That is, unofficially BCCI is looking at Shubman Gill as Rohit Sharma's successor. While Rohit Sharma will be given the captaincy of the team for the Champions Trophy. So Shubman Gill will be seen in the role of his deputy. Head coach Gautam Gambhir also wants that Rohit and Gill should get this responsibility. Due to which BCCI secretary Jay Shah can implement this very soon.

The matter is stuck regarding where the Champions Trophy will be held

Pakistan has the hosting rights of the 2025 Champions Trophy. But relations between India and Pakistan have gone from bad to worse over the past several years. The Indian team has not visited Pakistan since 2008.

For this reason, the Asia Cup to be held in Pakistan in 2023 was also held in a hybrid model. Regarding the Champions Trophy, speculations are now being made that the entire Champions Trophy will not be held in Pakistan but in a hybrid model. In which Team India's matches will be held in Dubai. However, no official information has been shared by the ICC regarding this so far.
