Former India batter Shikhar Dhawan reacted to Shreyas Iyer taking over as India T20I captain and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's maiden India call-up saying, "A special moment for both Shreyas and Vaibhav...Well deserved, boys." BCCI had earlier announced Shreyas taking over the captaincy role from Suryakumar Yadav and 15-year-old Sooryavanshi's inclusion in the T20I series against England and Ireland.
