How India's T20I XI Could Look Like With Only U-25 Players

Here's how Team India might look like heading into the future with players who currently below the age of 25
It is fair to stay that Team India will be entering a new era after the conclusion of the ODI World Cup later this year. Veteran stars Virat Kohli (34) and Rohit Sharma (36) have carried the baton for nearly a decade. But, as they say, all good things must come to an end. While the change might not be imminent, the selectors will have to do it eventually, especially with the T20 World Cup set to be held next year in West Indies and USA. Hardik Pandya has led the team in the absence of Rohit, who is currently the all-format captain, but his injury record makes it a catch-22 situation.
Having said that, here's how Team India might look like heading into the future with players who currently below the age of 25.

Yashasvi Jaiswal took the Indian Premier League by storm. During the recently concluded season, Jaiswal slammed 625 runs in 14 matches at an average of 48.07. He has been included in India's Test squad for the West Indies tour next month.
Shubman Gill: Before Virat Kohli, India had Sachin Tendulkar. In the future, Shubman Gill is likely to carry the superstar tag. He is the latest prodigy of India's familial batting production line, having already registered a century at least in all three formats. He is most likely to lead the team in the future.
