<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: The Indian cricket board (BCCI) is set to get in a huddle to discuss Suryakumar Yadav<\/a>\u2019s future in the T20I team. TOI understands that there\u2019s a strong possibility that the current T20 captain, who led the team to successfully defend the T20 title in March, may not be asked to attend the next selection meeting for the white-ball tour of Ireland and England later this month.The selection meeting, it is learnt, will be either held in Chandigarh or Mumbai around the one-off Test between India and Afghanistan from June 6. The matter will be discussed on the sidelines of the BCCI\u2019s apex council meeting on Thursday.TOI had first reported on April 18 that Surya\u2019s position has been under scanner with the selectors mooring a new captain. On May 31, TOI reported that Surya was omitted from the long list of probables for this year\u2019s Asian Games<\/a> since the selectors wanted to try new captaincy options as they are preparing a succession plan.ALSO READ: <\/span>Suryakumar Yadav’s successor needs unanimity, can Gambhir-Agarkar see eye-to-eye?<\/a>It is learnt that Shreyas Iyer<\/a>, Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson are the contenders. There\u2019s also an idea floated that vice-captain Axar Patel may be allowed to take charge on an interim basis to let Iyer and Varma settle down in the team. Shubman Gill is asked to focus on Test and ODI cricket at the moment.Surya has endured a prolonged slump in form in international cricket since the 2024 T20 World Cup. He struggled to regain his form in this IPL as well. It will be very difficult for the selectors to bet on the 35-year-old for the LA Olympics in 2028 and next T20 World Cup in 2028.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
