Openers – Captain KL Rahul will continue to open the batting with his partner and best friend Mayank Agarwal. He missed out in the last game due to a niggle. Mandeep Singh failed to utilise the chance that he got in the last game. However, he might not be dropped as he could be a handy batsman in the middle order as well.
