Can Jasprit Bumrah make India a winning team or do they need a batting captain?

NEW DELHI: Who will be India's next Test captain? It's a question that will keep buzzing in the BCCI corridors over the next few months, until the selectors huddle up sometime, maybe, in May to pick the team for the England tour in June. Until then, the debate could linger.

For many, the obvious choice is Jasprit Bumrah; but throw in the question of his workload management, and some of the ifs and buts start appearing. In Rohit Sharma's case, the jury is out, while the skipper himself seems to be on the edge of retirement. In fact, Timesofindia.com learned that he was ready to bow out after the fourth Test on the recently-concluded tour of Australia, but his "well-wishers" persuaded him to hang in for now.
