“I don’t see Rohit going to England. I just felt that he says he will assess it when he gets home. I mean, the first thing he will be met with when he gets home is a two-month-old baby that he has to change the nappies on. Now that might incentivise him to go to England. But I don’t see him pressing on. I think he’ll probably have a crack at the Champions Trophy and that might be. That might see him out,” Gilchrist mentioned, talking on the Membership Prairie Fireplace podcast.
Gilchrist additionally threw in an attention-grabbing identify into the hat as a contender for India’s Check captain. That identify is none aside from Virat Kohli.
“I don’t know whether (Jasprit) Bumrah should be full-time captain. I reckon that might get a little bit challenging for him. So, who that next captain may be is anyone’s guess, really, whether they go back to Virat (Kohli). I wouldn’t be surprised if he wouldn’t mind doing it,” Gilchrist added.
However, former England captain Michael Vaughan did give his vote to Bumrah as India’s subsequent Check captain, but in addition said that Shubman Gill may very well be thought of because the vice-captain and a possible long-term captain.
“I would give the captain seat to Jasprit Bumrah, and the reason is the two performances that India were at their finest in Australia were Perth (first Test) and the SCG (fifth Test). And if he had not been injured, I honestly think they would have won that game,” he mentioned. I might have somebody like Shubman Gill because the vice-captain,” Vaughan said.
India’s subsequent Check choice headache will come round Could, forward of the five-Check tour of England starting June 20.
