3 players who can captain India against Afghanistan

#1 Ajinkya Rahane

India's vice-captain in the Test format, Ajinkya Rahane is the favourite to lead the Indian team against Afghanistan.

He has led the team once against Australia in Dharamsala where India sealed the deal with ease, and Rahane was quite impressive with his captaincy. He used the bowlers perfectly and then threw in his spinners at just the right time.

Also, he drew a lot of praise for his field adjustments and kept attacking fields right throughout the match which never allowed the match to drift away.

Barring any last minute injury woes, Rahane is sure to lead the Indian team against Afghanistan!
