India’s Test no. 3 conundrum
In a shocking move, Washington Sundar has become India’s new number three in Test cricket, with Sai Sudharsan getting dropped. The position has been up for grabs since Cheteshwar Pujara last played for India in June 2023. Washington happens to be the 7th batter tried at the spot since. The move doesn’t seem right on paper, but it might just work out, perhaps in the shorter term.
