Virat Kohli has retired from Tests. It would be hard to replace him at No.4. It will also be interesting to see who takes up the role. The player will be under pressure to deliver for the side. Here, we take a look at the list of three players who could surprisingly get a chance at No.4 in Tests.
1) B Sai Sudharsan
There is a chance that someone new could get a chance to make an impression here. Sai
is an exciting talent, and he has the potential to play for a long time in the baggy blue. A player with a compact technique, Sai will be ideal for the side.
2) Shreyas Iyer could get a chance at No.4 in Tests
The best option for the No.4 slot will be Shreyas Iyer. He has done well at No.4 in ODIS. Hence, there is no reason why he cannot have a good run in Tests, as well. Therefore, he is on this list.
3) Karun Nair
It would be a big ask for Karun. However, it will be a good idea to give someone with experience like Karun a chance to work as the No.4 in the transition era. Meanwhile, India could search a long-term No.4 for the side.
