Fans react after Pandya removed as VC for Sri Lanka tour"/><p>Fans on Twitter shared their reactions after Shubman Gill was named the vice-captain of the Indian Cricket Team for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka. The team will play three T20Is and three ODIs during this tour.</p><p>Shubman Gill, who recently led the team in the Zimbabwe tour has been given the additional role of vice-captain for the Sri Lanka tour. He will hold this position in both formats.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Surprising Vice-Captaincy choice</strong></h3><p>Gill being chosen over Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul as vice-captain in ODIs was a big surprise. There were rumors that if Rohit Sharma was unavailable, KL Rahul would lead the team. However, these rumors were put to rest with the squad announcement.</p><p>Hardik Pandya has had an impressive cricketing journey, having won the IPL trophy as the captain of the Mumbai Indians and leading the team to the final in his second season in that role. He also served as the captain of the Indian T20I team for over a year, showcasing his leadership skills on the international stage.</p><p>In the T20 World Cup 2024, he was recognized as the Most Valuable Player for India, further highlighting his talent and contributions.</p><p>The dynamic duo of Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav continues to leave their mark on cricket. Previously, Gambhir served as the captain and Suryakumar as the vice-captain of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), leading the team with their combined strategic acumen. </p><p>Now, in a twist of roles at the international level, Suryakumar is the captain of the Indian T20I team, with Gambhir stepping in as the coach. This enduring partnership promises to bring their proven synergy and leadership to the national stage.</p><p>Fans on Twitter had mixed reactions to Shubman Gill being named vice-captain of the India team for the Sri Lanka tour. Some were happy with the decision, while others were disappointed. Here are some of their reactions:</p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Surya Kumar Yadav appointed as T20I Captain, Shubman Gill as Vice Captain <br><br>Hardik Pandya is not part of the leadership role. <br><br>Not against Sky as skipper but can’t digest the fact what’s happening with Hardik.</p>— Dheeraj Singh (@Dheerajsingh_) <a href="https://twitter.com/Dheerajsingh_/status/1813939137952764413?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 18, 2024</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></figure><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">🚨🔴 Mumbai Indians removed greatest IPL captain Rohit Sharma from the captaincy for Hardik Pandya because they thought that Pandya is India's T20I captain.<br><br>Then Hitman made his magical comeback and won T20 World Cup as Captain for India and now Suryakumar Yadav is India's new… <a href="https://t.co/T1bQQM2dLy">pic.twitter.com/T1bQQM2dLy</a></p>— Vishal.
