Key Players from Both squad:Β Axar Patel have rescued India on few occasions with the bat and his ability to bat with lower down the order makes him a suitable candidate for Playing X1.
Rohit Sharma has already scored a century in 1st Test and his phenomenal batting is beautifully complemented by spin duo in form of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin.
When it comes to Australia only Steve Smith looks comfortable against rank turners so he would be an automatic choice in the squad.
Talk about enjoying your captain's backing on DRS calls! π π
