Ravindra Jadeja has been included in place of Ashwin, while Mukesh Kumar has been included in place of Shardul. In the first test, Shardul failed to perform well with both ball and bat. Whereas Jadeja has played only one Test in South Africa and took six wickets in that match. It has often been seen that the team management shows confidence in Jadeja rather than Ashwin, as the left-arm spinner is considered as an experienced batsman. Famous Krishna managed to retain his place Captain Rohit Sharma was seen spending time with Mukesh Kumar during training and since then there was every possibility of him being included in the playing eleven. However, Prasidh Krishna did not perform well in the Centurion Test and it was believed that Mukesh could play in his place, but Prasidh managed to retain his place. South Africa captain Temba Bavuma has been ruled out of the second Test with a hamstring injury, while Gerald Coetzee has also been ruled out with inflammation in his pelvis.

In the first Test match played at Centurion, Elgar scored 185 runs and the African team defeated the visitors by an innings and 32 runs. Rohit Sharma and Co. will hope to better their performance in the second and final Test starting in Cape Town on Wednesday, January 3.

Aakash Chopra said that, “The news from South Africa is that Temba Bavuma is not there. This is Dean Elgar’s last test match and he is going to play as a captain. He also said that forget about runs, his eyes are on the trophy. So he will be very excited about it.” The former opening batsman further said, “I still feel that the South African batting is weak. If you remove Dean Elgar, it seems that batting is very normal, but it is very difficult to remove Dean Elgar, he does not get out that easily.” Aakash Chopra believes that if India has to win the second Test match, the batsmen will have to perform well here. He said, “I still think that if India has to do well, they need to bat well. He will have to play five seasons. The truth is that South Africa batted a little more in one innings, while India batted completely in two innings.”
Sanjay Manjrekar wants to see this bowler playing in the second test in place of Prasidh Krishna
Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has demanded the inclusion of fast bowler Mukesh Kumar in the Indian team in the second Test match against South Africa at Newlands, Cape Town. Mukesh, who made his Test debut last year against West Indies at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad, managed to take one wicket there. Manjrekar advised not to include Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna together in the playing XI and also stressed on making a balanced combination. Highlighting Mukesh’s ability to adapt to challenging situations and suggesting strategic changes. 58-year-old Manjrekar said that fast bowler Mukesh Kumar can prove to be important for Team India in the upcoming match. Mukesh Kumar should get a chance in the second test match- Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjrekar was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo, “From what we have seen in the first Test, I do not expect Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna to play together in the second Test. There will definitely be a change, if Ravindra Jadeja is fit then it will strengthen our batting. So, if Mukesh Kumar is bowling well in the nets, he can be brought in. He is more suitable for these circumstances.” India are trailing 0-1 in the series after an innings defeat in the opening Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. Manjrekar suggested that, despite the failure in the first Test, captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid could be seen supporting Yashasvi Jaiswal. Expressing hope of a better pitch in Cape Town, this experienced player has expressed hope of an exciting match in the upcoming match. Sanjay Manjrekar further said, “Since it is a two-match series, you are sometimes forced to make some changes. However, I do not think India will make any major changes in their batting lineup. Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid must have seen how Yashasvi Jaiswal played and they will continue to support him. When it comes to batting you can’t change things with selection. You can just hope that the pitch is a little easier to bat on.” Also read: David Warner’s baggy green cap not found, forced to play Sydney Test without it
