According to Media Sources, The Men’s Selection Committee has announced the inclusion of KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel in the India A squad for the second first-class match against Australia A, scheduled to begin on Thursday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). Prasidh Krishna was previously added as a replacement for Yash Dayal, who was named in India’s T20I squad for the South Africa tour.
As Per Media Sources, KL Rahul is expected to open alongside Abhimanyu Easwaran in the upcoming unofficial Test against Australia A. This match holds particular significance as India looks to finalize its squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, with uncertainties surrounding Rohit Sharma’s availability for the first Test in Perth, starting on November 22. Rahul and Easwaran are directly competing for the role to partner Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top of the order. Sources from ESPNcricinfo indicate that Rahul and Jurel, who travelled to Australia in advance of the main Test squad to gain match practice with India A, will both play in the Melbourne four-day game. With Rahul moving to the top of the order, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, who opened in the first unofficial Test in Mackay, is likely to shift to the middle order, while Dhruv Jurel will take over wicketkeeping duties from Ishan Kishan. As the selectors and team management prepare for challenging conditions in Perth, the performances of Rahul, Easwaran, and Jurel in Melbourne will be closely watched. Their displays could play a crucial role in shaping the final squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, particularly if Rohit Sharma is unavailable.
