Cricket / Rishabh Pant should take over the responsibility of Test captaincy in place of Virat says sunil Gavaskar

Cricket | Legendary Sunil Gavaskar wants Rishabh Pant to replace Virat Kohli as India's next Test captain as he believes the sense of responsibility will make the wicketkeeper a better cricketer across all formats of the game.

Kohli surprised the cricketing world on Saturday evening by leaving the Test captaincy of the Indian team. Gavaskar said that he would prefer Pant as he would be the first choice for the selectors in all formats of the game. Gavaskar told India Today, "As far as the selection committee is concerned, there is going to be a lot of debate about who will take Indian cricket forward. Firstly, he should be a player who should be automatically selected for all formats of the game. Once that happens, it will be quite easy. ,

He said, "If you ask me, I will still say that I would like to see Rishabh Pant as the next Indian captain."
