Will Jasprit Bumrah Become India’s Captain? Let’s Take a Look

Fast bowlers taking on the role of captain is a hot topic, especially after Australia’s Pat Cummins led his team to victory in the ICC World Test Championship and ODI World Cup. The question now arises – can India’s fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah be the ideal successor to Rohit Sharma as captain?

Cummins, at 30, has been impressive as a leader and as a bowler. Under his captaincy, Australia secured the World Test Championship and their sixth ODI World Cup title. Cummins managed both responsibilities effectively, playing a crucial role in taking wickets while leading the team in 41 matches across formats.

Bumrah, also 30, has captained the Indian team on three occasions, showcasing his leadership skills. Despite being the leading wicket-taker in the ongoing series against England, he was rested for the fourth Test to manage his workload.

Former South African cricketer Dale Steyn believes that managing Bumrah’s workload is crucial for his career longevity. He acknowledges the abundance of fast-bowling talent in India with players like Shami and Siraj. According to Steyn, the communication between Bumrah and the team management about his playing schedule is vital, and he commends India’s current fast-bowling strength, highlighting the positive shift from the spin-dominated past.
