5 potential captains for India's second string squad at the ICC Champions Trophy 2017

#2 Harbhajan Singh

Ad

India’s most successful off-spinner till date, Harbhajan Singh was not awarded a contract by the BCCI this year. He last played for India in the 2016 Asia Cup against the United Arab Emirates.

He has an immense amount of experience under his belt and has quite a bit of captaincy experience as well by captaining the Mumbai Indians side in the IPL.

If India does not send their first string side to the tournament, Harbhajan could most likely take up the role of the no. 1 spinner of the side and captain the side as well.

He has picked up 269 wickets in 236 ODIs at an average of 33.35 and an economy rate of 4.31.
