Probable XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja, KS Bharat (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin/Shardul Thakur, Umesh Yadav/Jaydev Unadkat, Mohammed Shami, Mohammad Siraj

Who will keep wickets for India? Will Team India continue to back KS Bharat or Ishan Kishan? That was the question everyone is asking. Now, by including Bharat, the answer was silently given.

Yes, it is very disappointing not to see him play in this all-important test.

Skipper Rohit, in-form batters Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill will spearhead India's world-class batting lineup against Australia. After a successful season in the Indian Premier League (IPL), veteran Ajinkya Rahane is expected to repay the faith of the selectors in the final. All-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin both featured in India's playing XI when the Kyle Jamieson-inspired New Zealand side defeated India by 8 wickets in the WTC 2021 final at Rose Bowl.

Ashwin, Jadeja expected to start

Interestingly, Ashwin had to warm the bench when India toured England for the five-match Test series. The visitors opted for a 4-1 pace-bowling attack at the time. However, Ashwin is tipped to get the nod as the top-ranked Test bowler will be teaming up with an in-form Jadeja against Australia at The Oval. It was at The Oval where Ashwin registered his best County figures (6 for 27) in 2021. Talking about the pace battery of the Asian giants, senior pacer Umesh Yadav can complement the fast-bowling duo of Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami. All-rounder Shardul Thakur also has an outside chance of making it to the playing XI if Umesh is not considered for the blockbuster clash between the top two ranked teams.

India's predicted XI for WTC final vs Australia:

Openers: Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill,

Middle-order: Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, KS Bharat (wk),

All-rounders: Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin,

Bowlers: Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav/Shardul Thakur.

But they need to consider batting as well from wicket keeper

Ishan kishan scores randomly in T20

This impatient young boy ....is he first of all suitable for this format...

Itne sare logon mein se yehi mila inko...jaruru kuch favor hai....otherwise how he is selected in the squad

Why not Saha...that is my question...he scores at least 50 most of the time...in test matches

Indian team lacks all rounders compare to Australia...

Looking forward for

Ashwin....Go boy ....you can show it all....

Jaddu...show your passion as you do always...

Only two alrounders...

Will they take Thakur???

Thanks for the tag
