England vs India 2018: India's Predicted XI for the 3rd Test

England v India: Specsavers 2nd Test - Day Four
England v India: Specsavers 2nd Test - Day Four

Middle-order:

Cheteshwar Pujara

2nd Test - Australia v India: Day 3
Temperamentally Pujara is suited for these conditions

When every team in the world is longing for a number 3 batsman who averages 50, India is an exception. Pujara was given the cold shoulder in the first Test. When India paid the price he was welcomed back to his dear no 3 spot in Lord’s. Though run-outs continue to haunt Pujara, he fended 87 balls in the second innings which is an achievement in itself considering the time other Indian batsmen spent at the crease.
