Everyone is baffled by the BCCI’s Vice-Captaincy decision

The vice-captain of Team India for the opening Test match against Bangladesh was not Jasprit Bumrah.

Jasprit Bumrah, a famous bowler, unexpectedly made the first Test squad despite rumors that he could be rested for the two-match Test series against Bangladesh. As India revealed their 16-man selection for the first game of the series on Sunday, wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant also confirmed his comeback to the Test team after almost 20 months away. other well-known players were left from the roster, while other huge names were back. The absence of a named vice-captain was another choice made by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selection committee that caused some concern.

In their most recent Test match, India faced England, and Jasprit Bumrah was selected vice-captain. But this time, the selection committee did not assign such a function, leaving supporters to question what went wrong.

Bumrah, along with players like Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Rishabh Pant, is regarded as one of the team’s leaders. While Rahul and Pant are also vying to be India’s long-term captains in the whites, Kohli is unwilling to take on an official leadership role in the team. However, none of them has been named the Bangladesh Tests vice-captain.

The decision to forego designating a vice-captain was also left unspoken by the board. When they speak at a news conference prior to the commencement of the Bangladesh Test series, India captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir are likely to encounter this query.

Having taken a sabbatical for the birth of his second kid earlier in the year, Virat Kohli missed the five-Test series against England at home but then made a comeback. Uncapped left-arm pacer from Uttar Pradesh Yash Dayal was called up for the first time in a Test match, while Mohammed Shami, who is still pursuing a comeback, was left out of the squad.
