Shubman represents futuristic vision: Harbhajan

The Statesman Kolkata

|

October 06, 2025

Harbhajan Singh agreed with the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) decision to appoint Shubman Gill as India’s new ODI captain, describing it as a progressive move, considering the 2027 ODI World Cup in India.

The former India spinner, in an exclusive interview with IANS, shed light on Gill’s appointment as ODI captain, Rohit Sharma's leadership qualities, the growth of Indian cricket, the emergence of top cricketers from his state association—Punjab, the Asia Cup trophy controversy, and his role in assisting flood-affected villages in Punjab.

Excerpts:

Q. Shubman Gill was appointed the ODI captain. Was it the right move? Should Rohit have gotten more time in his role?

A. Shubman Gill has been appointed captain, as he represents a futuristic vision. Looking ahead to 2027, the World Cup is a primary focus, especially since the tournament will be held in India. This decision was taken keeping this tournament in mind. They could have kept Rohit Sharma as captain, but that’s the selectors’ perspective—they are thinking long-term.
