After Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Chand Jurail, another youngster may get the opportunity to make his Test debut against England. 27-year-old Bengal fast bowler Akashdeep can play his first Test match in an India jersey in the fourth Test in Ranchi.

 

Akashdeep could be included in the playing eleven in place of Jasprit Bumrah, who has been rested from the fourth Test under workload management. According to sources, the team management and selectors may give preference to Akashdeep over Mukesh Kumar to support Mohammed Siraj in the fourth test.

 

 

Akashdeep recently performed brilliantly for India 'A' against England Lions and took 10 wickets in two matches. Akash has taken 104 wickets in 30 first-class matches at an average of 23.58. At the same time, Mukesh had bowled about 12 overs in the Visakhapatnam Test, but he did not get a single wicket.

 

Let us tell you that the Indian team will try to win the Ranchi Test and win the series. The Indian team led by Rohit Sharma is currently leading 2-1 in the series. After losing the match by 28 runs in Hyderabad, India made a strong comeback and registered huge wins in Visakhapatnam and Rajkot.

 

In Visakhapatnam, the Indian team defeated England by 106 runs. After this, the host team defeated the visiting team in Rajkot by a record margin of 434 runs. The Indian team would like to capture the series, while England will try to level the series.

 

England has not won a Test series in India for 12 years and captain Ben Stokes will be seen trying hard to win the series at any cost. Considering this, the Ranchi Test is expected to be very exciting.
