NEW DELHI: India's star pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who served as the vice-captain during the Test series against England earlier this year, will not hold the same position in the upcoming first Test against Bangladesh. Although he remains a part of the squad, Bumrah will play as a regular team member rather than being Rohit Sharma's deputy.
Bumrah is regarded as a key leader within the team, along with KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Virat Kohli. While Kohli has opted to avoid any official leadership roles, Rahul and Pant are seen as potential future Test captains. Interestingly, the team has not designated a vice-captain for the Bangladesh series.
