The third match of the 5 test match series being played between India and Australia is now near. This match will be played on the historic ground of Gaba from 14th December. For this, the teams have finalized their preparations. Australia has even announced its playing eleven a day before the match. However, the playing eleven of Team India has not been revealed yet. It is believed that when the match starts on Saturday, only then Rohit Sharma will reveal his playing eleven at the time of toss. Meanwhile, some changes are being expected in the playing eleven of the next match. Let us try to understand what changes can happen in the playing eleven of the team.
Possibility of change in bowling of Team India
Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India is reaching here after losing the last match. Therefore the team will be under some pressure. But the Indian team has won the first match of the series, so there will not be much tension in the camp. India still has a chance to win the series. As far as the playing eleven is concerned, there is very little possibility that some changes will be made in India’s batting. Yes, it is true that the numbering can definitely change. There seems to be a possibility of some changes in the bowling.
Harshit Rana can be shown the way out
Bowler Harshit Rana, who made his debut recently and could not take a single wicket in the last match, can be shown the way out of the playing eleven of the next match. In the first innings of the match, he neither got wickets nor spent a lot of runs. In such a situation, it is considered certain that he will be out of the playing eleven. Now the question is who will come in his place. However, two fast bowlers can take his place. Mukesh Kumar and Prasidh Krishna are ready for this. Prasidh Krishna has good height and the ball bounces well in Gabba, Prasidh can get the advantage of this. Mukesh Kumar has bowled a lot in the practice session of Team India, due to which it is expected that he can also make his place in the playing eleven. However, this whole matter will be confirmed only on the toss in the morning of the match.
Suspense again regarding Rohit Sharma
Meanwhile, there is suspense about whether Rohit Sharma will once again play in the middle order, or whether he will come to open. Even though the pair of Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul was a hit in the first test of the series, the pair could not do anything amazing in the second match. In such a situation, there are definitely questions regarding what decision Rohit Sharma takes regarding his batting order. It can be difficult to break the opening pair after failure in the same match. But there is also tension that Rohit Sharma is not able to score runs in the middle order. In the last match, he was seen struggling for every run. There are many questions, but their answers will be known before the match on 14th December.
