According to a report by MyKhel, Gautam Gambhir has backed Virat Kohli to become the next captain of India in Test format in place of Rohit Sharma. This is because India have done well under the aggressive captaincy of Virat Kohli previously especially in overseas conditions.

India emerged victorious over England in the first ODI by securing a 4-wicket win at Nagpur. Following the match's conclusion, cameras captured a compelling exchange between Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir.

While reports of a rift between Rohit and Gambhir gained traction following India’s struggles in Australia, their recent interactions suggest otherwise.
