Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma
The Indian cricket team is now ready to go on England tour next month. India played their last series against Australia. Since then, a lot has changed in Indian cricket. In particular, three players have announced retirement one by one. Now when the Indian team will again take the ground for the Test, a lot will be changed.
Who will be Team India’s new opener
Ravichandran Ashwin had retired from the Test during the Australia series and suddenly left the series and came back home. But then no one thought that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli would retire from the test at an interval of only 5 days. Till now only the opener was being searched, but now the number four will have to be discovered. The Indian team will have to prepare afresh. By the way, if we talk about the opener instead of Rohit, then KL Rahul’s name is leading here. Although KL Rahul can also play in the below order, but whenever needed, he has also started the innings and has been very successful. But due to Rohit Sharma’s presence, he was not getting a chance on the top order continuously. Meanwhile, Sai Sudarshan is also being named as another opener.
Sai Sudarshan and Yashasvi Jaiswal pair can be a hit
Sai Sudarshan has just done amazing battle in the IPL and has won the match to his team. With the arrival of Sai Sudarshan, it will be that Rahul will continue to bat in the below order as before. India will get two young batsmen as Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sai Sudarshan. Both of these are still new and young, if these pair are successful then they can play for a long time. However, it has to be seen who the BCCI gives a chance and who is the new opener of the Indian team in the coming time.
Shreyas Iyer and Sarfaraz biggest contenders
Meanwhile, if you talk about the vacant number four due to the departure of Virat Kohli, then there are many contenders here too. Shreyas Iyer is a strong contender for this. They have been running out of Test Team India for a long time. By going from Virat Kohli, he can be given a chance at number four. Meanwhile, Sarfaraz Khan can also present his claim for number four. But it is certain that when the BCCI selection committee sits to select Team India for the England series, then there will be all the questions in front of them, whose answers are not going to be easy. Also, whoever becomes the new captain, there are so many challenges in front of him that they will not face easy task.
