Battle Between Three Spinners!
According to the report, there can be a black soil pitch for the first Test match at Chepauk. If this happens, then Team India’s focus will be more on spin bowlers. After this, it will be interesting to see who will get a chance between Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel. Apart from this, if the pitch is of red soil, then selecting bowlers will be a big headache for the captain and coach.
In such a situation, Akash Deep can get a chance as the third bowler along with R Ashwin and Jadeja. According to the report, Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja’s place in the team’s playing eleven is considered certain. So now a battle is seen between Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Akash Deep for one place.
Kuldeep Yadav has been 'the future of India's spin bowling' in Test cricket for so long that it's easy to forget he is three months short of his 30th birthday.
