Ajit Agarkar can give chance to these players

Team India's chief selector Ajit Agarkar can give a chance to 16 players for the Test series against the Kiwi team. The first name in this will be that of captain Rohit Sharma and he will be seen leading the team.

Apart from this, keeping in mind the World Test Championship 2023-25, India would like to field its strong squad and for this reason veteran batsman Virat Kohli and fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah can also be given a chance in this team.

India is playing this series at home and that is why 4 spinners can be given a chance in the team. At the same time, 4 pacers can also be included in the squad. Agarkar can give a chance to most of the players from the team playing against Bangladesh.
