Ex-India Star Picks "24-Carat Gold" Player To Succeed Rohit Sharma As Test Captain
Former Indian cricket team opener Aakash Chopra believes that Rishabh Pant can end up replacing Rohit Sharma as the Test captain in the near future. Chopra went on to call Pant a '24-carat gold' Test cricketer and said that a 'gamechanger' like the wicket-keeper batter can be perfect as a long-term replacement of Rohit. Chopra also named Shubman Gill as a possible alternative along with Pant and although not much is known about his captaincy skills, the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season will see the opener lead Gujarat Titans after the departure of Hardik Pandya. On the other hand, Pant is expected to make his long-awaited return from injury and he will also be leading the Delhi Capitals franchise.
