Following Shubman Gill’s move to the No. 4 spot, the selection of the No. 3 batsman is under scrutiny. According to analysis, B Sai Sudharsan could be in contention. His strong showings in domestic cricket and recent form make him a likely candidate. Karun Nair, who has featured prominently in practice matches, is also considered, though possibly for the No. 6 slot. Further down the order, Ravindra Jadeja is expected to bat at No. 7. The battle for the seam-bowling all-rounder position appears to be between Shardul Thakur and Nitish Kumar Reddy, with Thakur currently favored.
