Former India cricketers Sanjay Manjrekar and Sanjay Bangar sparked a fresh selection headache for the Ajit Agarkar-led committee.

In an interaction with Star Sports, Sanjay Bangar said that he would pick KL Rahul as his first-choice wicketkeeper-batter who will come in at no.5. However, he wants Sanju Samson as the backup wicketkeeper ahead of Rishabh Pant,

Despite poor run with bat Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be forming the core of Indian batting. There is also concerns over the availability of pace duo of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami.

Mohammad Kaif said Ajit Agarkar should think about KL Rahul or Rishabh Pant as India's next Test captain, as “killing golden goose Bumrah” is not a good idea.
