Cricket News Desk.. Reports have emerged that not Hardik Pandya but explosive middle-order batsman Suryakumar Yadav will be the next captain of the Indian T20 cricket team. However, is the BCCI making a big mistake by appointing Suryakumar Yadav as the captain? Let us tell you about 3 things that can be a matter of concern for both the team and the board after Surya becomes the captain.
I am getting older, I may retire soon
Suryakumar Yadav made his international cricket debut at the age of 31. Currently, he is 33 years old. For how many years will he remain associated with the team? It depends on his fitness. If Surya's fitness is not good, then he may retire early with increasing age.
Not much experience of international cricket
Suryakumar Yadav has played 68 T20 matches for India so far. Apart from this, he has also played 37 ODIs and 1 Test. He does not have much experience of international cricket.
Never captained before
Suryakumar Yadav does not have much experience of captaincy in international cricket. He has captained India in only a few T20 matches.
