Delhi: Now only two days are left for the start of the Border Gavaskar Trophy, and the first Test is about to begin in Perth. In this match, everyone’s eyes are fixed on the playing-11 of the Indian team.

Meanwhile, former Indian player and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar has announced his probable playing eleven. Manjrekar believes that in the absence of Rohit, Abhimanyu Easwaran should be given a chance to open along with Yashasvi Jaiswal.
At the same time, they have included Dhruv Jurel, who performed brilliantly in the unofficial test between India-A and Australia-A, as a batsman at number three, while the responsibility of wicket-keeping will be on the shoulders of Rishabh Pant, whose performance in Australia is always good. Has been impressive.
Virat Kohli will strengthen the Indian batting at number four, while Sanjay has also given a chance to KL Rahul, who showed good form in the intra-team practice match.
Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar have been selected among all-rounders, who recently performed brilliantly against New Zealand. Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj and Akash Deep have been included in the fast bowling attack. Manjrekar also said that Bumrah will captain the team. He has not given place to Ravichandran Ashwin in his team.
Sanjay Manjrekar’s suggested playing 11:
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Dhruv Jurel, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep.
