IND-BAN Team India Playing XI: Team India is going to play a 2-match Test series from September 19 under the World Test Championship (WTC). Its first match will be played at MA Chidambaram, Chennai. The Indian team has been announced for this match. Young players like Yash Dayal and Akashdeep have been given a place in this team.
While Team India will advance to the WTC final by winning this match, Bangladesh is also in high spirits because it recently defeated Pakistan on its home ground. In such a situation, tough competition can be seen between the two teams. The struggle has begun regarding how Team India’s playing eleven will be in the first test. Meanwhile, Australia’s dashing cricketer Brad Hogg has selected his playing eleven for this test. The special thing is that he has excluded KL Rahul and dashing all-rounder Axar Patel from his playing eleven.

The Team Will Also Perform Well On The Australia Tour
Hogg said on his YouTube channel – Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal will be the opening pair in my playing XI. I will place Shubman Gill at number 3, Virat Kohli at number 4, and Ravindra Jadeja at number 5 for the left-right combination. After this, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, and Jaspreet Bumrah will be in the order of bowlers along with the combination of Sarfaraz Khan, and Rishabh Pant. Hogg says that this team will perform best in Australia. KL Rahul and Axar Patel are not in my playing XI.
Axar Patel In Great Form
Hogg’s decision to drop Axar Patel is a surprising choice as he has been in great form for some time now. He has also been performing well in the Duleep Trophy. Recently, while playing for the India-D team, he scored a brilliant 86 runs in the first innings against India-C. He scored 28 runs in the second inning. While in bowling, he took 3 wickets in both innings.
