The fifth and last match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will be played at the Sydney Cricket Stadium from tomorrow. The match will start at 5:00 am. Australia leads the 5-match Test series 2-1. The first match was won by India and the second and fourth matches were won by Australia. The third match was a draw.
This match is very important for India. If he has to keep this trophy with himself and remains in the race for the World Test Championship final, then he will have to win the Sydney Test.
Looking at the Sydney pitch, India can enter this match without any change in the playing-11. Sydney’s pitch is different from other pitches in Australia, here spin gets more help than pace. In such a situation, the Indian team can play two spinners in this match also. At the same time, Shubman Gill’s return seems difficult.
India’s possible playing-11 for the third test…
Gill misses the second consecutive match There is little possibility of change in the batting order of Team India in this match. Captain Rohit Sharma will open with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the fourth match. KL Rahul will be at number-3, Virat Kohli at number-4, Rishabh Pant at number-5. Shubhman Gill may miss this match also. Looking at the pitch, spin all-rounder Washington Sundar will play in his place.
Jadeja, Sundar and Nitish will be all-rounders India had played three all-rounders in the last match. There were two spin all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar. Whereas Nitish Reddy played as a pace all-rounder. Considering the nature of the Sydney pitch, the team can go with the same combination in this match also. Here spin gets more help than pace. In such a situation, it is possible to play two spinners Jadeja and Sundar.
There may be changes in the bowling attack There is a possibility of change in bowling. Vice captain Jasprit Bumrah is in great form. However, he is not getting support from the other end. Mohammad Siraj did not prove to be very effective in the last match. He gave 122 runs in 23 overs in the first innings and did not even take any wicket. At the same time, 3 wickets were taken in the second innings. Sky lamps have also not been effective. Prasidh Krishna can be included in the playing-11 by excluding either Rohit Siraj or Akash Deep.
