Bro as per repoorts bcci wanted vk as captain but he didn't want on this stage of his career and that is one of the reason behind him thinking about retirement

Doodh mai makkhi ki tarah bumrah se captainship le liya


Feel sad for bumrah the guy done all in bgt in absence of Rohit sharma but scrapped from test captainship now. No Matter if he was available for 3 match atleast for 3 games he could lead india then bumrah absence gill could lead indian team but again bcci chose glamour over talent

As you mentioned, Bumrah would play may be 3 or 4 tests, that too not sure consecutive, 3 could be alternate as well, so switching captaincy every match doesn't look good, Bumrah definitely should be first choice captain provided he's fit to play the full series.
Gill will have that double edged sword now, he'll either flourish or vanish.

Exactly switching captain again and again that too in an away series is too costly as we see already earlier this year in australia we can't afford that kind of situation again

Not practical to change captaincy every other match. Captain should be available all the time every series. Injury prone players van never be full time captain
