Sydney: Rarely it is seen that a winning combination is disturbed in the mid of the series, but team India did that. In a bid to robust the opening pair Rohit Sharma has been included in the place of Mayank Agrawal.
While the speculations about the place vacated by pacer Umesh Yadav ended and Right-arm fast pacer Navdeep Saini was included in the playing XI. He will be honored with the Indian test cap tomorrow as Team India begins their campaign to get the much-needed lead in the Border Gavaskar series.
Only two changes were made by team management. The third test will begin on Friday in Sydney.
