Kohli’s contribution has been immense, says Bumrah
The forthcoming ODI series in South Africa is going to witness plenty of firsts for India. Not only will it be K.L. Rahul’s maiden captaincy assignment in India’s blues, it will also be the first time since 2014 that Virat Kohli will be a part of an India team without leading it. Besides, the three-match series will also be Jasprit Bumrah’s maiden assignment of formally being a member of the team leadership group.
With Kohli having stepped down as Test captain as well barely a few hours earlier, Bumrah. the ace pacer who has been appointed ODI vice-captain, insisted that he doesn’t chase leadership roles.
“For me, I am ready to contribute in whatever position whatever way I can to the team. If given an opportunity, of course, you would think about it [captaincy] but that’s something that I don’t chase. I like to do my work however I can contribute. Having a post or not doesn’t really matter,” Bumrah said ahead of Wednesday’s series-opener.
