3 opening pairs India can try for the 4th Test against England  

England v India: Specsavers 3rd Test - Day One
England v India: Specsavers 3rd Test - Day One

#2 Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant

England Lions v India A - Day Three
Rishabh Pant

Rohit Sharma is not part of the current Test squad in England, but he might get a Test recall after a substandard batting performance of Team India. Meanwhile, Rohit is an essential member of India's limited overs squad, but he has not been able to show the same character in Cricket's longest format.

Yet, the limited-overs specialist has played 25 Tests for India and he has an average of 40. Thus if the selectors pick him for the remaining two tests, then he can open for India. Moreover, he is a regular opener in the limited overs Cricket and can score plenty of runs as an opener.
