Sunil Gavaskar wants Jasprit Bumrah to take over India’s captaincy from Rohit Sharma when the time comes. He said that Bumrah has the qualities of a captain and he doesn’t make his teammates feel too ‘pressurised’.

The speedster was India's skipper during the only victory in the series, which was in Perth, pushing them to take a 1-0 lead straightaway as the tour began.

The legendary Sunil Gavaskar is in awe of Jasprit Bumrah`s leadership qualities and reckons the peerless fast bowler will succeed Rohit Sharma as the next captain of the Indian team following his extraordinary display in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

It is quite well-established that has been the person to go to, to address any sort of crisis being faced by the Indian side over the years. The pacer has delivered the goods on several occasions. The 2024-25 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy saw him sparkle throughout the series.
