I hope the player proves me wrong: Sunil Gavaskar

The first Test match between South Africa and India will start in a few hours at the Centurion venue. Team India hopes to create history by winning the Test series for the first time on South African soil. It is working hard for this. However, former legend Sunil Gavaskar, who is closely examining the exercises and team composition of the Indian players, made interesting comments. The little master said that he did not think that pacer Prasamur Krishna, who had just recovered from injury, was ready to perform in the first match. He expressed doubts whether the pacer, who has recently recovered from injury, will be able to bowl more spells.

I cannot say for sure about Prasid Krishna. He recovered from the injury and returned to the team. If he has to bowl 15-20 overs a day, it is not clear whether he can do it. I hope he proves me wrong. Because if someone proves me wrong it means that Team India is playing well. I will be very happy if India does well,” said Sunil Gavaskar. He spoke to 'Star Sports' about this.

Meanwhile, he said that Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj will definitely be in the final team when it comes to the pace bowling of Team India in the 2 Test match series against South Africa. He said that Bumrah and Siraj will play because of the way they have excelled in Test format as well as limited overs cricket for the last one and a half years. Ravichandran analyzed that India would have to play with four pacers if only one spinner was included in Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Then, if Shardul is taken as an all-rounder, there will be a competition between Mukesh and Pasuram Krishna for another position. There is a possibility of competition between Prasam Krishna, Mukesh Kumar and Shardul Thakur for the selection of pacers.
