that how many pure bowlers have become captains in the history of cricket
14

& now when Bumrah's captaincy has also started a whole lot of controversy
we need to revist this idea that fast bowlers or even bowlers for that matter can't become captains

so as we look into the statistical angle of the trends behind this decision and the historical significance behind this

the difference the captaincy of pat Cummins - the Australian captain has made
ANd the various reasons why bowlers have been kept away from captaincy

from feild setting issues to selfsh nature to even the fact that batsman are more in the team

we seem to have completely side steeped the actual qualiteis that yo require in a captain
leaadership
cricketing IQ

but all that has been pshed aside

tp the pont
that Umrah - who is the eiptome of a hard working - ever evolving stalwart of India
who spearheading the indian pace attck has consistently brought applauds for india
through sheer grit and perseverance

From comparisions to virat kohli to angles of coach Rahul dravid
from the litany of ndian captains in the past
from venkatraghvan to kumble
we try to understand
why exactly does BUmrah's captaincy matters.
