In India, Rahul Dravid and Cheteshwar Pujara have stable options at number 3 in the last few years. All this important role is limited during this transition period. In three trials in England, Sai Reformson and Karun Nair have played roles, but have not made it their own – yet.

Timesofindia.com in manchester: An inauspicious in Leeds looked great in Birmingham before the faded moment of the brain in the second innings of the Lord’s Test. Karun Nair’s run in England has so far been a roller coaster and when he looks good, a sufficient contribution in the patch is still waiting. Nair has been fluent in the form of number 6 twice as number 6 and then for the next four innings, but far away from the domination you expect from someone in an important place.Number 3 is a situation on which the past was captured by mythological batsmen like Rahul Dravid and Cheteshwar Pujara and since the selectors started looking beyond the Saurashtra batsman, there are a musical chairs. Shubman Gill wanted to bat there. Rohit Sharma’s decision to move up and down in Australia forced KL Rahul to leave his early place to number. With 3 and now leaving Gill at number 4, management needs to find the right man to serve Indian cricket again for a long time.

This is an important situation as we have seen in the past how to make life easier for man after a number 3. Rahul Dravid did this for Sachin Tendulkar; Cheteshwar Pujara did that for Virat Kohli and now Shubman Gill needs to decide who it does for him. The Indian team started with Sai Reformson, but moved to Nair as the need for a depth of batting forced him to see Nitish Kumar Reddy and Washington beautiful combination. Final result: Four innings, three begin and one ugly dismissal. To be fair, Nair has seen his share, but it is the management that needs to take the call whether they see him working for the ongoing World Testing Championship cycle.

“Karun Nair is becoming spectacular in the 20 and 30s. But the number 3 batsman [batter] Dilip Vengsarkar used to receive centuries. Three hundreds in Lords, who do not think by another Indian cricketer, “Vengsarkar says before giving a cue to Farokh Engineer, who says,” you have got to take the best player for some time. Who is going to give you maximum … We want to win this series. Thinking about the future is one thing. But you have to play your best xi. You are playing here against a world -class side. ,2025 India in Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy India in number 3 vs England

The engineer claims why India should see the best play XI to survive in the series, which they are currently lagging behind 1-2 after Lord’s heart broke. Both Vengsarkar and Engineer have not seen Sai Sudarshan much in the whites and they want India’s number 3 to score on board. “We must choose the best XI. I have not seen much about Sai Reformson. He (Nair) has done beautiful 30 runs, beautiful cover drive and all this. But a beautiful 30 is not expected from number 3. You need to get a very beautiful 100. You need to run on board. You need (to score).

The fourth is increasing around the inclusion of Sai for the fourth Test at Old Trafford starting on July 23, but both Engineer and Vengsarkar have only seen him during the Indian Premier League. When these calls are made, both do not want the age of any criteria and the importance of winning a test first is emphasized.The 87 -year -old engineer said, “You are playing for your country. Your reputation is at stake. So, I will say, forget the age. If he is good, play it to win this Test match,” calls an engineer. “The Indian cricket team held a session of a session in Bekenham on Thursday before transferring the base to Manchester on 19 July. When the side starts again for the last two practice sessions before the test, there is a need to take a hard call on number 3. Now it is time to decide whether the think tank is convinced in converting the 30s into big people in Nair. Or, they will see the way of reforms for the change of luck.
