Team India's best all-rounder Hardik Pandya is currently participating in the T20 World Cup and he is performing very well in this mega event. It is being said about Hardik Pandya that the BCCI management is looking at him as a future captain.

But now such a news has come out related to them which has disappointed all the supporters. Actually, the thing is that Hardik Pandya himself has asked for a few days leave from BCCI and in such a situation the management can appoint some other player as the captain of Team India.

Because of this Hardik Pandya asked for rest from BCCI

Team India's vice-captain Hardik Pandya is continuously playing cricket after returning from injury and in such a situation, the possibility of him getting injured again is increasing. Since Team India has to participate in some big events in the coming time and that is why it is being said that Hardik Pandya can ask for leave from BCCI to give himself proper rest.

Hardik Pandya is the most important part of the Indian team and that is why the management would not want to lose him at any cost.

This player can be made the captain on the Zimbabwe tour

Team India has to play a 5-match T20 series against Zimbabwe right after the T20 World Cup and new players can be given responsibility on this tour. Since Hardik Pandya will not be a part of the Indian team, in his absence the management can appoint Rituraj Gaikwad as the captain of the Indian team.

Rituraj Gaikwad has captained the team many times before and since then he was being seen as a future captain.

Apart from Rituraj Gaikwad, the BCCI management can appoint young all-rounder Shivam Dubey as the vice-captain of the Indian team. Apart from this, the management can consider giving opportunities to young players in this series.
