Pune Test: The first match of the 3 test match series played between India and New Zealand (IND vs NZ) is being played on the grounds of Bengaluru. Bengaluru Test has reached a very exciting turn. Because, after falling behind by 356 runs in the first innings, Team India has made a brilliant comeback and has scored 344 runs at the loss of 3 wickets in the second innings and is now only 12 runs behind.
Whereas, let us tell you that the second test match of the series is to be played on the ground of Pune. It is believed that we may see two changes in the playing 11 of Team India in the Pune Test. Because, Shubman Gill and Akash Dudeep did not get a place in the first test match. Due to which now both these players can return.
In the 2-Test series against Bangladesh, the performance of Team India's two young players Shubhman Gill and Akash Deep was excellent. But due to injury in the first test match, Shubman Gill did not get a chance to play.
But Shubman Gill's return in the second Test match starting from October 24 is considered certain. Whereas fast bowler Akash Deep can also be seen playing in the Pune Test match. Akash Deep had bowled brilliantly in the series against Bangladesh and Gill had also scored a century.
Let us tell you that the young batsman Sarfaraz Khan, who scored a brilliant century in the first Test match, can be dropped from the second Test match. Because, Sarfaraz Khan is playing in place of Shubman Gill in the first test match.
Due to which, due to Gill's return, Sarfaraz Khan may be shown the way out of the playing 11. Whereas apart from this, spinner bowler Kuldeep Yadav may not get a place in the second test match. Because, fast bowlers can get more help in the Pune Test match. Due to which Kuldeep can be thrown out and Akash Deep can be given a chance.
Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Akash Deep, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.
