Bumrah emerges as strong contender for ODI vice-captaincy

Pace Maestro Jasprit Bumrah is emerging as a compelling candidate for the role of vice-captain in the Indian cricket team, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the dynamic all-rounder, Hardik Pandya, for the Forthcoming Asia Cup and ODI World Cup, Commencing October 5th.
While Pandya Takes the Helm as the T20I Captain, Bumrah, Making a Resounding International Comeback in the On-going T20I Series Against Ireland, Appears Poised to Offer Stiff Competition to the Energetic All-Rounder from Baroda.
In Terms of Leadership Experience, Bumrah Holds a Seniority Edge, Having Led the Test Team in 2022 and Also Serving as the ODI Vice-Captain Ahead of Pandya During the South Africa Tour.” Don’t be surprised if you see Bumrah being made ODI deputy to Rohit for both Asia Cup and World Cup. There is a reason why he was handed captaincy in Ireland instead of Ruturaj,” a source told. Pandya has had a successful stint as IPL skipper for Gujarat Titans, leading the team to the title in its maiden appearance in 2022 and to runners-up finish in 2023. However, a lot of people feel that a shrewd tactician like Ashish Nehra has also played a lot of role in Gujarat Titans’ success. As far as the Indian team is concerned, Pandya lost his first bilateral series (T20I) in the West Indies where some of his decisions like not bowling Axar Patel or bringing Mukesh Kumar at the death were criticised.
