Future Indian captain?

[FischerTal]

With Dhoni most likely to retire in another 2-3 years, the BCCI has to start grooming a new captain, like the way Australia did with Clarke and England with Cook. Many eligible names come up that could take this mantle in the future. On this thread, we will discuss the pros and cons of different names proposed. As of now, I believe 3 players are in reckoning for future Indian captain in tests and ODIs. 1) Che pujara 2) Virat kohli 3) R Ashwin 4) Suresh Raina 5) Sir Ravindra Jadeja 6) Unmukt Chand 7) Rohit Sharma Who do you think is deserving? I believe it is che pujara, as he has shown temperance on the cricket field with 2 double centuries already in the kitty. Also, he doesnt abuse anyone or seek to downplay others, which is a good quality for a captain. PS: As the retirement of Dhoni approaches, more names will be added and discussed with the current 3. Lets go :cheer:

Ashwin is not captaincy material. It will either be Pujara or Kohli. But for Pujara to be captain he needs to play other formats as well.

Dhoni will play and captain for another 7-8 years.

:(( that is a realistic possibility with dhobi, but i dont think he will play tests that long. he will probably switch to LOIs.

[Junyfan]

Pujara or Kohli,:nervous:
