IND vs AUS 1st Test: Kuldeep Yadav, who is in excellent form, may be out of the Nagpur test; this player can take his place

The first match of the four-match Test series between India and Australia will be played in Nagpur on 9 February. Both the teams have started preparations for this series. Indian leg-spinner Kuldeep Yadav has also been included in the Indian team for the first two matches of the Test series.

Kuldeep continues to be in fine form, impressing everyone with his performances in ODIs and T20Is, but still, he is unlikely to make it into the playing XI for the first Test match to be played in Nagpur.

Actually, Team India’s all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja will return in the Test series against Australia (IND vs AUS 1st Test), in which case he will be seen batting at number 6 for Team India. Jadeja will strengthen Team India with the ball as well as with the bat.

Ravindra Jadeja recently performed brilliantly in the Ranji Trophy. In such a situation, Kuldeep Yadav is finding it difficult to get a chance in the first Test match against Australia.

Ravindra Jadeja, who has not played for India since the month of August 2021, recently captained Saurashtra in the Ranji Trophy. Jadeja made a strong comeback in the second innings against Tamil Nadu, taking seven wickets. In such a situation, Jadeja, who has taken 242 wickets in 60 Tests, will have a great chance to complete 250 wickets in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
