Mohammed Shami did snub for England’s tests. BCCI sends clear messages – “Not completely …”

Shubman Gill was appointed as the new Test captain of India on Saturday, while Rishabh Pant was named his deputy, which began with a five -match series in England. The decision of the selectors on the leadership of the team was on the expected lines after the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Young Left-Hander B Sai Reformson earned his first Test call-up. The squad also includes Karun Nair, who returns to the national set up after seven years. A notable exclusion was Pesar Mohammed Shami, which was not considered sufficient fit for a longer series. “Last year either we have seen Shubman (for leadership). We hope that he is the man (to take the team forward). It’s a high pressure, but he is a terrible player. We wish him all the best,” we wish everyone all the best.

On Shami, he said: “His charge is not the place where he should be. We were hoping that he will be available but it is unfortunate. At the moment he is not fully fit. From the tour of Australia, Harshit Rana and Sarfaraz Khan have been dropped.

Agkar also opened the decision to appoint Gill as the next captain.

“We have discussed every option in the last one year, we have seen Shubman many times. He reacted a lot from the dressing room. Very young, but it has improved.”

“We hope he is a man. He is a terrible player, best wishes for him.
