Making Gill ODI Captain Is Right Move At The Right Time: Finch
Making Gill ODI: Former Australia captain Aaron Finch has backed Shubman Gill’s appointment as India’s ODI skipper ahead of the three-match series between the two teams, calling it the right move made at the right time, keeping in mind the 2027 World Cup.
Gill has succeeded Rohit Sharma to become India’s new ODI skipper and will lead the side in the upcoming three-match series in Australia, starting in Perth on Sunday. The move to give ODI captaincy to Gill, the full-time Test captain who’s led the team before in T20Is, has been viewed by Finch as a forward-looking step which aligns with India’s planning for the 207 ODI World Cup.
Finch himself knows a thing or two about giving time to a new captain for an ODI World Cup – in 2022, he retired from the format following a lean run and handed over the reins to Pat Cummins, who captained them to the mega event in 2023 in India.
