According to the reports published in The Indian Express, a senior player, who called himself as ‘Mr Fix-It’ wanted to take over Indian captaincy and was convinced that young players are not ready to take over leadership roles.

"With Rohit missing the 1st Test at Perth, there were some players, all eyeing the captain’s spot, who were claiming openly that they would have to do something special on the tour. The aforementioned senior member who harbours a desire to be the interim captain, is actively portraying himself as ‘Mr Fix-It’ and it has been learnt that he isn’t convinced that the young guns are ready to take over leadership roles," the Indian Express report read.
