Big Bowling Changes, Sarfaraz Khan Debut, Harbhajan Singh Selects India XI for Second Test Against England

Harbhajan Singh, a former spinner for the Indian cricket team, selected the playing XI for the second Test match against England, which begins on February 2, and he advised significant alterations to the bowling attack. In KL Rahul's absence, Harbhajan suggested that Sarfaraz Khan make his Test debut, with all-rounder Washington Sundar taking over for the injured Ravindra Jadeja. In addition, he suggested that Rohit Sharma replace Mohammed Siraj with Kuldeep Yadav and field four spinners. This implies that the erstwhile star of the Indian cricket team, Jasprit Bumrah, will be the sole specialist bowler in the team."Sarfaraz ought to play at number five, in my opinion. On his YouTube channel, Harbhajan stated, "He has been scoring a lot of runs in domestic cricket and even for India A in the matches against England Lions."According to Harbhajan, the appearance of the wicket at Vishakhapatnam will determine whether Mohammed Siraj or Kuldeep Yadav is selected to play. Given that the track may be favorable to spinners, according to reports, Harbhajan recommended adding Kuldeep while keeping an eye on his World Cup performance."Kuldeep Yadav should be at position 11 instead. In addition to having the variations, he is able to rotate the ball in both directions.

He recently had a fantastic World Cup performance. Kuldeep Yadav is the player the squad should choose if they want to add another spinner. Play Siraj if you think the pitch has something, but use Kuldeep as the fourth spinner if you believe the wicket is turning," Harbhajan said.In KL Rahul's absence, Harbhajan suggested that Sarfaraz Khan make his Test debut, with all-rounder Washington Sundar taking over for the injured Ravindra Jadeja.
