While Rohit Sharma will continue as the Test captain, Suryakumar Yadav was named the T20I captain while KL Rahul will lead the side in ODIs. While the decision was largely impacted by the unavailability of Hardik Pandya due to injury, Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan was not pleased with the decision taken by the team management to go with three captains but pointed out that this can go on to be the norm in the near future.
