Sanjay Manjrekar Rubbishes BCCI's Logic For Not Making Jasprit Bumrah Captain: "Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma..."

Shubman Gill being appointed as India's Test captain meant that pacer Jasprit Bumrah missed out. Bumrah - the No. 1 ranked Test bowler in the world as per the ICC rankings - was not considered due to his injury-prone nature and concerns over fitness and workload. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar confirmed that Bumrah is likely to play no more than three Tests in the upcoming five-match series against England in June. However, despite these reasons, former India cricketer and renowned expert Sanjay Manjrekar expressed his disappointment at Bumrah not being considered for captaincy.

"Strange Team Selection": Ex-India Star's Blunt Verdict On Shubman Gill-Led 18-Member Squad For England Test Series

Former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar on Saturday described India's 18-strong Test squad for the tour of England as "strange" but asked for a patient approach towards newly-appointed Test captain Shubman Gill. India will play five Tests against England starting June 20, and batting star Gill has been handed the responsibility to steer the team during a "massive transition" phase following the retirement of top stars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. "Strange team selection overall. But India go to England with nothing to lose. It's a team in transition so we can only wish it the very best & yes, be patient when it comes to returns on investment.#indianteam," Manjrekar, a former batter, wrote on his 'X' handle without explaining the reasons for his observation.

Shubman Gill's Credentials Doubted, Overseas Numbers "Not Healthy As Batter, Let Alone As Captain"

Shubman Gill era has begun in Indian cricket. The 25-year-old star was named the captain of the Indian cricket squad for the Tour of England starting June 20. At 25, Gill has become one of the youngest players to hold the position in recent years. Though he lacks captaincy experience in the red-ball format, he has led India in a five-match T20I assignment in Zimbabwe in 2024. Gill has also been captaining the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Gill has also served as vice-captain in ODIs and T20Is. He was Rohit Sharma's deputy in India's victorious Champions Trophy campaign in the UAE in February 2025. In Test cricket, Gill has played 32 matches and scored 1,893 runs, including five centuries.

"When guys like that retire, they are stalwarts of cricket...it is always difficult, (their) shoes are very big to fill. But one way of looking at it is, that it's an opportunity for others," Agarkar told the media after announcing India's 18-member squad for the five-Test series starting June 20.
