South Africa vs India test series 2021-22: KL Rahul made it clear that how many bowlers will Team India play against South Africa.

South Africa vs India test series 2021-22: KL Rahul said during the press conference that it seems to me that most teams have started playing with 5 bowlers and every team wants to take 20 wickets.

That’s the only way you can win a Test match. We have adopted this strategy and it has helped us a lot overseas also.

Let us tell you that if Team India decides to go with five bowlers, then there is a lot of possibilities that Shardul Thakur and R Ashwin can be included in the playing XI.

Both these players can also bat and due to their presence, Team India’s batting will also have depth. In this, Shardul can bat at number seven, while R Ashwin can bat at number eight.

The Indian team will play the first three-match Test series on this tour, while after its end, it will play a three-match ODI series.
