3 batters who can open for Team India in case Rohit Sharma is ruled out of rescheduled Test against England

2. Cheteshwar Pujara

The veteran batter is making his return to the Indian Test side after a while. He has the more idea to play in the English conditions than any other Indian batter at the moment courtesy of his recent county exploits. =

Cheteshwar Pujara filled the big shoes of the great Indian wall Rahul Dravid at number three after his retirement. With Rahul Dravid at the helm as a coach now, he could ask Pujara to do the same job he once used to do for India. Who could forget Rahul Dravid’s opening for India whenever a crisis arose.

It won’t be a surprise if he asks his disciple to open for Team India now if Rohit Sharma is unavailable. Hanuma Vihari could be slotted at number three in such a situation.
