IND vs ENG / Will Dhruv Jurel-Anshul Kamboj play? This will be the playing eleven of Team India!

The fourth Test between India and England will be played in Manchester from July 23. India is trailing 1-2 and it is important to win this match. Aakash Chopra has suggested that Dhruv Jurel and Anshul Kamboj should get a place in the playing XI, so that the team can be balanced.

IND vs ENG: The fourth match of the five-Test series between India and England is going to start in Manchester from July 23. This match is very important for the Indian team, as they are trailing 1-2 in the series. Defeat in this match will mean the series slipping out of hand. In such a situation, India will need not only strategy but also a balanced playing XI to win. But injuries have disturbed the balance of the team. Nitish Reddy is out due to injury, and it is almost impossible for fast bowler Akash Deep to play in Manchester. In such a situation, the question arises, what will be India's playing XI? Former cricketer Aakash Chopra, while answering this question, has advocated giving a chance to Dhruv Jurel and Anshul Kamboj.

Will Dhruv Jurel get a place?

Aakash Chopra believes that Dhruv Jurel should be included in the playing XI in the Manchester Test. There is no clarity yet about Rishabh Pant's wicketkeeping fitness. Even though Pant was seen practicing wicketkeeping in Manchester, he may be kept free from this responsibility as a precaution. In this situation, Pant can play as a specialist batsman, and Jurel can take over the wicketkeeping responsibility. Jurel is not only a brilliant wicketkeeper, but his batting is also strong. He is capable of filling the void of Nitish Reddy, who was known for his all-round ability.

Anshul Kamboz's debut?


Aakash Deep, who was part of the Indian bowling attack in the last two Tests, is almost out of the Manchester Test due to injury. He was also facing difficulty climbing stairs on Monday. Anshul Kamboz has been included in the team in his place. Aakash Chopra believes that Kamboz should get a chance to debut in this Test. Kamboz has performed brilliantly in first class cricket, and the pitch and conditions of Manchester can be favorable to his bowling style. Apart from this, Kamboz's batting ability can also give additional advantage to the Indian team.

Aakash Chopra's suggested playing XI

Aakash Chopra has selected the following names while suggesting India's probable playing XI:

  • Yashasvi Jaiswal
  • KL Rahul
  • Karun Nair
  • Shubman Gill
  • Rishabh Pant
  • Dhruv Jurel
  • Ravindra Jadeja
  • Washington Sundar
  • Jasprit Bumrah
  • Anshul Kamboj
  • Mohammed Siraj
Challenges and strategy

For India, this Test match is not only an opportunity to level the series, but also an opportunity for players to recover from injuries and give a chance to new faces. Giving a chance to young players like Jurel and Kamboj can be risky, but it can also prove to be important for the future of the team. The Manchester pitch is usually helpful for fast bowlers, and India's bowling attack led by Jasprit Bumrah can give a tough challenge to England. The spin duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar can also play an important role in case the pitch gets turn.
