Rohit Sharma Surprises Everyone by Leaving Out Kuldeep Yadav!
Everyone expected that Rohit Sharma would give Kuldeep Yadav a chance in the playing 11 against Bangladesh at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. But the surprising thing is that Kuldeep did not get a chance in his home. He will be seen bowling in the second match as well. Rohit won the toss in this match and chose to bowl first and said that he has not made any changes in the team.
That is, the same team has been selected in the Kanpur Test as was in the Chennai Test match. The team combination has three fast bowlers and two spinners. India had landed in Chennai with this combination.

Rohit’s Unexpected Decision
Rohit’s decision to go with three fast bowlers is surprising. The pitch in Kanpur is slow and made of black soil. Fast bowlers are not expected to get much help here. In such a situation, it was expected that Team India would field three spinners instead of three fast bowlers. But this did not happen. It was expected that India would play with three spinners in Chennai as well because the pitch there is also helpful for spinners. It was the same in Kanpur. However, Rohit Sharma surprised everyone with his decision and preferred fast bowlers instead of three spinners.
While Rohit Sharma decided that he would go with three fast bowlers, it was decided that Kuldeep would not get a chance in his home. Kuldeep is bowling brilliantly at the moment no matter what the format is. His spin could trouble the batsmen here. Along with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, he could have bundled out Bangladesh cheaply, but now Kuldeep will have to wait for his turn in the Test.
