Shubman Gill has not scored a half-century in his last 21 white-ball games for India.

Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar has identified several marquee players who are expected to attract intense bidding from franchises.

Sanjay Bangar observed that Team India's strategy to go ahead with a flexible batting order has also played a role in the batter's downfall.

Hardik Pandya will return to the Indian squad for the home five-match ODI series against South Africa beginning in Cuttack on Tuesday.

In the just concluded series against South Africa, 38-year-old Rohit Sharma scored 57 and 75 in the first and third games while 37-year-old 'Player of the Series' Virat Kohli had stupendous scores of 135, 102 and 65 not out.

The former India star shared his views while talking about the recent change in India's ODI captaincy.

India play a three-match ODI series against Australia, starting October 19.

Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Bangar praised Rohit Sharma's fitness and preparation ahead of the Australia series, drawing parallels with his determination after missing the 2011 World Cup.

Sanjay Bangar weighed in on Yashasvi Jaiswal's dismissal and Shubman Gill's role in the run-out during the second Test match against West Indies.

Former Indian cricket team batting coach Sanjay Bangar said that Virat Kohli has a naturally brash character and compared him to Amitabh Bachchan's 'angry young man' character.
