KL Rahul: After Team India's crushing defeat in the first Test against New Zealand, the team management has now started introspecting. The team management would like to soon make changes in the team and get back on the winning track.

New Zealand has defeated Team India in a Test match in India after 36 years. After losing the test match, there was a demand to drop Rahul from the team but Team India is going to drop this player in place of Rahul (KL Rahul).

Mohammed Siraj may be out

After losing the first test to New Zealand, not KL Rahul but this Indian player's career ended, it is certain to be out of Pune test.

Let us tell you that the player whom Team India is thinking of dropping could be Mohammad Siraj. Siraj has been struggling with poor form for some time now and he bowled very ordinary in the first Test match too, after which the team management may decide to drop him.

Siraj's poor form is also a matter of concern because Team India has to play the Border Gavaskar series later this year in which it is very important for Siraj to return to form. In this Border Gavaskar, Team India is once again struggling with injuries to fast bowlers, due to which it is important for Siraj to get back in form.

Akashdeep may get a chance

The team management can leave out Siraj and give a chance to Akashdeep. Akashdeep has performed very well in whatever opportunities he has got but due to playing two fast bowlers, Akashdeep was dropped. But Siraj's form and Team India's defeat may perhaps open the door for Akashdeep.

Siraj's bad form continues

If we talk about Siraj's performance this year, he has taken only 19 wickets in 16 innings of 8 Test matches. In which he took 6 wickets in one innings. Not only this, Siraj's performance at home this year is even worse and he has taken only 8 wickets in 10 innings at home at an average of 45.50.
