Jasprit Bumrah was named the new captain of the Indian cricket team after Rohit Sharma was unable to lead the squad in the fifth rescheduled Test against England at Edgbaston. Bumrah became India’s 36th Test captain despite having no prior First-class, IPL, or List-A game captaincy experience. Here in this article, we talk about Virat Kohli conducts Team huddle discussion.
Despite the inclusion of numerous seasoned players on the team, Bumrah was elevated. One of them was Virat Kohli. He was the former captain of India, who led the Test team to several victories. An intriguing scene was witnessed when the visitors regrouped to prepare to begin bowling against England after the Indian innings concluded on 416.
Instead of captain Jasprit Bumrah, Kohli was the one motivating colleagues in the Team India huddle.
Virat Kohli conducts Team huddle discussion:
Cricket fans have reacted in a variety of ways to the occurrence.
Rohit Sharma, India’s normal captain, is out due to Covid-19 and the team is currently leading the five-match competition 2-1. KL Rahul, a second opener who made a lot of runs in England alongside Rohit last year, was already out due to a groin injury. India will take down England in their fourth-ever Test series with a victory or draw in the fifth postponed match.
Since their last match, both sides have gone through significant change, with England losing Chris Silverwood as their coach and captain of the Tests to Joe Root.
Rahul Dravid took over for the departing Ravi Shastri as coach in November after Virat Kohli stood down as India captain in February and paceman Jasprit Bumrah led the team for the first time at Edgbaston.
India is helping English cricket plug a financial vacuum believed to be worth £40 million ($48 million) by participating in the match, although about a year later than planned.
The Indian team’s 2022 lineup for the fifth test against England:
