Former KKR director Joy Bhattacharjya has criticized the decision to appoint Rohit Sharma as India's captain for the upcoming T20I World Cup, citing concerns over Sharma's form as an opener in the T20 format. Bhattacharjya suggested that Sharma's fellow competitors, such as Virat Kohli, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Shubman Gill, are in better form and should be considered for opening positions. He proposed ace speedster Jasprit Bumrah as a potential captaincy choice for India, emphasizing the importance of the captain being a sure shot member of the team. Bhattacharjya's comments come ahead of a meeting between Ajit Agarkar and Rohit Sharma to finalize India's 15-member squad for the World Cup.
