Given these attributes, it's natural to consider whether Bumrah could lead India on a regular basis. It is something he has done in the past. However, there are several reasons why Bumrah may not become a regular captain. Workload management is one of them. As a fast bowler, Bumrah already has a significant physical workload. Adding the responsibilities of captaincy could impact his performance and longevity in the game. Fast bowlers are more prone to injuries due to the physical strain of their role. Captaining the side could increase stress and the likelihood of injuries. Who knows? Captaining a cricket team requires a constant focus on field placements, bowler rotations, and game strategies. This can distract a bowler from focusing solely on their primary job, which is taking wickets. India currently has several experienced leaders, including Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who have already proven their captaincy skills. Additionally, emerging leaders like Rishabh Pant provide further options. Historically, India has preferred batters as captains, allowing bowlers to concentrate on their primary roles without the added burden of leadership. Despite these challenges, Bumrah's cricketing acumen and respect within the team suggest he could play a significant leadership role, especially in mentoring young bowlers and providing strategic inputs. While Bumrah might not lead on a regular basis, his influence and contributions to the team remain invaluable. So much so that he may also help, along with his other colleagues, India to a historic T20 World Cup win in the West Indies. Who knows?
