At the post-match press conference after the third Test ended in a draw, even skipper Virat Kohli did not rule out the possibility of including him in the squad for the fourth Test.

“We sent him to play, wanted to give him match practice. I’ve not spoken to selectors but all kinds of possibility are there approaching the next Test,” Kohli said.

Considering the nature of track at Dharamsala, India might contemplate playing three seamers and two spinners. Both Ishant Sharma and Umesh Yadav has been impressive with the ball since the beginning of the series and dropping one of them would be a call selectors would not like to make.

The fourth Test will be played at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium from March 25.
