- India’s WTC 2025-27 cycle will begin with the Test series against England. There is every possibility that there may be changes in the Indian team in the new cycle. Not only this, changes can also be made in the captaincy and vice-captaincy
WTC 2025-27: India’s current WTC cycle ended after losing the Test series against Australia. Now Team India will try to reach the final by performing brilliantly in the next cycle. India’s WTC 2025-27 cycle will start with the Test series against England. There is every possibility that there may be a change in the Indian team in the new cycle. Not only this, changes can also be made in the captaincy and vice-captaincy. Now who can BCCI give the responsibility of captaincy of India in the new cycle? Let’s know
These two players will handle the captaincy and vice-captaincy of India in WTC 2025-27
Rohit Sharma is currently 37 years old. In such a situation, he can’t remain fit in Test cricket due to his increasing age. His recent performance in Test cricket has also not been very good. This is the reason why BCCI is looking for someone else as captain in his place in the WTC 2025-27 cycle. If media reports are to be believed, coach Gautam Gambhir wants to make Jasprit Bumrah the captain in Tests after Rohit Sharma. Looking at the future, he is looking at Yashasvi Jaiswal in the role of vice-captain.
Responsibility may be on the shoulders of Jaspreet Bumrah and Yashasvi Jaiswal
Let us tell you that Yashasvi Jaiswal had shown a good performance on the Australia tour. His batting was excellent. The special thing is that not only on the Australia tour but Jaiswal scored runs in Test cricket on every occasion. He was the highest run-scorer in Test cricket for India last year.
No batsman of India is even close to him. This is the reason why there is a discussion in the report about giving him the vice-captaincy. So that he becomes mature enough to handle the captaincy in the future. If we talk about Jasprit Bumrah, the report claims that he is the best option for captaincy in Tests. This is the reason why he can get this responsibility in WTC 2025-27
Bumrah got injured many times
It is worth noting that there is no problem with Jasprit Bumrah’s captaincy. He is a great player and always performs well. But there is a problem with him. He often gets injured. It is known that recently he got injured against Australia, due to which he missed the Champions Trophy. Earlier he missed the 2022 T20 World Cup. During this time he was out of the cricket field for a whole year. In such a situation, giving captaincy to Bumrah in WTC 2025-27 can be a bit risky decision.
