New Delhi. The Indian cricket team’s Test series against Australia is being discussed continuously. There is all kinds of discussion regarding the Border Gaskar Trophy, including the playing XI. Team India’s regular wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant is not playing in the series due to being badly injured in a car accident. The selectors have picked Ishan Kishan and KS Bharat against Australia.

The Indian team’s Test series against Australia is being awaited for a long time. KS Bharat, who has proved himself in domestic cricket in the series and has done many foreign tours with Team India, may get a chance to debut. As a wicketkeeper and as a batsman, his claim seems stronger than Ishaan Kishan.

World record in the name of Bharat without playing a match

Although Bharat has not played any test match for Team India till now, but he has landed in white jersey on the field. In the Kanpur Test in 2021 against New Zealand, Bharat got the chance of wicketkeeping for India. Wriddhiman Saha, who was included in the playing eleven, went out of the field after getting injured and got a chance to play as a substitute wicketkeeper.

In this match, along with catching a catch off Ashwin’s ball, he did a wonderful job of becoming the first wicketkeeper without taking a Test debut catch. Bharat also stumped Tom Latham on Akshar Patel’s ball. Earlier, two substitute wicketkeepers had done wonders for stumping but made a world record without taking a debut catch.
