Captain Shubman Gill will lead India for the first time in ODIs in the three-match series against Australia.

IND vs AUS ODI Series 2025: Less than a week after leading India to a 2-0 triumph over the West Indies in the Test series, Shubman Gill will take on a new challenge as he captains the Indian ODI side for the first time in a three-match series in Australia. The series against Australia kicks off on Oct. 19.
Team India arrived in Perth on Thursday, with senior players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma included in the squad. The series will also serve as a key platform for India as they begin preparations for the 2027 ICC ODI World Cup, which South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia will co-host.
Return Of Virat Kohli And Rohit Sharma
After a seven-month break from international cricket, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will make their much-anticipated comeback. Their last appearance for India came in March 2025, during the Champions Trophy final, which India won.
For the first time in an ODI series against Australia, both Kohli and Sharma, former captains themselves, will play under the leadership of young Gill.
Amid speculations that this ODI series could be the last for Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla said that retirement decisions rest entirely with the players. He dismissed any speculation that the series would mark their final international appearances.
