SA vs IND 2nd Test: After the terrible defeat in Centurion, whether the series will be leveled in Cape Town… or a clean sweep will depend on the performance of the Indian players. But before that, the captain’s decision will also be crucial in this. Captain means the commander of the team, what role does Rohit Sharma play? The composition of the team, conditions, performance and what kind of players get a place in the playing 11, etc. largely depend on the decisions of the captain. There is no doubt that Rohit Sharma is working hard to select the playing XI for the Cape Town Test. However, Rohit is keeping an eye on one thing. Who will Ashwin and Shardul Thakur choose? A discussion is currently going on about the same. They are eagerly waiting to see who Rohit will choose between the two.
There is no doubt that India’s victory or defeat in the Cape Town Test will depend on Rohit Sharma’s decision. Neither of these two players should be selected on that basis in the first Test played at Centurion. In the past, the record of these two players was not good in Cape Town.
Ashwin and Shardul’s record in Cape Town..
Ashwin has played 2 Test matches in Cape Town so far. In that he took only 2 wickets. Shardul Thakur took 2 wickets in the Test in Cape Town. Talking about his last Test match played at Centurion, he took only 1-1 wickets there.
If Shardul is fit..
It is clear that neither Ashwin nor Shardul Thakur fared much better. However, if a player has to be chosen between the two, based on past performances, Rohit Sharma would prefer to go with Shardul Thakur. However, Shardul Thakur’s fitness has also become a question mark. Because. He injured his shoulder during a practice session. Then there were reports that he might miss the second and final Test. Now if Shardul is not available then Ashwin is the obvious choice for Rohit. But, if Shardul is fit Rohit can also keep him as first choice.
Rohit looks at Shardul..
Rohit Sharma looks at Shardul. He trusts more than Ashwin. The main reason for this is the dominance of fast bowlers in Cape Town. Don’t forget that when team India came to play in Cape Town last time, bowlers like Rabada and Johnson took 7 wickets each. Jasprit Bumrah took 10 wickets in 4 innings in Cape Town.
