With Shubman Gill likely to miss the opening Test against Australia due to a left thumb fracture, the team management is expected to ask Devdutt Padikkal to stay on as cover.
Padikkal, who is currently with the India ‘A’ squad in Perth, could be included in the playing XI if the star top-order batter is ruled out. The 24-year-old Padikkal scored 65 in his only Test against England earlier this year.
