Ex-India Star Names Clear Pick For Next Test Captain: "I Am Shocked...."

Former Indian cricket team batter Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Jasprit Bumrah should be the top option to replace Rohit Sharma as the Test captain. Rohit announced his retirement from Test cricket and five days later, Virat Kohli also followed suit. With the England series taking place in June, the selectors will have to choose the next captain of the Indian cricket team. Bumrah captained the side in Rohit's absence during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia but several media reports claimed that Shubman Gill is the top contender for the job right now. Manjrekar was 'shocked' that Bumrah was not the only option for captaincy and said that if the selectors are concerned about his fitness, they should choose a vice-captain who can handle the situation in his absence.

On Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli's Test Retirement, R Ashwin's Blunt 'Gautam Gambhir Remark'

Former Indian cricket team spinner R Ashwin believes that the absence of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will cause a major 'leadership vacuum' in the upcoming Test series against England. Virat announced his retirement from Test cricket on Monday - just days after a similar decision by Rohit. As a result, the BCCI selectors now have the responsibility of picking the next Indian cricket team skipper. During the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, Jasprit Bumrah captained the side in absence of Rohit. While some media reports claimed that Shubman Gill is a top contender for the job, Ashwin believes that Bumrah deserves the captaincy but ultimately left the decision with the selectors.

R Ashwin Disagrees With Timing Of Rohit Sharma's Retirement: "Should've Played Till..."

Decorated off-spinner R Ashwin has rooted for Jasprit Bumrah to take the captaincy mantle after Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli's sudden Test retirements left a leadership vacuum in India's red-ball setup. Rohit bid adieu to Test cricket last Wednesday, and a couple of days later, Virat bid his farewell to the format with a heartfelt note on Instagram. Ashwin, who had no clue about India's batting bigwigs' intentions to retire together, feels "testing time" lies ahead for Indian cricket, and their decision "truly" marks the beginning of the 'Gautam Gambhir' era.

Sunil Gavaskar Snubs Shubman Gill, Wants This Star To Replace Rohit Sharma As Test Captain

Rohit Sharma's exit as India's Test captain has posed a big question in front of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selection committee. The Ajit Agarkar-led panel has to select a new captain and a vice-captain for the national team in the Test format, especially as Rohit's deputy Jasprit Bumrah has reportedly ruled himself out of the captaincy race. Bumrah looked like the natural candidate to succeed Rohit but his injury record made the board to consider other candidates.

"Can't Believe...": Ex-India Coach Ravi Shastri Left Stunned By Virat Kohli's Test Retirement

After one of the greatest batters to don the Test whites for India Virat Kohli shocked many with his decision to step down from the longest format, former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh hailed the ‘fighter' spirit that 36-year-old displayed in Tests and said he was proud of what the talismanic batter has achieved. "Test cricket brought out the fighter in you and you gave it everything! You played the way greats do, with hunger in your heart, fire in your belly and pride in every stride. Proud of what you've done in whites. Go well, King Kohli! @imVkohli," posted Yuvraj on ‘X'

Jasprit Bumrah's Huge Decision As India's Test Captaincy Race Heats Up After Rohit Sharma's Retirement: Report

Jasprit Bumrah has reportedly taken himself out of the running to become India's next Test captain, according to Sky Sports News. Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant have now emerged as the top candidates to replace Rohit Sharma, who announced his retirement from Test cricket recently. Although Bumrah was widely seen as the favourite for the role, he is understood to have informed the selectors that he cannot commit to playing all five matches in long Test series because of workload concerns. With India set to play five Tests against England, the selectors are said to prefer someone who can play the entire series consistently.

Shubman Gill Set To Lead India In Tests, Claims Report. Says Vice-Captain Will Be...

Flamboyant keeper-batter Rishabh Pant, in all likelihood, will be India's new vice-captain in Tests with talented batter Shubman Gill set to take charge of the national team in the traditional format. The choice of vice-captain seems to be a straight forward one as Pant is one of India' finest Test batters in overseas conditions and Jasprit Bumrah can't be considered for the role of deputy due to his stature and also when his own fitness is iffy, making him uncertain for full series. An average of 42 plus with hundreds in Australia, England and South Africa along with seven scores between 90 and 99 makes Pant of the best batters in the format.

"Not Easy Being...": Anil Kumble Wants This Player To Lead India In Upcoming England Test Series

Rohit Sharma called time on his Test career on Wednesday. It was a surprising announcement by the right-handed batter, who was the Test captain of the side by the last series that India played in the format. Rohit's retirement leaves a big void that the Indian cricket team needs to fill. Not only the batter, but India need a captain as well to replace him in the format. The side begins its World Test Championship campaign with a five-match series against England on latter's home soil, starting June 20. While the selection committee is yet to reveal who would be the leader during the outing, former India player Anil Kumble feels that the team should go ahead with Jasprit Bumrah.
