However, Harpreet Brar has not started his first class yet. The young spinner is mainly seen as a T20 specialist, who played 96 games and took 87 wickets. He also has 19 wickets in 18 List-A Games. On the other hand, Ravindra Jadeja already has 324 wickets and has more than 3400 runs in 87 tests, but his current form can go against him.
Meanwhile, India’s recent conflicts in Test cricket have increased the increasing pressure on head coach Gautam Gambhir. Former opener Akash Chopra said that India has won only one in its last nine Tests, as since the whitewash of a house against New Zealand in November.

Cricket Pandit excavated a sharp digging in Gambhir, stating that the Indian head coach is getting everything he wants, so now there is no place to give results, and there is no place to excuse.
Chopra said, “Because the selectors feel that whatever the team management is asking is being given. The player you want, the number of players, and the player you are pointing is being given is being given. So, if this is the case, if this is the case, you also need to give results. There is no excuse.”
