Former Pakistani crickter Danish Kaneria wants to see Suryakumar Yadav make his Test debut in the 2nd India-New Zealand clash on Friday.
Kaneria shared a video on his Official YouTube channel and reviewed the initial Test, which concluded as a draw. The 40-year-old belives India might drop either Cheteshwar Pujara or Ajinkya Rahane over their underachieving performance.
Kaneria also said his views on Ruturaj Gaikwad as a future outlook and assume the youngster should soon be part of the Indian Test match. Although talking about Suryakumar Yadav, Kaneria said:
“For Pujara and Rahane, it’s really important whether they might or might not be playing in the next match. I will definitely go with Ruturaj Gaikwad in the future. If I speak about Gaikwad then he is not in the squad but he should be inducted. Suryakumar Yadav would be a great choice.”
Kaneria added:
“Pujara is really concerned about his batting form and is not scoring runs. It’s now time to give SKY a chance to SKY. I can see the test debut of Suryakumar Yadav in the next match. Virat Kohli will also come and it is to be seen whether Rahane will maintain his place in the team.”
