In the upcoming India vs Bangladesh Test series, the BCCI has not officially named a vice-captain for the Indian squad, despite Jasprit Bumrah having previously served as the deputy during the England series. Bumrah, although back in the squad, has not been reinstated as vice-captain, and no clear successor has been announced.

With Rohit Sharma's captaincy nearing its final stages, the BCCI appears to be considering multiple candidates for the role of vice-captain. Although Shubman Gill has been named vice-captain in white-ball formats, the Test format remains undecided, and the selectors have opted for flexibility rather than naming a fixed deputy. On the field, leadership responsibilities will likely be distributed among senior players. Bumrah, as the leader of the pace attack, will assist Rohit with bowling decisions, while Rishabh Pant, as the wicketkeeper, will play a crucial role in DRS reviews.
