Gambhir wants Yashasvi Jaiswal as next India captain after Rohit Sharma

One of the many topics discussed during the recent BCCI review meeting in Mumbai was the future Indian captain in Test and ODI cricket. Rohit Sharma, despite his captaincy coming under scrutiny in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy series amid a meagre return to the bat, reportedly told the selectors that he would remain the captain until the board appoints his successor.

However, a fresh report in revealed that coach Gautam Gambhir and the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee identified Rohit's captaincy replacement, but found themselves at loggerheads.

On Sunday, the national daily reported that Rohit threw the ball in BCCI's court after telling the selectors that 'he will remain the captain' until the board picks the next skipper in Tests and ODIs. The 37-year-old, whose form left selectors worried, further added that he will fully support his successor.

It was then decided that Rohit will remain the captain in ODIs for the Champions Trophy, with the selectors to decide on the future after the end of the tournament.

On Monday, a fresh report from Dainik Jagran said that amid the discussion on the possibility of Jasprit Bumrah taking over the reins from Rohit being assessed during the review meeting, the need for a strong vice-captain was also discussed in a bid to manage the fast bowler's workload management. However, while the selectors Rishabh Pant to become the next captain in Test cricket, Gambhir backed Yashasvi Jaiswal.
