Irfan PathanTeam India continues to experiment with captaincy. The growing age of the team’s regular captain Rohit Sharma is becoming a problem for India. At the same time, even after the defeat in the T20 World Cup, questions were raised on Rohit’s captaincy. Now the team’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya is being seen as a regular captain in the T20 format. Under Hardik’s captaincy, Team India won the T20 series in New Zealand after the T20 World Cup.
The team’s dangerous all-rounder Hardik Pandya is leading the race for the new captain. Hardik Pandya has recently been made the captain for the series against Sri Lanka and may soon be given this responsibility on a permanent basis. On the one hand, many veteran players have supported the matter of making Hardik Pandya the captain, on the other hand, former team player Irfan Pathan has warned the management and asked to pay attention to one important thing before taking a decision.

Former India veteran cricketer Irfan Pathan has praised Hardik Pandya’s captaincy but has expressed apprehension about his fitness. During a conversation on Star Sports, he said, “The captaincy that Hardik Pandya has done so far, be it in the IPL for Gujarat Titans or captaining India, his communication has been excellent. I have been very impressed with his approach during his captaincy.
He further said, “However, along with this, India will also have to keep in mind that if you are making him the long-term captain, then a lot of care will have to be taken of his fitness. Whether you talk to him or the team management, this thing is going to be very important going forward. Let us tell you that Hardik Pandya had won the IPL title to Gujarat Titans under his captaincy last year and since then his captaincy was being praised a lot.
