Jasprit Bumrah captaincy : After the retirement of Rohit Sharma, Shubhman Gill has become captain in the Test. The debate about which has not diminished. According to many, Jashpreet Bumrah should be captain. There was that opportunity. But he said why he did not agree to take the leadership.
Bumrah says, “After the retirement of Rohit and Virat, I was talking to the BCCI. Then IPL was going on. I talked to the board about five Test matches workload. I also talked to those who treat me.
That means you have to play a little carefully. In fact, Bumrah often has problems with injury. So he did not want to lead himself. Because he kept the interests of the party first. Bumrah said, “I tell the BCCI that I am not thinking of leadership. Because I can’t play all the Test matches there. There is no need to lead the three Tests. Rather, the captain will be the captain. I have always wanted to keep the team.”
Bumrah led a Test in the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Again the captain in the last Test, but could not play for the injury. When the England tour team announced that, the selector Ajit Agarkar said, “We want him more as a bowler. I do not want to put the pressure on the player. I don’t want to put the pressure on his head. Bumrah is very important for us. And he knows how fit his body is.” This time Bumrah acknowledged it himself.
