The ongoing five-Test series between India and England has reached an exciting turn with a 1-1 draw. The third match of the series will be played in Rajkot from 15th February. To win this match and take the lead, both teams would like to play with their best playing eleven. At the same time, news is coming from the Indian camp that KL Rahul will not play in this test. In such a situation, the test debut of Sarfaraz Khan, who made a splash in the domestic season, is certain. Apart from him, another player can debut for India. After these changes, let us know what will be India's playing eleven?
Actually, after the second test, Shreyas Iyer has not been selected for the last three matches due to injury. KL Rahul has been included in the squad, but he will not play the third test due to injury. In such a situation, Sarfaraz Khan will get a chance to debut for India. Indian Express has confirmed Sarfaraz's debut quoting a source.
Sarfaraz Khan has been performing amazingly in domestic cricket for the last few years. He has scored runs at an average of more than 100 in three consecutive domestic seasons. He also played a brilliant inning of 161 runs in the match against the England Lions. Now he is certain to get a Test cap as two middle-order batsmen are out due to injury.
Along with Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel can also debut in the Rajkot Test. Because in the two matches played so far, KS Bharat has not been able to do anything special with the bat. In such a situation, in this test to be played from 15th February, it is considered certain that Dhruv Jurel will get the chance as wicketkeeper-batsman and not KS Bharat. He was also a part of the team in the first two Tests but was not included in the playing eleven.
India's probable playing 11: Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj/Mukesh Kumar.
