Not Decided What Matches Bumrah Will Play, Nair To Get A Chance: Gambhir
Whether Karun Nair: As India get ready for a tough tour of England in which they will play five Test matches without many senior players, the skipper Shubman Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir will have to make some very tough calls on the batting and bowling front.
First of all, there will have to be a call on who will take up Rohit Sharma's role as an opener -- Yashasvi Jaiswal or Abhimanyu Easwaran. Whether Karun Nair will make a return to the India middle order, and an even tougher question about which matches will pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah will play out of the five that are on schedule. Bumrah is available only for four Tests to manage his workload.
Gambhir said they have not yet decided which four matches Bumrah will play. But he said Nair has a good chance of making it to the playing XI as he has done well recently both in domestic cricket and also for India A.
