India’s T20 setup has undergone a major shake-up, with Shreyas Iyer appointed as the new captain for upcoming assignments, replacing former skipper Suryakumar Yadav, who has been left out of the squad. The selectors have also named Tilak Varma as vice-captain, signaling a transition toward a younger leadership group. Teenage batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has earned his maiden senior T20I call-up after impressive performances in age-group and domestic cricket. While several members of India’s recent T20 World Cup-winning core remain in the squad, the changes indicate a fresh direction as the team begins a new chapter under Iyer’s leadership.
