Australia vs India: 3 Players who should've been preferred ahead of Rohit Sharma in the Test squad
Rohit's happiness unfortunately came at the peril of some other aspiring youngsters.
3. Ankit Bawne
This is a name that not many might’ve expected to pop in this discussion, but Ankit Bawne’s relentless barrage of scoring runs earns him a mention. Famously renowned for his 594-run partnership with Swapnil Gugale, the youngster has been Maharashtra‘s savior in various critical situations.
He has a fantastic forward stride facing the quick bowlers and being very agile on his feet helps him tackle the trickiest of spinners with ease. With an average of 52.53 and persistent flurry of runs for India A in recent times, it is hard to understand how the selectors have never considered him even once.
The 25-year-old still has a long way to go in terms of mustering enough attention to make his case. He can only do that by registering big scores at regular intervals. With the middle order slots still pretty open, all he has to do is keep doing well in the domestic circuit and hope for the best to happen.
