Cape Town: When the second Test of the India-South Africa Test series starts in Cape Town the next day, the fans are anxious to see what changes will happen in the team. In the first match, India suffered an innings defeat and both the batting and bowling failed. In the Centurion Test, only KL Rahul in the first innings and Virat Kohli in the second innings shone for India.
In this situation, fans are expecting that Aroka will be out of the team for the second Test. Meanwhile, former Indian player Irfan Pathan openly says that captain Rohit Sharma has to make only one change in the team for the second Test. In a discussion on Star Sports, Irfan said that Ravindra Jadeja should be included in the team for the second Test instead of spinner R Ashwin.

Ashwin bowled well in the first Test but what India missed was Ravindra Jadeja’s controlled bowling and batting at number seven. Therefore, Jadeja should replace Ashwin in the playing eleven in the second Test. If I were Rohit Sharma, there would be no change in the bowling line-up in the second Test. I think Prashant Krishna will come back strong, even though he faded in his Test debut. Irfan Pathan also said that Mukesh Kumar can be played in the playing eleven instead of Pashtun if there is a need for change.
In the first match, Prashant Krishna, whose color faded, conceded 92 runs and took only one wicket. In the absence of Mohammad Shami, Prathiam got a chance in the playing eleven.
