IT has been a topic of debate since Jasprit Bumrah walked off the field in the fifth Test between India and Australia earlier this year.
IT has been a topic of debate since Jasprit Bumrah walked off the field in the fifth Test between India and Australia earlier this year. Back then, there were question marks over whether Rohit Sharma will continue, and if he doesn't, who will be considered as the next in line for Test captaincy. One aspect of it is now settled.
Rohit is no longer an international Test cricketer. The Indian captain has called it a day and now, the ball is in the court of the senior men's selection committee headed by Ajit Agarkar to name a new captain and vice-captain for the five-Test series beginning on June 20. Among the names floated, India's No 3 Shubman Gill seems to be the front-runner. The 25-year-old has been groomed as a future captain by the BCCI and selectors for at least a year now. He was named the T20I skipper for the tour of Zimbabwe shortly after the T20 World Cup last year. Earlier in February, he was named Rohit's deputy in the 50-over format as he is groomed to take over from the former in the future. So, there is little doubt that he will be captaining India in all formats down the line.
