Pujara Backs Bumrah As A Long-term Captaincy Option For India.
ICC World Test Championship: Indian batter Cheteshwar Pujara has endorsed pace-ace Jasprit Bumrah as a viable long-term captaincy candidate for India, once Rohit Sharma steps down. Pujara’s comments come in the wake of Bumrah’s exemplary leadership during India’s recent triumph against Australia, where he showcased his ability to lead under immense pressure.
Pujara lauded Bumrah’s leadership qualities and his team-first attitude. "He is (a viable long-term captaincy option) without any doubt," Pujara said on ESPN Cricinfo. "The way he has showed that in difficult circumstances when we had a tough series at home and when you are playing a first Test match in Australia and to put up a show like that."
"I think he has the capability of leading the team and he's a team's man. You look at him he never only talks about himself, he talks about the team, the other players. What advice he would give," he added.
