Wasim Jaffer does not agree with Shubman Gill as a nominee of India Test Captain | Cricket News

Former Indian opener Wasim Jaffer suggested that Shubman Gill had to lead India’s test team during the upcoming England tour when Jasprit Bumrah had to be heard. The captain debate concentrated after Rohit Sharma’s post -test retirement, and India was prepared for a five -game series on June 20 at Headingley.Jaffer expressed his views on the social media platform X and expressed his views: “I think bumrah is a choice of automatic captain unless he wants responsibility. Gill must be the captain of Gill as VC – Bumrah enters when he needs to be rest.Gill, who is currently the leading Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, is among the few candidates who are considered for the test captain with Bumrah, Kl Rahul and Rishabh Pant.Bumrah ruled India, including a victory in Perth during the last year’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia.However, Bumrah’s fitness continues to be a concern for the Tour of England. During the post -test in Sydney, he suffered a back injury and prevented bowling in the second strokes.The same back injury, which required surgery at the beginning of 2023, caused Bumrah to miss the successful 2025 Champions Cup campaign in Dubai.
