The first Test between India and South Africa will begin on November 14 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Coming off a strong series win against the West Indies, India look to keep the momentum going against the Proteas. The big news for Indian fans comes through the return of Rishabh Pant, who last played for India during the fourth Test against England before being ruled out due to injury. Pant's Comeback Raises Selection Questions While Pant's return gives India a huge boost, it also does create a big selection headache. With Dhruv Jurel performing so well in India A's series against South Africa A, including two centuries in tough conditions, dropping him will be an extremely tough call to make. But fitting both Pant and Jurel into the playing XI could require changes in the batting order. If India decide to include both wicketkeepers, KL Rahul might be moved to No. 3, followed by Pant at No. 4 and Jurel at No. 5. This approach strengthens India’s middle order but will mean leaving out a specialist batter like Sai Sudharsan.

With Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar and Kuldeep Yadav, there is plenty of bowling depth with the batting not being weakened. Fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj complete a solid attack for the home conditions. If India opt for Jurel over Sai Sudharsan, they would get six bowling options, which is a perfect combination for Tests in the subcontinent. Also, this balance helps the team in different situations that could arise during the match. India XI's Probabli for 1st Test vs SA Shubman Gill (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (vc/wk), Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.
