A new Team India era loading? BCCI's plan could change Indian cricket forever

Cricket

BCCI's big plan?

BCCI may soon have two separate India T20 teams for different matches. This big change could give more new players a chance to play.

Captaincy reward for Shreyas Iyer?

After leading well in IPL 2026, Shreyas Iyer might captain one of the new T20 teams. This could be the biggest step up in his captaincy career yet.

The big number

BCCI might make a talent pool of 30-35 players, giving more regular chances to consistent IPL performers and helping India build team depth.

Many in-form IPL players waiting for a chance could now get picked for India. Good IPL performances may directly lead to national team selection.

Competition for top players?

With more players in the running, even top names may have to work harder to keep their spots. A big selection battle could be coming.

Busy schedules and workload issues may be pushing BCCI to try two squads. This could help India stay strong in all formats and tours.

If this plan happens, India’s T20 setup could change a lot, with Shreyas Iyer possibly playing a key role in this new chapter.
