Shubman Gill gets a maiden call-up to the Indian Test squad as selectors announced a 15-member squad to take on South Africa in the upcoming Test series.
He replaces opener KL Rahul, which could well mean Rohit Sharma gets bumped up the order to open the innings.
India’s squad for 3 Tests: Virat Kohli (Capt), Mayank Agarwal, Rohit Sharma, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane (vc), Hanuma Vihari, Rishabh Pant (wk),Wriddhiman Saha (wk), R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Ishant Sharma, Shubman Gill
