Who is that player who is publicly challenging Rohit Sharma? Captaincy battle broke out even before retirement

New Delhi. The way the India and Australia series is progressing, questions have been raised on Rohit Sharma’s future. Now everyone has started advising captain Rohit Sharma, who won the World Cup six months ago, to retire. There are even reports that there is an internal war going on among the captaincy contenders in the team. A senior player is also involved in this battle, who seems to be very active during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.

Tension between Gambhir and players
Quoting media reports, it has been claimed that everything is not going well in Team India. According to PTI, tension has arisen between some players of the team and coach Gautam Gambhir. These players are not happy about being dropped from the playing eleven. It is not that earlier players were not dropped. But during the tenure of Rahul Dravid and Ravi Shastri, such misunderstanding or lack of communication was not seen.

Players started staking claims for captaincy
On the other hand, it has been claimed in the report of Indian Express that a race has also broken out for the captaincy of the team. The interesting thing is that Rohit Sharma has neither retired nor given any such indication, but the contenders have started staking their claims. The English newspaper, without writing the name of Virat Kohli, has also mentioned him/her as being involved in this race. For Kohli, the report says that a senior player is very active on the field these days. he/she wants to become the interim captain saying that the youth of the team are not yet ready for this responsibility.

Let us tell you that India has lost 5 out of the last 7 test matches. Team India was first defeated by New Zealand 3-0 at home. After this, the team has lost 2 out of 4 test matches on the Australia tour. Now there is a danger of snatching the Border Gavaskar Trophy from the hands of Team India.
