Basit made the comments days after Bumrah picked himself as the 'best captain.' "There are great captains, but I'll take my name - I am my favourite captain," Bumrah had said while speaking at the Express Adda. Reacting to Bumrah's comments, Ali, while speaking on his YouTube channel, said: "About Jasprit Bumrah's statement, it's just like how Babar Azam likes captaincy. In my opinion, he should not chase captaincy. He is a top-class bowler and should be focusing just on that." Bumrah had also called for bowlers to be looked at as captaincy options citing examples of Kapil Dev, Imran Khan and Pat Cummins. "He gave the examples of Kapil Dev and Imran Khan's captaincy. However, they had become all-rounders, which is why they succeeded as captains. They were not appointed captains when they came into their teams as bowlers. This is the difference between a bowler and an all-rounder," Ali said. "He also spoke about Pat Cummins. Yes, Cummins is a good captain, but there are very few fast bowlers who can become a good coach or captain. My best wishes to Jasprit Bumrah. There is a chance that he could be made the captain after the Champions Trophy," Ali added. Bumrah has played under MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for India and said that all three have their own style of captaincy. Explaining the difference between the captaincy styles of these Indian skippers, Bumrah said, "Rohit (Sharma) is one of the few captains who has empathy towards bowlers, despite being a batsman. "MS (Dhoni) gave me a lot of security, quickly. He has a lot of faith in his instinct and doesn't believe in a lot of planning. Virat (Kohli) is energy-driven and passionate and wears his heart on his sleeve."
