In what would be termed as a major setback for India, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill are set to miss the 1st Test versus Australia at Perth. So, with Rohit and Gill set to miss the BGT opener, – who will replace them in the playing XI? Now, this is the question. India play a five-match Test series versus Australia which will also be part of the ongoing World Test Championship cycle. The first of the five Tests takes place at the iconic Perth on November 22. One reckons KL Rahul, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhimanyu Easwaran are in line to open with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the absence of Rohit. Most reckon, given the experience of playing Tests in Australia, Rahul is best placed to open with Jaiswal.
