The New Zealand team is visiting India for a three-match test series. The series is starting from 16th October and the last match will be played on 1st November. This series is very important for both the teams in terms of WTC final. If India wins this series 3-0, then it will not need to work hard against Australia. At present, Team India has not been announced for this series but we can give you an estimate as to which 16 players can be selected in this series.

4 wicketkeepers may get a chance

Not one or two but 4 wicketkeepers can be selected in the three-match Test series against New Zealand. The reason behind this could be the Australia series. India would like to keep each of its players ready for this series. In such a situation, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Dhruv Jurel and Ishan Kishan can be selected as wicketkeepers in India's 16-member squad.

Recently, KL Rahul scored 106 runs in the Bangladesh Test series, while Rishabh Pant scored 161 runs with the help of a century. At the same time, Dhruv Jurel will be there as a backup keeper while Ishan Kishan may return. Buchi Babu can get a reward for scoring a century in the tournament.

5 strong spinners can be included

Five strong spinners can be given a chance in the three-match Test series against New Zealand. If any 5 spinners can be given a chance in Team India's squad, then Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar can be selected. With the help of 1 century, Ashwin has scored 114 runs and Jadeja has scored 94 runs against Bangladesh. Apart from these two, Akshar-Sundar are also all-rounders but both of them also bowl good spin. Whereas, Kuldeep Yadav can be a proper spinner.

These players can also be included

Talking about other players for the New Zealand Test series, Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, Akash Deep and Jasprit Bumrah can be selected in the squad.
