Is Captaincy Of Team India Going To Be Snatched From Rohit Sharma? BCCI Gave Hints, There May Be A Big Decision Soon

The Indian team had to face a crushing defeat from Australia in the World Test Championship final. India lost the final by 209 runs, after which questions have started to arise on the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Earlier under the captaincy of Rohit, India had to face defeat in the Asia Cup and T20 World Cup as well. Due to this sequence of defeats in consecutive tournaments, now his captaincy is under threat. It is being said that BCCI can take a big decision on Rohit Sharma soon.

Decision will be taken after West Indies tour

If reports are to be believed, BCCI will sit with Rohit Sharma after the West Indies tour and decide on his captaincy. People expected that Rohit would end India's ICC trophy drought with his captaincy like in IPL, but under Sharma's captaincy, India's team kept getting weaker and lost one tournament after another.

BCCI started looking for options

In view of the next cycle of WTC, the discussion of change in the captaincy of Team India intensified. Rohit has also turned 35, in such a situation BCCI has started thinking about new options. It is being said that the Test team can be completely transformed. Youngsters can be given a chance and senior players can be shown the way out. Along with the team, the coaching management is also expected to be discharged.

Captaincy options

1. Ajinkya Rahane

Ajinkya Rahane is also a senior player, who has proved his captaincy. India has not lost a Test match under Rahane's captaincy till date. Rahane has also made a great comeback in the WTC final. He has attracted the attention of the selectors with his performance. In such a situation, he will be a good choice for the captaincy of the next round of Test Championship in place of Rohit.

2. KL Rahul

In the absence of Rohit Sharma, Rahul has assumed the responsibility of Test captaincy of the team. Rahul also has a lot of captaincy experience in IPL. However, if Rahul has to become a contender for the captaincy, then he will have to improve his batting and perform well for the team.

3. Rishabh Pant

BCCI is looking at Rishabh Pant as the future captain. He is young, so he is considered a strong contender for the captaincy. Pant also does wicket-keeping along with great batting. Talking about captaincy, Rishabh Pant takes charge of Delhi Capitals in IPL. He has a fair amount of captaincy experience.
