Chopra predicts limited chances for left‑hander Saransh Jain in upcoming Tests

Akash Chopra, a former India player, shared his assessment that Saransh Jain's likelihood of featuring in the playing eleven for the Sri Lanka test series remains slim. According to Chopra, the yet‑to‑be‑announced Sri Lankan side is expected to have just one left‑handed batsman, while India’s bowling attack already includes four specialist spinners. He cited recent performances by Manav Suthar, who earned Player of the Match honours, and the return of Ravindra Jadeja as key reasons the team may stick with proven talent. Additionally, the presence of Kuldeep Yadav adds depth to the spin department, further reducing room for a newcomer like Jain.
