According to multiple media reports, Jasprit Bumrah will be leading the side in his absence. Injured seamer Akash Deep is also unlikely to be available for the final Test and Prasidh Krishna is the front-runner to replace him in the playing XI on Friday.
Earlier, it was reported that the team management was not happy with how Rohit Sharma has led the team in the series and his poor batting was also a concern.
Shubman Gill will come at number 3 and KL Rahul will regain his opener's position with Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Head coach Gautam Gambhir also refused to reveal whether the team will see Rohit Sharma playing in Sydney or not. Gambhir was not happy with the question during the press conference and refused to answer.
One did not realise the enormity of this feat. Harmanpreet is basically a defensive midfielder in footballing parlance and to score 200 goals, is truly a great achievement.
Pakistan, on the other hand, are behind India in second place, with eight points to their name, and also beat hosts China 5-1 in their most recent fixture.
According to the reports, Rishabh Pant will retain his position as the wicketkeeper and Dhruv Jurel might have to wait for his place in the Test side after playing the first Test in Perth which India won under Bumrah's leadership.
Earlier, it was reported that Pant might lose his place in the playing XI as he has made only 154 runs in four Test matches of the ongoing BGT 2024-25. He threw his wickets in both innings of the MCG Test which resulted in India losing the match.
Australia have already announced their Playing XI for the final Test match in Sydney. They have made one change as Mitch Marsh has been rested and all-rounder Beau Webster is set to make his Test debut.
