IND vs ENG: ‘I won’t be able to play’ – Jasprit Bumrah reveals why he declined Team India captaincy

Jasprit Bumrah, initially a frontrunner for India’s Test captaincy, withdrew from consideration due to workload concerns. Despite being the vice-captain, Bumrah communicated to the BCCI his inability to play all matches in a five-Test series, prioritizing the team’s stability. Shubman Gill was subsequently named captain for the England series, starting June 20 in Leeds. Jasprit Bumrah, initially a frontrunner for India’s Test captaincy, withdrew from consideration due to workload concerns.
