The Boxing Day Test: India head coach Gautam Gambhir on Monday said that if Rohit Sharma will be missing the opening Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Perth then vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah will be leading the side.

With Rohit not sure of his availability for the first Test against Australia due to personal reasons, Bumrah was among the likely contenders to lead India in the marquee series opener.
