If Suryakumar Yadav will be the captain, then Axar Patel will have the vice-captaincy of Team India

After winning the T20 World Cup 2024, Rohit Sharma announced his retirement. After this, the responsibility of coaching Team India was handed over to Gautam Gambhir in place of Rahul Dravid and as soon as he became the coach, he handed over the command of T20 to Suryakumar Yadav. Since Suryakumar Yadav became the permanent captain of Team India, the Indian team has played a total of 15 matches, in which India won 13 and lost 2.
