Former BCCI secretary Sanjay Jagdale believes that KL Rahul should be handed over the Indian Test cricket team’s captaincy as the 29-year-old batter can provide long-term leadership after Virat Kohli’s stunning decision to step down.


Kohli on Saturday dropped a bombshell by quitting Test captaincy, a day after India suffered a Test series defeat to South Africa. He signed off as India’s most successful captain with 40 wins in 68 Tests after taking over back in 2014 when MS Dhoni stepped down in the middle of the series against Australia. 


“The next India Test captain should be the one who can take the responsibility for a longer period of time. So accordingly, I would suggest KL Rahul’s name,” said Jagdale, who was also an office-bearer of Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association.
