Wriddhiman Saha

India's umbrella man, Saha was phenomenal behind the stumps in the first Test. He took 10 catches in the game and broke the record for the most catches taken by an Indian wicket-keeper in a Test match.

Unless Saha suffers a last-minute injury, he is unlikely to be swapped for Parthiv Patel.

All-rounder

Hardik Pandya

Pandya almost scored his first Test century against South Africa on the second day of the first Test match. Had he not contributed with both bat and ball, India would have suffered a more severe defeat.

With his counter-attacking knock of 93 in the first innings and three wickets in the match, Pandya has cemented his place as an all-rounder in the team for the rest of the series.
