Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the Indian cricket team should not have multiple captains for different formats. According to recent speculations, India may adopt a divided leadership permanently.
However, Aakash Chopra highlighted that continuity is important in cricket, as opposed to football, where it is not as significant.
“A captain has a massive role. There are many team sports where the captain’s role is limited. Football, for example, very limited role. It’s the manager who manages the game from outside. Cricket is not like that. Cricket is a very intuitive game. You cannot spoon-feed a captain there. In such a scenario, you want a little continuity,” stated Chopra in a video on his YouTube channel.
The cricketer-turned-commentator also suggested that even two skippers could be practical, but advised three would be excessive.
