If kohli gets ruled out of 4th test to.....who should take his place???

 

U never know with these injuries and kohli is the main player of this team in every format who by no means shud be rushed into the team. If his injury turns out to be serious who shud take his place. This might be a chance to try an extra batsman before the tough test season begins. 

1. Rohit sharma- Most likely to be picked. But whats the point

2. Shreyas iyer- My pick.....as he has the ability to take aus spinners completely out of the game. My only concern with him was starc who is out of the series. Also a good time to try him as we wud need good backups when overseas tours begin. 

3. Vijay Shankar- He is a good enough batsman and needs to be tried before we go out . He nair n vijay can also fill the 5th bowler quota next game.

As an Australian fan, Rohit Sharma always scares me!
But you are right, Shreyas iyer would be the way to go if he was ruled out.

As much as I hate to say it, Rohit Sharma. 

[tweaker]

Shreyas Iyer

[flat_wicket_bully]

Its either going to be Shreyas Iyer or Rohit Sharma 

[Texy]

Duh it's obvious...we'll bring back Dhoni out of retirement

[express bowling]

Play Jayant Yadav 

 

He is a good batsman in India and can be the 5th bowler

[Pollack]

No one can replace Kohli. His absence would be a big blow for India. However we have players in the team capable to raise their game and fill the void.Technically he should be replaced by Rohit Sharma if fit or anyone honestly.

The thing with playing jayant in this case is we r replacing the best batsman of the team. Had it been rahane in these conditions jayant had a case.

Kohli will play the 4th test, there won't be any need for a replacement

[speedheat]

Rohit sharma for his experience also make ashwin a captain

I don't think icfers here will satisfy unless we bring out kohli clone

[bowl_out]

If that happens, don't think they'll bring in somebody new and play them right away..

If Kohli's injury is bad and he can't play the 4th test, Abhinav Mukund or Jayant Yadav will most likely replace him

Kind of funny how there is no backup middle order batsman in a squad of 16. But it's a home tourney anyway so probably doesn't matter.
