“I don’t think that intensity will drop. I am happy that I am leaving when we have won the series. It gives me a bit of relaxation as well. The intensity is going to be the same because it’s a team culture now and not necessarily something to do with me,” captain Virat Kohli said after the 3rd ODI match.
The Indian management might rest the usual suspects and give the green signal to the reserves. Khaleel Ahmed and Mohammed Siraj might get a game as the seamer.
Young Shubman Gill, who impressed Kohli, could be slotted in at the number 3 position and this is the perfect opportunity for him to stake his claim in the side.
“I wasn’t even 10 percent of what he (Shubman) is, when I was 19,” Kohli had said after India’s series win in Mount Maunganui.
