November 22 was an eventful day in cricket, with multiple reports of India’s future coming to the fore. Shubman Gill is unlikely to feature in the IND vs SA ODIs and Rishabh Pant may take his place as captain.

He is currently captaining the Indian team in the IND vs SA 2nd Test in the absence of Shubman Gill. Read more here.
