Team India’s performance in the Border Gavaskar Trophy will make it clear how long Rohit will captain the Test team in the future. If Team India loses badly in this series and fails to qualify for the final of the World Test Championship, then Rohit Sharma may be seen announcing his retirement as soon as the series ends. In such a situation, Bumrah will captain the upcoming matches.
