India vs England: Shahbaz Nadeem could make way for Axar Patel in second Test; Chepauk pitch might offer some turn

Firstpost  

While Nadeem’s replacement will be decided by Friday, one can expect Patel to replace him after his debut was put on hold by an injury. New Delhi: India could go for one change to their playing XI in the second Test against England starting on Saturday with Jharkhand left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem making way for fit-again all-rounder Axar Patel after his poor show in the series-opener in Chennai. “He was always the first choice to play the opening Test but it will depend on skipper Virat Kohli, head coach Ravi Shastri and bowling coach Bharath Arun,” he added. India’s best bowling performer in Chennai wasn’t required to go for any precautionary scans which will certainly be a relief for Kohli as he expects a friendlier pitch during the next Test starting from Saturday. New Chepauk strip may offer some turn from Day 1 After one of the flattest decks on offer during the first Test in Chennai, task will be cut out for Tamil Nadu Cricket Association’s rookie curator V Ramesh Kumar and BCCI head of pitches and grounds committee head Taposh Chatterjee, to provide a track which doesn’t make toss so crucial.
