Rishabh was being seen as the main wicketkeeper batsman of Team India for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy . Pant’s bat produced many explosive innings in the Tests against Bangladesh and New Zealand. But now on the Australian tour, Dhruv Jurel has also strengthened his claim along with Pant.

He was sent to Australia to face the Kangaroo bowlers even before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, where he played for India A and scored a half-century in the first innings of the second unofficial Test against Australia A. Jurel was in great form throughout the innings. In the second innings too, when other Indian batsmen were seen falling like a pack of cards, Dhruv Jurel faced the Australian bowlers bravely. He is seen batting like Rishabh Pant on Kangaroo land.
