5 Players who can replace KL Rahul in Tests
He has seriously struggled and has looked tentative every time he’s walked out to bat.
2. Priyank Panchal
Priyank Panchal may not have had the best of times in the last month or so. He’s failed in three successive first-class games which is unusual as he’s been scoring a truckload of runs for Gujarat and India ‘A’ over the last few years. In fact, he has been Gujarat’s most reliable and premier batsman for the last few years.
The Gujarat opener averages almost 67 in the last four Ranji seasons. Moreover, he has been consistently getting runs for India ‘A’ as well. He has put in a string of consistent performances over the last three-four years. Hence, Panchal is very much in the reckoning.
In fact, he may well compete with Abhimanyu Easwaran for KL Rahul’s spot. Panchal has quite a bit of experience as well. He’s been playing domestic cricket for over a decade now. Thus, he may well be ahead in the race to replace KL Rahul.
