat against them,” added Raina ahead of the first Test beginning in Chennai on Thursday.
