BCCI chairman of selectors Chetan Sharma has said there was no other name in the running for India’s next Test captain barring Rohit Sharma who he called as the country’s number one cricketer. Rohit on Saturday was named as the Test captain for the upcoming home series against Sri Lanka and now leads the team across formats.
“Rohit Sharma is number one cricketer of our country and the most important thing is that he is playing all the three formats,” Chetan said on Saturday after announcing the squad for the two-match Test series.
