Shubman Gill will captain India in the upcoming ODI series against Australia, a significant milestone in his burgeoning career. The tour commences on October 19 with the first ODI in Perth, and the Indian contingent departs on October 15. Notably, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are set to feature in their first international matches since the ICC Champions Trophy final in March 2025. This ODI series follows their unexpected retirements from Test cricket. The team’s departure from New Delhi will see players joining Rohit and Kohli, who are slated to arrive in the capital shortly before the flight. The squad boasts a blend of experience and youth, including KL Rahul, Mohammed Siraj, and debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal.
