The reports also suggest that KL Rahul, who has had a fine run in the series so far as an opener, could be shifted to number three. He is India's leading run-getter in the series and overall second, with 235 runs in three matches and six innings at an average of 47.00, with two fifties and best score of 84 after six innings. With his patient gameplay and rock-solid defence, he has had immense success seeing off the new ball.
