Suryakumar Yadav’s age at present is 35 years. He recently made India win the T20 World Cup, but his bat has been silent for some time. This is why the selectors are now considering a new captain keeping the future in mind.
On the other hand, Shreyas Iyer continues to perform brilliantly. He took Punjab Kings to the final in IPL 2025. Earlier in 2024, under his captaincy, Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL title for the third time. In such a situation, the board is seriously considering giving him the command of the T20 team.
According to the report, the selectors are not happy with the poor form of Suryakumar Yadav and want to bring new energy into the team. In the coming time, India has to play two T20 matches against Ireland, after which there will be a five-match T20 series against England. It is believed that Shreyas Iyer can be given the captaincy in this series.
The Indian team has a very busy T20 schedule in the next few years. The T20 World Cup is to be held in 2028 and cricket will also return in the Los Angeles Olympics in the same year. In such a situation, the team management wants to prepare a new and strong T20 team from now on. India is also eyeing the target of winning the T20 World Cup for the third consecutive time.
The report also said that Suryakumar Yadav’s performance in the recent T20 World Cup was not as expected. He scored just 242 runs in nine innings, of which 84 runs came against America alone. At the same time, his performance in IPL 2026 has also been lackluster. His team Mumbai Indians is running at ninth position in the points table.
