Shubman gill test captain: The Indian team’s tour of England will begin about 2 weeks after the end of IPL 2025. Team India has to play 5 Test matches against England, this series will start from June 20. On the one hand there is speculation that Shubman Gill can be made the new Test captain of India, but do you know that he will not go on a tour of England. After all, how can it be that the player who is being seen as the new captain, is dropped from the squad? Know what is the truth of this matter here.
Shubman Gill will not go on England tour?
Team India’s Test series with England is to start from June 20, but before that the India-A team is also going to visit England. India-A has to play 2 first-class matches with England Lions. BCCI has announced India-A squad for this tour, but it does not include Shubman Gill’s name far and wide. India-A team includes famous players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Nitish Reddy, Shardul Thakur and Rituraj Gaikwad.
It is true that Shubman Gill will not go on England tour with the rest of the players involved in India-A, but he will be seen playing the first match with England Lions. Actually, India-A vs England Lions will start the first match from May 30, but during this time the playoff matches in IPL 2025 will also start from May 29. For this reason, along with Shubman Gill, Sai Sudarshan will not be able to play the first first-class match.
Will join another match
Shubman Gill will be seen playing in the second India-A vs England Lions match starting on 6 June. Along with him, Sai Sudarshan will also join India-A team from the second match. Both of them have scored more than 600 runs while playing for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025. Since Gujarat has reached the playoffs, it is not possible for them to play the first match.
