Ambati Rayudu has been batting for India at number four during recent times. He undoubtedly played some good knocks in the middle, however, hasn't been consistent enough.

There have been some queries about his slow scoring-rate as well. Though, having seen a lot of him in IPL, it's clear that he owns the skill of dislodging the bowlers, be it seamers or spinners. Meanwhile, promoting him a bit up, that is sending him at number three instead of four, might well help India's middle-order chaos.

Then, Kohli can come at four and assemble the innings in the middle. While, Rayudu will get to play his natural game as he won't feel much pressure batting at three, largely because he would have one among Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan playing from the other end.
