Rohit Sharma was dropped and Virat Kohli suddenly became the captain, know why such big decision was taken during the Sydney Test

A big change was suddenly seen in the fifth Test being played between India and Australia in Sydney. First regular captain Rohit Sharma was dropped and then suddenly Virat Kohli became the captain.

The fifth and last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-24 is being played in Sydney. The Sydney Test has so far been very up and down for Team India. The biggest change in the match was seen in the form of Captain Rohit Sharma. Rohit was dropped from the Sydney Test and during the match, Kohli was made the captain. Here Rohit was dropped and there Virat got the captaincy.

Rohit Sharma Jasprit Bumrah

Let us tell you that in place of Rohit Sharma, Vice-Captain Jasprit Bumrah was given the command of India in the Sydney Test. On the second day of the match, Jasprit Bumrah suddenly walked out of the field. After Bumrah went out, Virat Kohli is present on the field as captain. In this way, after Rohit Sharma was dropped, Kohli was made the captain of Team India.

Why did Bumrah go out of the field?

Team India’s troubles seem to be increasing during the fifth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 being played in Sydney. Jasprit Bumrah, who is captaining the team in the match, suddenly went out of the field and then after about half an hour he came out with the medical team. In such a situation, speculations have started that he has gone out with the medical team for some kind of scan. Bumrah was seen going in the car with the medical team.

Ravi Shastri, who is doing English commentary, also speculated that perhaps Bumrah has been taken for a scan. By the second day of the Sydney Test, Bumrah has bowled 10 overs, in which he took 2 wickets. However, now Bumrah will not be seen bowling on the second day. Bumrah’s going out like this is a matter of concern for Team India.

However, official information is yet to come about Bumrah as to why he suddenly went out of the field. At the same time, Bumrah did not look uncomfortable at all during bowling. He kept bowling at his speed continuously. After lunch, Bumrah returned to the field and went out of the field after bowling the second over of the session.
