Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir is not happy with the performance of the Indian team. During his tenure, India has fallen behind 2-0 in the 3-match Test series against New Zealand. Rohit Sharma and company will try to avoid a clean sweep in the third Test to be played in Mumbai on November 1. For that, the head coach can make some big changes in the playing-11 of the third Test match. This uncapped player can get a place in place of Mohammad Siraj by bowling ordinary in the Test series against New Zealand.
Siraj did not live up to Gautam Gambhir’s expectations
The third Test match between India and New Zealand will be played in Mumbai on November 1. Mohammad Siraj can be kept out of the playing-11 in this match. He took only 2 wickets in 2 innings in the first match. In such a situation, Siraj can be dropped from the third Test. Let us tell you that Team India has lost the series. In such a situation, the team management will try to give a chance to the debutant.
Gautam Gambhir may give the fast bowler Harshit Rana, who has been selected for this series, a chance to debut in the last Test. His performance has been amazing recently. He took 5 wickets in the first innings and 2 wickets in the second innings of Assam in the Ranji Trophy. In such a situation, he may get a chance to play in the first Test for India.
IND vs NZ: May get a chance to debut against New Zealand
Harshit Rana is wreaking havoc with his bowling in the Ranji Trophy. But, he has been called back for the third Test. According to the report of Indian Express, Harshit Rana will be with the Indian team in the third Test to be played in Mumbai. If this happens, Gautam Gambhir can also give him a chance to debut. Rana can support the second fast bowler Bumrah.
HARSHIT RANA IN INDIAN TEAM…!!!!! 🇮🇳

Australia series will also be monitored
After New Zealand, Team India has to fly to Australia. Where a 5 match test series will be played. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has announced the team for this series. In which young fast bowler Harshit Rana has also been included. Rana was seen bowling brilliantly for KKR in the IPL.
He took 19 wickets in 13 matches. He has a lot of variation which can ask tough questions to the Kangaroo batsmen. If Rana gets a chance to make his Test debut against New Zealand, then his performance in the Border Gavaskar Trophy will be on cloud nine.
