So the first match of this series was played in Bengaluru, in which batsman KL Rahul was able to score only 12 runs. After this performance, it seems a bit difficult for Rahul to make a place in the playing eleven of the second test match. Because Shubman Gill may return due to neck stiffness in the first match, apart from this Sarfaraz Khan is in amazing form. Although Rahul had previously performed well against teams like England, South Africa and Bangladesh, but due to poor batting in the Bengaluru Test match, he may have to be dropped from India’s playing eleven. On the other hand, a big statement from Indian cricket team’s assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate has come out regarding this matter. This former cricketer says that there is tough competition to play in the team at this time. There are many players fighting for a place and it is not clear whether Rahul’s place is safe or not? Assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate gave a big statement Let us tell you that India’s assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said in a press conference as quoted by RevSports – There is a fight for a place in the team. Sarfaraz was brilliant, I went to KL after the last game and asked how many balls did you miss and there wasn’t even one. It’s in a good place, but we have to fit seven people there. So yes, there is competition in the team. Ryan ten Doeschate further said about Rishabh Pant – Of course he has suffered some inconvenience. He batted for a long time in Bengaluru, but he will recover before this Test match.
