Ahead of the second Test, let's take a look at 5 possible changes Team India could consider:

AFP [{ "selector": ".qbtqq-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".rftso-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 505px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".ktntg-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Arshdeep for Bumrah

With Jasprit Bumrah reportedly set to miss the 2nd Test, Arshdeep Singh could be handed his Test debut.

Reddy for Shardul

Shardul Thakur bowled only 16 overs in the 1st Test.As such India could bolster their batting with Nitish Reddy instead.

Kuldeep for Shardul

Alternately, India may look to bring in more X-factor into their bowling and include left-arm chinaman Kuldeep Yadav.

AFP [{ "selector": ".iokbs-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".lzidb-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 463px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".fisgq-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Jurel for Karun

Karun Nair did not impress in his comeback Test. India could, therefore, try Dhruv Jurel in his place at No. 6.

AFP [{ "selector": ".daeip-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".aicza-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 463px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".zmldo-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Akash Deep for Bumrah

If India are reluctant to play a debutant, they may also go with Akash Deep as Bumrah's replacement.
