2nd Test India vs England, Indian team is trailing 1-0 after losing first test to England by 28 runs at Hyderabad. On the one hand, Rahul and Jadeja have been left out of the second test match due to injuries. On the other hand, there is batting failure in the first test match.
During the South Africa Test series, neither Shreyas Iyer nor Shubman Gill was able to get the runs they were supposed to from the bat; they were both unsuccessful.
The same repeat was seen between the two during the Test match between India and England .
Indian batsmen could not collect the score of 230 runs. This demonstrates the extent to which the Indian batsmen are disorganized. Although Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is batting in a T20 mindset, the team is not benefiting from his higher run rate.
Virat Kohli had earlier announced that he would not play the two test matches and was replaced by RCB teammate Rajat Patidar. But Rajat was not included in the 11 squad for the first Test match.
KL Rahul and Jadeja were injured during the first Test match.
Despite the good performances of experienced Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in the Ranji Trophy, the selectors have trusted these three young players.
Sarfraz Khan ,Wasinghton Sundar and Saurabh Kumar got a chance to replace them Rahul and Jadeja.
Is Sarfaraz Khan and Rajat patidar able to take Gill or Shreyas’ spot in the second Test?
With scores of 111, 151 and 4 in his three games against the England Lions, Rajat Patidar has shown he can play with consistency. Now the thing to be seen is whether Patidar can replace Gill in the second test. Shubman Gill scored 36, 10, 1, 26, 23 and 00 runs respectively in the last three test matches.
Sarfaraz got a chance to replace Kl Rahul. Sarfaraz, who batted in the middle order, played in two U-19 World Cups and amassed 566 runs at an incredible average of 70.75.
Similarly, Safaraz showed his prowess with scores of 96, 55, 4 and 161 against England Lions opponents.
It remains to be seen if Sarfaraz can take Shreyas Iyer’s place in the second test.
Shreyas Iyer has scored runs in the last three Test matches in the following order: 00, 04, 31, 6, 35, and 13 runs.
Washington Sundar and Saurabh Kumar have come as replacements for Ravindra Jadeja.
It is not clear which of the two all-rounders will get a place in the Indian XI, but one of the two will get a chance.
In 68 first-class matches, Saurabh Kumar the bowling all-rounder from Uttar Pradesh has claimed 290 wickets. Having four wickets, Saurabh got 15 times. 22 times, he claimed five wickets. Saurabh has eight times taken ten wickets.
Washington Sundar scored 299 runs in 4 Test matches for the Indian team and got six wickets in seven innings. Washington Sundar averaged 49.83 runs scored at the previous 4 test series . Washington Sundar has experience of playing in the Indian team. Lets see what could be India’s possible XI for 2nd test?
India’s possible playing XI For 2nd Test India vs England –
Rohit Sharma (C), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, KS Bharat (WK), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Saurabh Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah (VC)
