Former India batsman Aakash Chopra believes that young wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant could dethrone KL Rahul as Test captain in the near future. Rahul is India’s designated vice-captain in all three formats. However, his captaincy credentials have been called into question. In terms of India’s future captaincy options, Chopra believes Pant may have an advantage over Rahul as Test captain, despite the fact that both players have yet to develop their distinct captaincy styles.

Chopra believes Pant may have an advantage over Rahul as Test captain
“There are three additional captains. I’ll discuss KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Shreyas Iyer, and I can also discuss Sanju Samson. But you haven’t grasped the obvious DNA of their captaincy. Rishabh Pant, for example, can be an aggressive captain at times, but he doesn’t always use his bowlers effectively. He is currently learning. The captaincy DNA isn’t there yet, and KL Rahul is no exception. However, Rishabh Pant may just overtake Rahul in Test cricket. But keep in mind that Rahul is a world-class player across all formats. ” Chopra stated this in a video posted to his YouTube channel.
Chopra also contrasted Pant’s and Rahul’s captaincy styles with those of Shreyas Iyer and Sanju Samson, who lead their respective IPL franchises.
The cricketer-turned-commentator also stated that, of the four players in the IPL, Samson has been the best at managing the bowlers.
“They are captains of their respective teams, but they are all works in progress. I believe Sanju Samson is doing a better job of managing the bowling resources. He also had a strong bowling attack “He continued.
