In an interaction with 7Cricket, Sunil Gavaskar said that Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill will definitely come back into the playing XI in place of Devdutt Padikkal and Dhruv Jurel. However, he feels that KL Rahul will drop down to no.

Sunil Gavaskar predicts two changes for India's second Test against Australia, with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill returning. Captain Sharma will replace Devdutt Padikkal, and Gill may bat at three. Jadeja might replace Washington Sundar in spin bowling.

Shubman Gill, who was forced to sit out in the first Australia v India Test in Perth after copping a blow on his right thumb, returned to the nets on Friday.
