Not Jasprit Bumrah, Shubman Gill Or Rishabh Pant: Ex-Chief Selector Names Surprising Test Captaincy Pick
Ahead of India announcing its new Test captain while unveiling the squad for the important five-match tour of England, former wicketkeeper-batter Saba Karim has backed Shubman Gill for the leadership role. On the other hand, former chief selector Kiran More said he would prefer KL Rahul to be the side's new Test captain. Ever since Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from Tests earlier this month, Gill has been seen as a front-runner for the full-time leadership role. Rahul has captained India earlier in three Tests, and has recently been seen as a certainty in the longer format scheme of things.
