On the eve of the first Test against South Africa at the iconic Eden Gardens, India captain Shubman Gill stated that the playing XI will be decided on the morning of the match. He noted that the combination is more or less decided, and a call on whether to play an extra spinner or pacer will be made on the D-Day. The biggest question around that is whether star spinner Kuldeep Yadav will feature in the playing XI, or if he will once again have to warm the bench. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/will-kuldeep-yadav-play-first-test-against-south-africa-analysis-of-india-s-predicted-playing-xi-2025-11-13-1017353
With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli no longer available in Test cricket, the likes of Shubman Gill, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant will have to take the majority of the responsibility in the upcoming five-match series against England, especially given their experience of playing in the country in the past. Gill, however, doesn’t have a good track record in England, but Rahul and Pant have been sensational.source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/rishabh-pant-on-course-to-break-ms-dhoni-s-legendary-records-in-england-series-2025-06-19-995373
