On why Suryakumar Yadav was made the captain of T20, Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar said that he was a worthy candidate. He has been in the dressing room for more than a year and feedback has been received about him from the dressing room. He has a good understanding of cricket and he is still one of the best batsmen in the world in T20 cricket. He said that we wanted a captain who plays all the matches. We feel that he deserves to be the captain and we will see how he fits into this role.
Agarkar also said that we wanted a captain who has a good fitness record and who has no history of injuries. Regarding Hardik, Agarkar said that it is difficult to find skills like Hardik and it is difficult to find fitness. We have some more time and we can look into some things. He further said that Hardik is a very important player for us but fitness is a big challenge. We want a player who is available most of the time.
