Part 2/6:
A notable change for India will be the return of captain Rohit Sharma, who missed the first test due to the birth of his second child. While Sharma has been a mainstay at the top of the order for India for the last five years, he will not open the batting this time around. Instead, the performance from K. L. Rahul in the previous test has earned him the spot at the top, forcing Rohit to adjust his batting position. Sharma expressed pride in watching Rahul’s stellar performance and acknowledged that there’s no need to disrupt a successful batting lineup based on recent performance.
