Rajat Patidar may be out
In the second Test match against England, Rajat Patidar got a chance to debut in the absence of KL Rahul. However, till now Rajat has not been able to fully capitalize on this opportunity. Due to which now if KL Rahul returns in the fourth test match, Rajat Patidar can be dropped from the playing eleven.
On the other hand, Dhruv Jurel and Sarfaraz Khan also got a chance to debut. Which both these players capitalized on with both hands. Dhruv Jurel and Sarfaraz Khan played excellent innings in both the matches. Due to which now only Rajat Patidar can be out of the fourth test match.
After the post-match press conference was over, when a journalist asked how close KL Rahul is, Rohit Sharma responded “ he should be okay. ”
It will be great if he plays the next match. But if he doesn’t then also it’s okay, health is also important. Eagerly waiting…!!! pic.twitter.com/8siUewS3DS

Rajat was out for 5 runs in the first innings of the third Test match and was out without opening the account in the second innings.
In such a situation, the selectors will be in no mood to give another chance to Rajat Patidar. If KL Rahul is completely fit then he can definitely return to the playing eleven in the Ranchi Test match. KL Rahul’s current form is also very good. Rahul played an excellent innings in the first match of the series.
