At the same time, now everyone is excited about the New Zealand Test series. India would like to start with a win as points are important to make it to the WTC final. For this, Team India captain Rohit Sharma can include 5 players of RCB in the playing 11. Let us know, who is he?

These 5 players of RCB will get a chance in the first test!

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli is sure to get a chance in the playing 11 in the first test match of IND v NZ. Kohli plays for RCB in IPL and is also an experienced batsman. Since the retirement of Sachin Tendulkar, King Kohli has been handling the responsibility of number 4 well. However, Kohli's Test career has not been going well for some time. Virat is not able to play big innings but still he is an experienced player, the team will need him at all costs. In the Bangladesh Test series, he scored 99 runs in 2 matches.

KL Rahul

Captain Rohit Sharma can include KL Rahul in the playing 11 of the first Test of IND v NZ. KL is not a part of RCB at present but he can be seen playing with this team in IPL 2025. There are reports that he may be seen captaining this team next season. This player is also very experienced and is known to handle India's lower order and middle order well. In the Bangladesh series, he scored 106 runs in 2 matches. Let us tell you that KL Rahul has already been a part of RCB.

Sarfaraz Khan

Sarfaraz Khan may also get a chance in the playing 11 of the first test of IND v NZ. Sarfaraz can be given a chance in place of Pant. Pant can be dropped for rest and KL Rahul can keep. In such a situation, Sarfaraz's place will be filled. Sarfaraz was earlier a part of RCB and this time it is being said that RCB can again bet on him in the auction. Let us tell you that recently Sarfaraz Khan had scored a double century in the Irani Cup. He had played an innings of 222 runs.

Mohammad Siraj

Mohammed Siraj can also be included in the playing 11 of the first test of IND v NZ. Siraj is currently a part of RCB in the IPL and is one of the experienced bowlers of Team India. Recently he has been appointed DSP by Telangana Government. This is a big achievement for him. Siraj's performance in the Bangladesh Test series was excellent. He also looked quite dominant over the batsmen. He took 4 important wickets in 2 matches.

Akash Deep can be included in the playing 11 of the first test of IND v NZ. Akash Deep has staked his claim in Team India in a short time and it is possible that in future, this player can replace Shami.

India's playing 11 could be like this

Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Sarfaraz Khan, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj
