Harsha Bhogle has his say on Test Team's future
A lot of players who have been good for India, remember India was No 1 on the ICC Test rankings, are of similar age. Need to start getting younger players in so that there is the right mix in the side. I have little doubt that it will happen. https://t.co/pIJjEErr9z
