The second Test match between India and South Africa will start from Wednesday (January 3). The match will be played at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town. This is a do or die match for Team India. Because Rohit Sena is trailing 0-1 in the two-Test series. To stand in the final race of the World Test Championship, it is necessary for Team India to win this Test. India lost the first Test by an innings of 32 runs. Team India wants to avenge this defeat. Also preparing to start the new year with success. But before the second Test, India got a shock. India’s star all-rounder Shardul Thakur is injured. He injured his shoulder while practicing batting in the nets. But even after the ball hit his shoulder, Thakur continued to bat. While practicing balls from the throwdown, the ball thrown by Vikram Rathore hit Shardul Thakur on the shoulder. He was injured 15 minutes into practice. Will Shardul, who was in the first Test team, play in the second match or not? No information has come out on this. All the Indian bowlers except Jasprit Bumrah failed to make much impact in the first Test. Shardul Thakur also contributed huge runs. But Avesh Khan is likely to play in place of Shardul in the second Test.
India has yet to win a Test series in South Africa. After losing the first test, there was no chance of creating history this time as well. So far, India has only managed to draw the home Test series against South Africa once. Now that record is likely to be broken. But it was not an easy task as India did not win a single Test match in Cape Town. In the six matches played at Newlands so far, India have lost four times and drawn only twice. And to avoid losing the series, India must create history this time
Team India:
Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubham Gill, Yasavi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (Wicket Keeper), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammad Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah (Vice-Captain), Purush Krishna , KS Bharat (wicket keeper), Abhimanyu Easwaran, Avesh Khan.
