India's Suryakumar Yadav might lead the Men in Blue in the upcoming T20I series against Ireland if ace all-rounder Hardik Pandya is rested for the 3 matches that begin on 18th August.
As per reports, team management is planning on resting Hardik Pandya after the West Indies series to keep him fresh for the Asia Cup and World Cup which are slated to take place in the latter half of the year.
Both players will feature in the 3 ODIs and 5 T20Is that India will play against the Windies. While Hardik Pandya will assist regular skipper Rohit Sharma in the ODIs, Suryakumar Yadav who is currently the no. 1 ranked T20I player will assist the 29-year-old in the 20-over games.
