Melbourne: Leaving behind the bitter memories of the Adelaide Test, players of the Indian cricket team have now slowly started preparing for the Boxing Day Test to be held in Melbourne. Looking at the result of the first Test, there is a lot of change in the playing XI of the second match. One of these major changes will also be in the form of wicketkeeper-batsman.
At this position, Rishabh Pant is expected to play in place of Wriddhiman Saha in the Melbourne Test. Saha did not show anything special in the first Test. He could not even open the account in the first innings, while in the second he reached 15 runs with great difficulty. Now cricket legend Rishabh Pant is talking about being given a chance. Former India team opener Gautam Gambhir has advocated feeding him at number 6.
MSK Prasad, former chief selector of the Indian team, counted his characteristics and said that he is the only Indian wicket-keeper to have a century in Australia and England. Pant should be fed instead of Saha in external condition. He said that India made this mistake in the first test, but should not do it in Melbourne now.
