ICC World Test Championship Final: 3 Indian Players Who Can Be The Game Changers

All eyes will be on the Indian team ahead of the inaugural edition of the ICC World Test Championship final which is about to take place in a few week’s time against New Zealand. India finished at the top of the World Test championship table and is a massive achievement to get into the finals.

The Indian squad for the final was announced a few days back and most of the players from the test series against England were retained. The squad has put in lots of effort to get to the stage they are in and they deserve to be in the final.

Here are 3 Indian players who can be game-changers in the final of the ICC World Test Championship:

3 Indian Players Who Can Be The Game Changers:

Ravindra Jadeja:

Ravindra Jadeja is going to play a huge part in the final as he has been the man in form for India over the last two years in tests. He has performed really well with useful contributions down the order and has also been bowling really well in the overseas conditions too. He is coming back from an injury and is expected to start in the playing XI.

Jadeja offers a lot more in the field and he is one of the complete all-rounders India is having at the moment with Hardik Pandya not bowling off late. He has been in very good form in the IPL and can change the game in a very quick time with the bat. He will be a game-changer for India in the finals of the World Test Championship.

Rishabh Pant:

Rishabh Pant has been phenomenal ever since he returned to the playing XI in tests and has played a lot of impactful innings in Australia as well as in India. He has been a priceless asset and has improved his wicket-keeping skills really well which has solved a lot of difficulties for the skipper.

He is an aggressive batsman and hits a lot of unorthodox shots which is very handy lower down the order. Being a left-hander is an added advantage and he has grown his stature in the Indian team in all the formats. He won the series for India in Australia from the jaws of defeat and will be a game-changer when he gets going.

Jasprit Bumrah:

Jasprit Bumrah has been the best bowler for India in all the formats ever since he has come into the international stages and he has proved that time and again. He knows how to take wickets and is very accurate when it comes to bowling in test cricket. He has taken the responsibility of leading the bowling attack when Ishant is not around.

He can bowl with the new ball or with the old ball and is always at the batsman’s heads. He can hit the yorkers and his variations can be useful too. He hits the 140 kmph-mark consistently and is one of the leading bowlers in the world. He is very tough to face for any batsman with his unorthodox action but is very effective.
