If reports are true, how would you feel if your fav Lolhi returns as captain

[straighttalk]

Bumrah as good as he is..cannot play every match..so he being captain is hard.

 

Kohli is a good test match captain but his form is abysmal. Will captaincy give him a second life... motivate him to perform or shd he be dropped from the team altogether. Hai equation with Gambhir isn't good either.

 

Who else can cAptian the team? I see no one with performance or statute other than these two.

King back as the Captain and plays for another 3-4 years, Dream Come True for Kohli Fans.

Kohli is well over the hill, doesn't deserve to play as a batter and should not play as pure captain. Bumrah should be captain

If it happens, Indian cricket deserves its humiliation.

 

Will be fun watching it lose.

 

Kohli was a special test captain but that time has passed.

 

Dude shouldn't even make the squad let alone captain it.

 

And yes, he has asked for the captaincy role. Not just a blind rumour.

[Lord]

not going to happen

On the same topic, who will be captain when Bumrah isn't available?

 

Pant? Jaiswal? Gill?

[vvvslaxman]

Bumrah will be the captain as he did already.

Prepare Gill or Jaiswal as vice captain, let them be the understudy for Bumrah.

 

I am not much in favour of Pant as captain coz then his performance might take a hit, he is a happy child and should remain like that.

Most likely Pant. Jaiswal is too young. Gill is too raw. Also Pant is likely to play in all games. But we know KL Rahul may be made captain.

Ah, forgot KL.. That's the likely answer. KL will continue to play Tests for 4-5 years and be dropped from white ball (hopefully).

It'll be good for short term in tests. He was a very good test captain who promoted fast bowling. Siraj, Shami, Ishant, Yadav all had their best runs under him.

this is all 'leaked' by Rohit PR. So might be smear captain against Virat.  Reason I say that because he wasn't even vice captain.

 

But I'll take your word for it.

Lol.

 

This is why Indian cricket wont ever progress.

 

We all are nostalgic emotional fools.

 

Kohli and his team knows this so they are giving this a shot.
