India vs New Zealand Test Series: The Indian cricket team is currently playing a 3-Test series with the New Zealand cricket team, the last match of which will be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from November 1. Team India has already lost this series by 2-0 and if it loses the third match also, it will lose the series by 3-0.
However, it remains to be seen how Team India will perform in the third test. But according to the news before that, current head coach Gautam Gambhir has decided India’s playing 11 for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, in which the biggest villain of the New Zealand Test series defeat is also being given a chance.
Gautam Gambhir started planning
In fact, due to losing 2-0 in the New Zealand Test series, it has become very difficult for Team India to qualify for the World Test Championship 2025. If the Indian team wins 4-1 or 4-0 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, then it can make its way to the finals and hence head coach Gautam Gambhir as well as captain Rohit Sharma have started preparations.
If reports are to be believed, as part of these preparations, India’s playing 11 for the Australia Test series has been fixed, in which Virat Kohli, the biggest villain of the New Zealand Test series defeat, is also being given a chance.
Virat Kohli is also getting a chance
Let us tell you that Virat Kohli is a very big player. But he has been a flop in the first two matches of the New Zealand Test series, due to which fans were demanding his ouster. But according to the information received in media reports, nothing like this is going to happen. Rather, he will be a part of the playing 11 as usual. However, nothing can be said until the playing 11 is officially announced.
India’s playing 11 could be something like this
Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Mohammed Siraj, Nitish Kumar Reddy, R Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah and Washington Sundar.
