India Faces Key Decisions for Third Test Against Australia at Gabba
With the series tied 1-1, India must address batting struggles, Rohit Sharma's role, and team selection to boost their World Test Championship hopes.
- Former selectors and coaches emphasize the need for Rohit Sharma to return to his preferred opening role after struggling at No. 6 in the Adelaide Test.
- India's batting lineup has been underperforming, with first-innings scores rarely surpassing 200 in recent matches, highlighting the need for improvement at the Gabba.
- Debates continue over the inclusion of Ravindra Jadeja as an all-rounder to strengthen the batting lineup, potentially replacing Ravichandran Ashwin in the playing XI.
- Young pacer Harshit Rana is expected to retain his spot despite a tough outing in Adelaide, while Akash Deep has impressed in the nets and remains an option.
- Concerns about Jasprit Bumrah's workload and Mohammed Shami's fitness linger, but Bumrah appears ready to lead the attack alongside Mohammed Siraj.
