Explained: Why T20 captain SKY missed out on ODI team; How Riyan Parag got into both squads

Gill assumes vice-captaincy in both formats, while Riyan Parag, Khaleel Ahmed get called up for both formats.

The limited-overs tour of Sri Lanka beginning on July 27 was supposed to cast the net wider and scout the fringes. Instead with new head coach Gautam Gambhir coming in, India have set the ball rolling with a focussed eye on the future with their role-specific selections.

Apart from Suryakumar Yadav taking over the reins of the T20I team ahead of Hardik Pandya, there were quite a few inclusions and exclusions from the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee which show which way the team is heading in the next three years.
