What did Captain Gill say about ROKO?
Shubman Gill said in a press conference, "It hasn't been discussed yet. But there will be a significant gap for them after the ODI series against South Africa (December 6) ends and before the New Zealand series (January 11, 2026). Then we'll see how to keep these two veterans in touch. Perhaps a decision will be made then."
