Reserve: Sanju Samson

England v India: Specsavers 2nd Test - Day Three

Dinesh has been in and out of the national side since more than a decade. He is now part of India's ODI setup and will be the obvious choice for the wicket-keeper's role. Kerala's Sanju Samson will be a worthy back up wicket-keeper to the Tamil Nadu player.

#4 All Rounders: R Ashwin, Shreyas Gopal and Vijay Shankar

Reserve: K Gowtham & W Sundar

Ashwin could be the captain of the team

This trio of all-rounders have got a lot of variations among them and they would be an asset for any team they play for. With 2 bowling all-rounders and 1 batting all-rounder in Vijay Shankar, they would render a balance to the team.

Their batting abilities will be useful when the match goes down to the wire. They also have decent replacements in K Gowtham and Washington Sundar too. Ashwin could handle the captaincy duties as well.
