NDTV
There were reports that Rohit Sharma was asked to lead the Indian cricket team, side that is now being led by Suryakumar Yadav, in the T20Is against South Africa.
The India vs South Africa T20I series is one of the few assignments for the 'Men in Blue' before next year's T20 Cricket World Cup. India's wait for their first ICC title since 2013 is on and next year's T20 Cricket World Cup presents a chance to end that drought. If the initial signs are anything to go by, the BCCI selectors are not averse to giving youngsters the chance with an eye on the T20 Cricket World Cup. The side that has been picked for the South Africa Tour, where India will play three T20Is apart from other format matches, is a young one with the likes of Rinku Singh, Arshdeep Singh, Tilak Varma being the highlights.
There were reports that Rohit Sharma was asked to lead the side that is now being led by Suryakumar Yadav. However, the regular India captain asked for a break from the white-ball leg of the Tour. However, certain reports are saying he might be considered for the T20 Cricket World Cup.
Ahead of the first T20I between India and South Africa, Sunil Gavaskar was asked about India's likely opening combination and he made an interesting comment.
