IND vs AUS Playing 11: The fourth Test between India and Australia will be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. At present the 5 test match series is tied at 1-1. Both the teams will enter with the intention of taking the lead in the series by winning the Boxing Day Test. At the same time, the Indian team can make major changes in its playing eleven. Actually, Team India can enter the Boxing Day Test with 2 spinners in the form of Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja. Also, it is believed that fast bowler Mohammad Siraj may be dropped from the playing 11.
Will Indian team field with 2 spinners?
Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, the performance of other Indian fast bowlers has been disappointing in this series. Therefore, Rohit Sharma can enter the Boxing Day Test with major changes. Young spinner Washington Sundar may get a chance in the playing 11 in place of Mohammad Siraj. Both players have played 1-1 Tests in this series before. Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja have added important runs as batsmen in the lower order. Apart from this, both the spinners can become a problem for the Australian batsmen. However, it will be interesting to see with which playing 11 the Indian team takes the field?
Team India can field with these players
At the same time, once again KL Rahul can be seen as an opener with Yashasvi Jaiswal. In this way Rohit Sharma will bat in the middle order. After Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul, there will be batsmen like Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant and Rohit Sharma in the middle order. Whereas Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar can look good as all-rounders in the playing 11. Apart from this, if Mohammad Siraj is out of the playing 11, then only Jasprit Bumrah will be seen as a fast bowler. However, all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy can bowl fast along with Jasprit Bumrah.
Probable playing eleven of Indian team-
Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma (captain), Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar and Jasprit Bumrah.
