Won’t Be Surprised If Bumrah Takes Over Test Captaincy Very Soon: Gavaskar
World Test Championship: Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar said he won’t be surprised if fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah takes over as the side’s Test captain in near future, citing that he doesn’t pressurise players much when he’s been at the helm of the team.
In India’s recent 3-1 defeat to Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Bumrah captained the visitors’ in two games, one of which was a 295-run series opening match in Perth. “He will be the next man, because he leads from the front. He's got a very good air about him, the air of a leader, but he’s not somebody who's going to put pressure on you. Sometimes you have captains who put a lot of pressure on you.
“With Bumrah you can see that he expects the others to do what their job is, why they are in the national team, but he doesn't seem to pressurise anybody. With the fast bowlers, he's been absolutely brilliant, standing at mid-off, mid-on, and every time just being at hand to tell them. I think he was absolutely brilliant, and I won't be surprised if he takes over very soon,” said Gavaskar on Channel Seven on Wednesday.
