After losing the three-match Test series at home, Team india will now play a five-match Test series in Australia. Even before the start of this series, Team india is facing a big question, which no one has an answer to. Actually, there are reports that captain rohit sharma is not a part of Team india in the first two Tests against Australia. In such a situation, everyone wants to know who will open the innings in place of Rohit?
rohit sharma may miss the first two Tests against australia due to personal reasons. In such a situation, wicketkeeper dhruv Jurel and KL rahul were sent to australia immediately after the end of the new zealand series. It was being told that this is the 'master plan' of coach gautam gambhir and the team management.
Let us tell you that India's A team is playing an unofficial Test against Australia's A team in Australia. When KL rahul came out to open the innings in the second unofficial Test, everyone understood why rahul was sent to australia and why he came out to open. Actually, rahul was being prepared to open in place of Rohit. However, rahul flopped in both the innings. He scored four runs in the first innings and returned to the pavilion after scoring 10 runs in the second innings. Now when this master plan has proved to be a dud, questions are being raised again. Everyone wants to know who will be yashasvi Jaiswal's opening partner in the first Test against australia starting on november 22. The most disturbing thing is that along with rahul, the other opener abhimanyu Easwaran also flopped. He too could not do anything special. Both of them are part of Team india for the Test series against Australia.
Now a 'serious' decision will have to be taken
abhimanyu Easwaran, who performed brilliantly in domestic cricket, was included in the team as a reserve opener, but when KL rahul, who plays in the middle order, was sent to open again, it became clear what the team management was thinking. In such a situation, after both Ishwaran and rahul flopped, all the responsible people of Team india will have to take a serious decision. Wicketkeeper dhruv Jurel, who went with rahul for india A, has performed brilliantly. Jurel scored 80 runs in the first innings and 68 runs in the second innings. Now the question is whether he will get a place in the playing eleven against Australia.
