Talent is important, but the consideration of temperament, experience, and long term goals is critical to guide the young players coming into the team to be successful. For India there are many candidates, some with positives, some with negatives. Let’s evaluate the candidates that are considered favourites from the LiveCricket crowds, professional panels and fan votes.

 

KL Rahul: The Quiet Tactician

KL Rahul tends to be the first name mentioned in red ball cricket when thinking of leaders; he has led India in Tests on a couple of occasions and already has a series win in Bangladesh with India. Because he is very calm and can hold up an innings, he is a good candidate. He has also been up and down with his form and has not played often due to injuries, which concerned fans on LiveCricket forums. 

 

Jasprit Bumrah: The X factor Bowler leader

Jasprit Bumrah made the news when he became the first fast bowler in a long time to captain India in a Test. Because of his aggressiveness, strategy and energy on the field, he makes a unique leader. A recent survey on LiveCricket showed more support for Bumrah as a captain, although managing his fitness could affect his availability.

 

Rishabh Pant: The Future Face?

Rishabh Pant is currently on the sidelines due to injury, but many people on LiveCricket believe he is a daring captaincy prospect long term. Pant already has a cult like following, and he has demonstrated exceptional grit for an overseas player and has already spoken like a brave captain. If Pant can return fully fit, he could be the fiery person to inspire the next generation of Indian cricket.

 

Ravindra Jadeja: The Skilful All Rounder

Ravindra Jadeja comes with ten years of Test experience and delivering match winning moments at home and away, plus an immense cricketing brain. He has not captained India yet, but with his consistency and seniority, he could be a solid interim captain while the BCCI looks for the next player.

 

Shubman Gill: Too Early?

Some fans are eyeing Shubman Gill on LiveCricket as a future captain, due to his brilliant technical skills coupled with the composure he displays. However, some believe it is too early for Shubman to shoulder that kind of responsibility when there are more experienced options available.

 

Conclusion

India's next Test captain will have a significant influenerey, aggression, or long term development, the choice could be real.
