Champions Trophy 2025: Yashasvi Jaiswal is done playing, as soon as Gill becomes the vice-captain, he is removed from the playing-11!
Sports Desk: The Champions Trophy is going to start from 19th February. Team India for this ICC tournament has been announced on January 18. Where Rohit Sharma has been given the command of the team and Shubman Gill has been made the vice-captain. However, many people are surprised by Gill becoming the vice-captain. Not only this, with Gill becoming the vice-captain, Yashasvi Jaiswal's position is also under threat.
Actually, Yashasvi Jaiswal is the opening batsman of Team India. He comes on the field to open the innings for India in Test and T20. Although he has not made his debut in ODI yet. In such a situation, now the question is whether he will be a part of the playing-11 in the Champions Trophy or not. Because with Gill becoming the vice-captain, it is certain that he will remain a part of the playing-11.
Jaiswal's card will be cut because of Gill
In such a situation, if Gill will be a part of Team India's playing-11, then it is also believed that he can open India's innings along with captain Rohit Sharma. If this happens, Jaiswal will hardly get a place in the team's playing-11. However, he has a chance to secure his place in the team's playing-11 for the Champions Trophy and he has this opportunity in the ODI series against England.
Yashasvi has a big chance
India has to play an ODI series against England from 6th February. This series is happening just before the Champions Trophy. In such a situation, the players will have the opportunity to perform brilliantly in this series and secure their place in the team's playing-11 in the Champions Trophy. Yashasvi also has this opportunity. He can also debut in ODI against England.
If there is success in the team then where is Gill?
If Yashasvi Jaiswal is successful in making a place in the team's playing-11, then the question is what will be the position of vice-captain Shubman Gill? So in this case, Gill can be played at number four and Shreyas Iyer can be dropped from the playing-11. However, its chances are very less, because Shreyas has performed very well in the last few days. So his chances of remaining in the team are quite high.
