Ending all speculation about Virat Kohli's successor, BCCI has named Rohit Sharma as India's T20 international captain. KL Rahul has been appointed as the vice-captain of the team.

BCCI has also announced a 16-man squad for the upcoming T20 home series against New Zealand.

Virat Kohli has been rested for the series and the name of injury-troubled all-rounder Hardik Pandya also didn't feature in the list.

Venkatesh Iyer and Harshal have earned their maiden India call-up after impressive performances in the second phase of IPL.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant , Ishan Kishan, Yuzvendra Chahal, R Ashwin, Axar Patel, Avesh Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Mohd. Siraj are part of the team.
