Cheteshwar Pujara would have been wise to replace Jasprit Bumrah as captain, claims former Indian cricketer


Posted on 1st Jul 2022 05:00 pm by rohit kumar

The rescheduled Test match is to be played between India and England at the Edgbaston ground in Birmingham from today. Rohit Sharma has not been able to recover from Kovid-19 and for this reason, Jasprit Bumrah has been given command of the team, while Rishabh Pant will be the vice-captain of the team. Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer believes that it would have been a better decision to give the captaincy to Cheteshwar Pujara instead of Bumrah. Bumrah has no experience of captaincy by any means. Jaffer believes that Pujara's superior experience as a captain and player makes him a better option than Bumrah.

 

Jaffer said on Cricinfo, 'I have seen Pujara captaining in first-class cricket, he is a good leader. He has played around 90 (actually 95) Test matches, so I think it would have been a better decision to make him the captain. The last Test match of the five-match series that started last year is now to be played from today. Team India is currently leading the series 2-1 with two wins in the first four Test matches.

 

In the first four matches of the series, Virat Kohli took charge of Team India. The head coach was Ravi Shastri. Now Rohit Sharma is the captain, but he is unable to play this match due to being Corona positive.
