Virender Sehwag suggested Jasprit Bumrah as a vice captain for India
Virender Sehwag comes into the opinion that India must have a bolder captain which can lead India forward. Many are suggesting KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant’s names but Jasprit Bumrah came out nowhere in the syllabus.
“Your captain or vice-captain has to be someone who plays all three formats. So there can not be an option better than Jasprit Bumrah among players who feature in all three formats. No doubt, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant, among others, are certainly there. But do they play all three formats or will they continue to do so in the future? Will they be able to perform as consistently as Jasprit Bumrah?. He further said “There have been very few such occasions in Indian cricket, perhaps Kapil Dev was the only fast-bowler who captained India. And then Anil Kumble became captain as a pure bowler. Apart from these, there have not been any other fast-bowlers or spinners who became the captain or were good enough to be the captain or vice-captain candidate… But in today’s day and age, I think Jasprit Bumrah could be the best choice for India’s vice-captaincy,” said Sehwag.
