IND vs NZ: Will Rohit-Gambhir try Pakistan's formula? Changes were also made in the playing-11 of Team India

Cricket News Desk. Last week proved to be quite shocking for Test cricket. Two test matches were being played simultaneously in India and Pakistan and the results of both were not as expected. Contrary to expectations, Pakistan defeated England and finally won a Test match on home soil after three and a half years. While in Bengaluru, New Zealand surprised Team India and managed to win a Test match in India after 36 years. By winning this match, Pakistan has leveled the series 1-1 but Team India is currently behind by 0-1 and now it has to make a comeback. Team India would like to do the same in the second Test starting in Pune, but they have to take a big decision regarding the playing eleven, on which all eyes are fixed and it will not be surprising if Team India adopts Pakistan's formula in this. . ,

Pakistan's winning formula
Now the question is, what is Pakistan's winning formula which captain Rohit Sharma and coach Gautam Gambhir can implement in the Pune Test? In fact, after losing the first Test match played in Multan, Pakistan also played the second Test on the same ground. This match was played not only on that ground but also on that pitch. Due to this, the Pakistani team took the field with only 4 main bowlers, out of which only one was a fast bowler while 3 were main spinners. Apart from him, part time spinner Salman Ali Aga was also there.

Now everyone knows that Pakistan won this match easily on the strength of its two spinners Noman Ali and Sajid Khan. Both the spinners together took all 20 wickets of England. There was not much need for third and part-time spinners, while fast bowlers were rarely used. Team India can also adopt the same formula. The same pitch cannot be used as the last Test was held in Bengaluru and the next Test is to be held in Pune, but Pakistan's method can be tried in the playing eleven.

Who will leave Team India?
If reports are to be believed, the pitch of Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on which this match will be held is of black soil. It is expected to have slow and low bounce which will help the spinners. In such circumstances, fast bowlers will not be used much. In such a situation, Team India can drop Mohammad Siraj, who anyway could not make much impact in the last match. Jasprit Bumrah will also handle the responsibility of fast bowling. Like the first test, only 3 spinners can be selected. That means the team can take the field with only 4 main bowlers but changes can also happen here.

Team India can give a chance to Akshar Patel or Washington Sundar in place of Kuldeep Yadav. Both players are better batsmen than Kuldeep. Sundar may have more advantage here as he has been suddenly brought into the team in the middle of the series and even coach Gautam Gambhir has said that considering the number of left-handed batsmen in the New Zealand team, the off-spinner Can be proved. , Be important. In such a situation, Ravichandran Ashwin and Sundar Bey can be off-spinners, while Ravindra Jadeja will trouble the right-handed batsmen.

This will eliminate confusion
This formula can also be the solution to a big dilemma for Team India. The dilemma is to choose between Sarfaraz Khan or KL Rahul. Actually, Sarfaraz Khan scored a century in the first test, while KL Rahul failed. But Sarfaraz got a place in the team because Shubman Gill could not play the Test due to injury. Gill is now fit and will return for the second Test, while Rahul has the full support of coach Gambhir. In such a situation, the question was being asked whether Sarfaraz would be out despite scoring a century? If you go with only 4 bowlers and all three batsmen are included in the same playing-11, then there is no need to do anything like this.

Team India's probable playing 11
Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah.
