Bumrah himself has reacted to not becoming the captain of the Indian Test team.

Jasprit Bumrah made a big disclosure

Talking to Sky Sports, Jaspreet Bumrah revealed and said, “I spoke to the BCCI before Rohit and Virat’s retirement and during the IPL that I have considered my workload before the Indo-England series. I have talked to those who manage/manage my back. We decided to be careful.”

Bumrah himself refused

Bumrah himself revealed, “After considering, I contacted BCCI and told that I do not want me to be seen as a captaincy alternative because I will not be able to play all 5 Tests in England. BCCI was watching me as captain, but I had to refuse for him because it is not a good thing that no more captaincy is doing in 3 Test matches, there is no other captaincy in the rest of the matches. Is, so I decided not to take captaincy by thinking in the interest of the team. “

Now on the tour of England, Shubman Gill will be captaining the Indian Test team for the first time. Please tell that Rishabh Pant was given the responsibility of vice -captain in the Test team. Gill will also be under pressure because Team India has not won any Test series in England for the last 18 years.
