Delhi: The third match of the 5-match Border-Gavaskar Test series between India and Australia will be played in Brisbane. After the defeat in the Adelaide Test, this series is tied at 1-1. Both teams will now try to take the lead in the series by winning the Gabba Test. Australia has announced its playing XI for its third Test, in which Josh Hazlewood has returned, who has joined the team in place of Scott Boland. Now the eyes of Indian fans are fixed on the playing XI of Team India.
When and where to watch the third test match between India and Australia, time of the match changed
Rohit will open and Rahul will play number 6.
KL Rahul had performed brilliantly in the absence of Rohit Sharma in the Perth Test, after which the Indian captain returned and left his opening position in the Adelaide Test. However, he could not score much runs at number-6 and was able to add only 9 runs in both the innings. Because of this, it is now being speculated that Rohit may return to his regular opening position again in the Gabba Test. At the same time, KL Rahul may get a chance to bat in the middle order.
KL Rahul batting in the middle order can be beneficial for the team. By spending a long time at the crease, he can put pressure on the Australian bowlers and prevent the tail from getting out early.
Jadeja will get a chance!
Apart from this, India can give a chance to Ravindra Jadeja to strengthen its batting. Washington Sundar got a chance in the first test and R Ashwin got a chance in the second, but both could not make much impact. While bowling continuously from one end, Jadeja will also give the captain the option to rotate the other bowlers.
Akashdeep may get a chance
There may be some changes in the bowling unit also. Harshit Rana’s performance in the Adelaide Test was not good, so Rohit Sharma can give a chance to Akashdeep, so that the team’s pace battery can become stronger.
