India is all set to engage with Joe Root and his boys in the five-match Test series which is still more than a month away. However, things are not looking settled for the visitors as reports are coming that their young opener Shubman Gill can ruled out of the first Test against England.

Who Will Open If Shubman Gill Ruled Out Of First Test?

In Gill’s absence, it is likely that Team India will turn to one of the other two openers in the squad; Mayank Agarwal and KL Rahul, to start with Rohit Sharma. Both the openers were not a part of the 15-member squad for the WTC Final.

Agarwal hasn’t appeared in an international game in England but has the experience of 14 Tests behind him. KL Rahul, on the other hand has already played 36 Tests for India, scoring over 2000 runs at an average of 34.59. He also has a stunning knock of 149 runs to his name in the English conditions, which came during a tour in 2018.
