What decision did the Indian cricket team take? (PC-PTI)
The Indian cricket team lost the first test in Eden Garden, Kolkata and now this team has taken a decision which is really shocking. The big thing is that due to this decision India can lose in Guwahati Test also. Actually, there are reports that the Indian team will remain in Kolkata for the time being and the team will practice at Eden Gardens on Tuesday. The practice of the Indian team after the defeat at Eden Gardens means that a similar pitch can be made in Guwahati.
If such a pitch is made in Guwahati…
The second and last test match between India and South Africa will start from November 22 in Guwahati. What kind of pitch will be made on this ground has become a big question because the Indian batsmen failed on the spin friendly wicket of Kolkata. The surprising thing is that despite all this, Team India can only make a spin friendly pitch in Guwahati. The Indian team is staying in Kolkata for practice and this indicates the same.
Indian batsman failed on spin friendly wicket
If spin friendly wicket is made in Guwahati then Indian batsmen may face problems again. Team India lost 0-3 in the test series against New Zealand. They won against West Indies but they did not have quality spinners. Now the spinners of the South African team are troubling the Indian batsmen.
Question on Shubman Gill?
It is a matter of concern that Indian team captain Shubman Gill may not be able to play in the second test also. He suffered a neck injury during the first test due to which he remained in the ICU. Now it is difficult for him to play in the second test. In his place, either Sai Sudarshan and Devdutt Padikkal may get a chance in the team.
