The Indian cricket team is going to face Australia on November 22 in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series. Rohit Sharma will not be able to play in this match due to personal reasons, as he is currently present in Mumbai due to the birth of his second child. He will join the team before the second Test to be held in Adelaide.

So in the absence of Rohit, Jasprit Bumrah will be seen captaining the team. Bumrah is currently playing the role of vice-captain in Test cricket. This will be the second time when Bumrah will be seen captaining the Indian team in the biggest format of the game. Before this, Bumrah has captained in the rescheduled Test match against England in the year 2022.

On the other hand, in the pre-match conference held before the first match of BGT to be held in Perth, captain Jasprit Bumrah was seen correcting a reporter who mistakenly called him a medium pace fast bowler.

Here is Bumrah’s amazing moment in the press conference.

Question – How does it feel to captain India as a medium pace all-rounder?

Jasprit Bumrah – Man, I can bowl at a speed of 150 kmph, at least you fast bowler captain says so (laughs)

I am one of the supporters of fast bowling captains: Bumrah

On the other hand, in this conference, Jasprit Bumrah has been seen supporting the fast bowling captains in Test cricket. So in the past, Bumrah has been seen many times being vocal about taking command of the Indian team.

Bumrah further said- I have been one of the supporters, there are many such examples, fast bowlers are smart. Pat Cummins has been successful, Kapil Dev did it before, hopefully this is the start of a new approach.
