India has recently had a terrible performance in Test cricket. The club has struggled against the spin at home, and their batting has slumped, which has caused concerns. Due to the ongoing war against pace, things did not turn out well in Australia. Throughout this phase, Yashasvi Jaiswal, the top opener for India, has been one batter who has kept up a little better form.
In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25, Jaiswal amassed 391 runs at an average of 43.44 in five games, making him India’s top run scorer. Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has commented on Jaiswal’s possible future opening partner, despite the fact that KL Rahul teamed him effectively and opened with him for much of the series. The veteran selected Sai Sudharsan to represent India as an opener on the international scene in the future.
The future of Indian batting is Sai Sudharsan, and he is the player that springs to mind for whom we should all be prepared. Jaiswal Yashasvi is present. Rishabh Pant is there following Shubman Gill, who will finally finish at No. 4. You have three pillars, then.
For a while, KL Rahul has been with you,” Aakash Chopra stated on his YouTube channel.
Being the oldest of them all, he is naturally playing as the opener. in order to keep him with you. But when KL Rahul leaves, an opener’s spot will ultimately open up. As the fourth, I see Shubman settling down. No. 4 is where I see his career developing as soon as Virat Kohli leaves. He continued, “So Sai Sudharsan is on my mind.”
Sai Sudharsan has represented India in three ODIs.
Having said that, Sai Sudharsan has amassed 1,948 runs in 28 first-class games, with a respectable average of 41.44 and a best score of 213 runs. In three ODIs and one T20I, the 23-year-old has already played for India. He has amassed 127 runs in three One-Day Internationals, with a peak score of 62.
