Meanwhile, Indian team's vice-captain KL Rahul spoke to the media on Tuesday and revealed some of the team's strategies. Till now speculations were being made that what could be the playing XI of Team India, as well as the question was also that with how many spinners the Indian team can take the field. Not only this, all kinds of talks were being done regarding the opening of Shubman Gill and KL Rahul and the market of speculation was hot. But now Rahul himself has come forward and talked to the media. Some things have become clear from his talk, but some matters seem to be stuck even more. Some questions have become even more prominent now. It is believed that the answers to the remaining questions will be found only when captain Rohit Sharma will go for the toss at Nagpur's Vidarbha Cricket Ground at 9 am on Thursday.

Team India will field with three spinners

Team India's vice-captain KL Rahul has made it clear that the Indian team is considering a strategy to field with three spinners. Although there are four spinners in the Indian team squad, three of them can bat well, but the question will be that who will be the three spinners out of the four, who will be seen playing in the field. Although the answer has not been received from KL Rahul. It is believed that Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will play in the playing XI of Team India. But only one of Akshar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav will play. It can be decided on the day of the match itself. By the way, Akshar Patel also bats well. But Kuldeep Yadav is also an expert in playing short innings, not very big when needed. Now one has to choose between captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid. That is, if one of Akshar and Kuldeep has an entry, then the other will have to sit outside.

KL Rahul ready to play in middle order as well

Meanwhile, KL Rahul also said that if the team wants, they can play in the middle order as well. Team India has three openers in this squad. Captain Rohit Sharma is there as well as KL Rahul and Shubman Gill. Earlier there were reports that KL Rahul would open the innings with captain Rohit Sharma, while Shubman Gill would have to replace Shreyas Iyer in the middle order. But now the way KL Rahul has talked, it is clear that Shubman Gill may also get a chance to start the innings along with Rohit Sharma. If this happens then KL Rahul will have to play in the middle order. Although the final decision of which player will play at this number will be taken by captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid, KL Rahul will also contribute in this as he is also the vice-captain of the team. Although there are many questions, but what will be the decision in the end, it will be very interesting to see.
