Fitness can be issue with bumrah in test. He can't be the long term solution. Same with Kl, Shreyas. Jaddu is a great athlete isn't captain material. Gill, Jaiswal lack experience.
Pant seems like most viable candidate.

After bumrah, pant is strong contender for Indian test captaincy.

Bhai woh aise hi khelta hain,
Jab travis head khelta hai tum log bolte ho ki hamari team me travis head jaisa koi nhi khelta.
Jab indian team koi aggressive khelta hai toh usse bhi dikkat?
Agar aise hi replace karoge toh team me sab replace honge.
Pant ke 3-4 chaar yeh BGT 2024-25 pe judge kerne lg jaate hai log.

Ipl isn't the problem. Ipl is the best thing that happened to Indian cricket.

Problem is making players bigger than the game. Its natural for players to want to play all formats, but here some players don't want any one else to get the opportunity to play. They are afraid that they might lose position if a new player plays couple of good games. Virat kept on with Pujara & rahane for long, not because he believed in them, but because he knew if they are forced out he'll be next. At that time the 4 best performing batsmen were 4 alrounders ( Pant+jaddu+ash+axar), yet only 2 (abroad) or 3(india) were playing at the same time. Players of jaddu/ash/axar caliber would've played twice as much if they were in any other team.

Look what they have been doing with Kl since beginning, what they were doing with no4 position during 2017-2019. Seemed like they were more interested in playing musical chair than cricket. In their eyes some are important, rest are replaceable.

Anderson/Stuart could play so many tests and kept their form so long, only because they chose one format. Its time same is forced on Indian players.

It's not reasonable for a country of 1.4bn people and so many talented players to play so few matches. India can field 2 teams in 2 different parts of the world on the same day and win both. may be Its not there yet in test, but definitely is in t20 and odi. But india plays less t20i than most smaller teams.

Then the politics/mh+GJ lobby. Funnily enough mh lobby doesn't lobby for local captain (Rituraj Gaikwad ) at least for no3 position.

Lobby is a big issue. But I also think we don't have any cricketer who can bat whole day in Test. This may be due to IPL.

We cant make devil out of Commercial success of one format. If it were a valid argument, all other sports also could blame ipl/cricket.

Its mgmts fault that they are not able find/nurture/protect right talents. They sidelined players like Jaffer, Vijay, shikhar, dk, gambhir without valid reason. look at how they manage work load , especially for fast bowler. Look at repeated injury/failed rehabilitation: shami, bumrah, Bhuvi, kl, shreyas, deepak chahar and many more. Neither bumrah body nor his bowling action
can sustain 20overs a day. But people want him to be full time captain.

Plus There are so many players who played test as t20 still had good performance: Kapil Dev, viv Richard's, sehwag and many more. We should let people play their natural game. (Just that someone has to teach impulse control during key moments of the game to pant 🤣).

Our ICC chief will make new rules for Indian team within 3 yrs. Our players will only play IPL and T20. It will bring huge money to BCCI. Playing Test will bring only shame to us in future for sure. IPL is the main problem.

I beg to differ. BCCI, apparently is putting lots of input into Test crickets. I would not be surprised to see domestic cricket being made more strict for some international stars, except for apparent Goats
