Why Hardik Pandya Didn’t Get The Captaincy: The Real Reason Revealed! Hardik Pandya’s name keeps popping up in the news. One minute it’s rumors about a divorce with his wife Natasa, the next it’s the drama about him not being named India’s T20 captain.
Last Thursday, the BCCI announced the Indian squads for the upcoming Sri Lanka tour, with Rohit Sharma staying on as ODI captain and a surprise pick – Suryakumar Yadav – leading the T20 team.

Everyone thought Hardik Pandya, who was the vice-captain during the 2024 T20 World Cup, would be the next captain. But that wasn’t the case.
At first, we heard it was because of Hardik’s spotty fitness record. But now, media reports are spilling the real tea. According to sources, chief selector Ajit Agarkar and head coach Gautam Gambhir weren’t on board with Hardik leading the T20 squad.
Apparently, Suryakumar Yadav fostered a better team environment, on and off the field, compared to Hardik.
Sure, Hardik captained the Gujarat Titans to an IPL championship in 2022, but they were runners-up in 2023, and his captaincy with the Mumbai Indians in 2024 wasn’t exactly impressive.

This all led to him being dropped from the captaincy role and even the vice-captain spot. It’s pretty clear the BCCI isn’t seeing Hardik as captain material anymore.
