Jasprit Bumrah has been made the vice-captain for the Test series against New Zealand.
Recently, a report came out regarding Team India captain Rohit Sharma, in which it was said that he may miss the first one or two matches of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Due to personal reasons, Hitman may miss the first two matches of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar series against Australia. Rohit has given this information to BCCI.
In such a situation, there is only one question in everyone’s mind that if not Rohit then who will captain Team India. The names of young players like Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill are also there in the minds of cricket experts, but now BCCI has indicated who can captain against Australia in the absence of Rohit Sharma.
Jaipreet Bumrah has been made vice-captain for the New Zealand series.
BCCI has announced the team for the upcoming three-match Test series against New Zealand. With this announcement, he has also announced the vice-captain of the team. Jasprit Bumrah has been chosen as Rohit Sharma’s deputy in the series against New Zealand. In such a situation, BCCI has made it clear that if Rohit Sharma is not in the team, then only Jasprit Bumrah will take the responsibility of captaincy.
In such a situation, when Team India goes on Australia tour, Jasprit Bumrah will be seen captaining in the first two test matches. Let us tell you that Jasprit Bumrah has earlier captained Team India in a Test match against England but he had to face defeat there.
Let us tell you that India’s tour of Australia is starting from 22nd. This tour will be special in many ways. Ever since the Border Gavaskar Trophy is being played between India and Australia, this will be the first time that a 5-match Test series will be played between the two countries. Earlier, there used to be a 4-4 match series between the two teams.
