As expected, Gill has been announced as the new Indian captain. Not in favour of Pant as his deputy, as they needs to really buck up.
What surprised me the most is the exclusion of Shreyas Iyer-really wonder what the grounds are here. Side lining him after a stellar year just doesn't make any sense at all.

Sarfaraz dropped 10kg for nothing

It's mind boggling that Shreyas has been left out. He should have walked in as captain let alone as a player after a stellar year in domestic cricket.
Gill the batsman has not been up to the mark so far and I hope that changes for the better. There are some good selection in Easwaran, Sai Sudarshan, Karun and Arshdeep. It's a shame that Shami isn't fit enough at the moment to bowl long spells. He would have been a real asset in English conditions.
Sarfaraz on the other hand is rightly dropped as he needs to work on his technique for now. He is a wonderful player who likes to play on the up which is not easy in SENA and we have seen him struggling because of that. He is too good a player to be wasted. Hopefully he recognizes this and works hard on his technique.
Apart from Shreyas, I reckon Axar should have had a look in too but I understand they wanted an off spinner in the team as we already have Jaddu covering the role that Axar would have been in for.

"Two words: Gill"What a glorious day for Gill fan! How about revoking his ban for 24 hours ?
I also noticed Easwaran's name in the squad. If so, we might be looking at a new opening pair.
