After the Test series against England, India has to play home Test series against New Zealand and Bangladesh. After this the Indian team will go on Australia tour. In such a situation, if Ajinkya Rahane had been in good form then Rahane’s name could have been considered.

In such a situation, it will be interesting to see how much they are able to score in the second innings of the semi-final match.
