Ravi Shastri's suggestion
Former India coach Ravi Shastri and former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar believe that there is a need to change Nitish's batting position, so that the balance of the team can be improved.
Ravi Shastri said, “Nitish should bat at number six. He believes that considering Nitish's performance in Melbourne, it is necessary to bring him up in the batting position. This will give balance to the team and along with giving a chance to five bowlers, there will also be a possibility of taking 20 wickets.
Sanjay Manjrekar tweeted
Sanjay Manjrekar tweeted and said, “After Nitish's innings in Melbourne, his role has now become clear. He should bat at number six in the next Test, Jadeja at number seven and then four fast bowlers should be played. This will further improve the balance of the team.”
Nitish Reddy’s role after this innings at MCG is now clear. He bats at no 6 next Test. Jadeja 7 & then your 4 pure bowlers. Much better balance this way. #INDvsAUS
