Don't Know What The Criteria Is, K.L Rahul Says On Pujara Being Named Vice-captain For Bangladesh Tests

By IANS News December 12, 2022 • 20:58 PM View: 1127

K.L. Rahul, the stand-in skipper for the first Test against Bangladesh, on Monday expressed ignorance about Cheteshwar Pujara being named as India vice-captain instead of Rishabh Pant and said he did not know what was the criteria for such a decision.

There was a little bit of surprise when the BCCI named Pujara as vice-captain for Tests against Bangladesh as the now-sacked selection committee had said Rishabh Pant and Rahul were being groomed as future leaders of the Indian team. Asked about the same, Rahul didn't go much into the specifics of the vice-captaincy change.
