Rohit Sharma capable of handling vice-captain's role in Indian Test team: Ian Chappell

Ian Chappell heaped praise on Virat Kohli's Indian Test side and also backed Rohit Sharma to take up the vice-captain's role from Ajinkya Rahane, who didn't find a place in Australian's suggested XI.

Former Australia captain Ian Chappell hailed the Indian Test side for their all-round capabilities and "substantial depth" after they put up yet another outstanding show on an overseas tour under Virat Kohli. The England-India Test series saw the visitors outplay the hosts at Lord's and The Oval to take an unbeatable 2-1 lead before the fifth and final match was called off in Manchester due to the Covid-19 outbreak in the visiting camp.
