This player replaced Rohit Sharma and became the permanent opener of the Indian team, scoring 27 centuries in first-class

Indian captain Rohit Sharma has not being playing for a long time which is why he won't be playing in the Border Gavaskar Trophy (BGT). The situation is so bad that in this series, he has not been able to cross the double-digit mark even once. In such a situation, it is being speculated that Rohit may soon announce his retirement from Test cricket. The fifth Test to be played in Sydney from January 3 may be the last Test of his career.

In such a situation, Abhimanyu Easwaran, who has scored a lot of runs in domestic cricket, can get a place in the Test team as a permanent opener in place of Rohit. Easwaran is also a part of this Indian team that went on an Australia tour. He has been included in the 18-member team as a backup opener. This young batsman from Bengal has been continuously proving himself in domestic cricket. Even before this, Easwaran has been given a place in the Indian squad many times. However, he could not make his Test debut. But after Rohit's retirement, he can be given a chance.

Coming to first-class cricket, Easwaran has scored 7674 runs in 173 innings of 101 matches so far at an average of 48.87, with 29 half-centuries and 27 centuries under his name. His highest score has been 233 runs.
