Does Hardik Pandya merit a place in the present side?
In the want to take 20 wickets, Virat Kohli has always wished to play five specialist bowlers and so effectively, India's batting ended with Ajinkya Rahane.
That line of thinking it seems like needs a bit of tinkering. All through the series, India's fast bowlers have been magnificent. With them in such rich vein of form, there is no harm in looking to play the additional batsman and dropping one of the seamers to strengthen the batting and reduce the pressure on Kohli a bit.
