Team India and Team South Africa are all set to lock horns in a three-match ODI series. The ODI series will be hosted by the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi on Sunday, November 30.
Rahul has been appointed as the skipper of Team India for the ODI series against the Proteas. This happened because captain Shubman Gill and vice-captain have been ruled out with their respective injuries.
Shubman Gill might be replaced by Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top order, while Shreyas Iyer's No.4 could be taken by Rishabh Pant, Tilak Varma, or Ruturaj Gaikwad.
"For Rishabh, he is good enough to play as a specialist batter but we will see tomorrow. We are still discussing the playing XI, we will finalise this evening. Rishabh missed out (from ODIs) due to injuries, we know what he brings to the team. You will know tomorrow but if he plays he will take the gloves," Rahul said, as quoted by RevSportz and PTI.
Ruturaj Gaikwad is a phenomenal player - KL Rahul
He has now staged his India comeback on the back of his heroics for India A against South Africa A, as he slammed 210 runs in the recent series.
"Ruturaj Gaikwad is a phenomenal player. The dynamics of our ODI top 5-6 is such, it is very settled. But he has done well in whatever limited opportunities he has had. Looking forward to giving him the opportunity in this series."
Can't give a definitive answer - KL Rahul
"Can't give a definitive answer, but we recognise that we didn't play well. It won't happen overnight; there are a lot of reasons. How can we individually get better? What technical changes can we make? We can seek answers individually."
