Having lifted the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, Suryakumar Yadav has already set his sights on the Olympic Games and the next edition of the tournament. Immediately after the victory on Sunday night, the India skipper declared that an Olympic gold medal is now the team's next target.
Rohit Sharma had announced his retirement immediately after India's 2024 World Cup triumph in Barbados. In a similar situation, there had been considerable anticipation around Suryakumar Yadav's future plans. With this latest announcement, there is now clarity on how India will shape its preparations over the next two years.
The Olympic Games will be held in Los Angeles in August 2028, while the next edition of the T20 World Cup will be played later that year in Australia and New Zealand.
