- Ajinkya Rahane:
Probably the toughest decision ahead of the game would be to select one of Rahane or Nair. Despite an outstanding feat from the latter not so long ago, Rahane is the one who should ideally make the cut. Rahane has been India’s best bet in test matches across all condition and oppositions. Keeping in mind his super impressive Test aggregate numbers, the Mumbai batsman should walk back into the team. The pressure to perform, though, will definitely be looming around Rahane.
