Pants on her toes? Dhruv Juraral remembers India at a hundred, but Gill-Gumbir sends the test signal

After Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Juraral missed the first class hundred. The talented wicketkeeper batsman was unbeaten at 82, when he started the second day’s action against Lions of England in Canterbury. Batting at number five for India A, Jurall started to start carefully. He took a look at the pitch and bowlers. When he started putting the opposition on the back leg.

After Sarfaraz’s dismissal at 92, Jurlel was batting with a well -set Karun Nair. Runs were on the board; India was at the top. And Jurael, named the vice-captain, knew that he had all the time in the world to settle. The wicketkeepers were 8 (23) at one point, but then ran from blocks. At the end of the first day, he was unbeaten at 82 (104).

And it did not take him a long time to go to the first session of the day. He started the day with four. But there was no one hundred. Ajit Singh Dale attracted Jurall out of his off stump on a full ball. He looked at the ball to defend and was caught on the first slip by Ben McCini.

Jurall’s luck is not new with the disappearance for centuries. He scored a brilliant 90 runs in his first Test series against England in Ranchi, but could not reach his tons. And in 2024, playing for India A, he also departed in Australia even after a half -century. And now he scores 94 against England Lions.

Jurall’s talent is such that the management plays him over Sarfaraz Khan in Australia in mid -order. And he has also been selected for the England Test as a backup wicketkeeper and middle order batter. There is something that selectors and management know that he has received a compact defense and can strike quickly if he wants.

Rishabh Pant’s Test Return

The knock will create a healthy rivalry for the wicketkeeper spot. While no India’s first choice is questioning Rishabh Pant’s credibility as a wicketkeeper, his record has not been very good since his record. After playing against Bangladesh and New Zealand, Pant scored just 1 fifty runs in 9 innings in Australia and just 255 runs at 28.33.

Pant played his best knock in Australia. His most memorable performance, Gabba 2021, was below. And he made a name for himself before the tour of 2018-19. But his returns in Australia and overall, since returning, do not have the best performance.

Rishabh Pant’s test data since returning from injury

Pant will not be dropped by Gautam Gambhir or Shubman Gill, but Jurael may still find a place. There is a middle order place for tombs. Now, Karun Nair feels the front-raner for that place, but who knows that his form will be caught. Injuries on a long tour, like this 5-test forest, are almost bound to be almost. In any case, Jurael will be ready.
