KL Rahul will not open now? Will Gill's position in the team also be lost? Of course, you can believe these things or not, but the news floating around is indicating that this is going to happen. According to reports, in the Boxing Day Test to be played in Melbourne, KL Rahul may not be seen opening the innings like the last 3 Tests of the series. This is because there are reports of Rohit Sharma opening with Yashasvi Jaiswal at MCG. Whereas about KL Rahul it is being said that he can bat at number three.

KL Rahul will play on Gill's number!

Till now Shubman Gill was seen playing at number 3 during the Australia tour. But, the news of Rahul playing at number three in Melbourne means that Gill will lose his position. Shubman Gill may then be seen batting at number 4. Well, this is not going to make as much difference as the effect of removing KL Rahul from the opening.
