World Test Championship: Following a crushing ten-wicket defeat to Australia in Adelaide, India’s hopes of bouncing back in the third Test in Brisbane have taken centre stage. With the series tied 1-1, the stakes are higher than ever, and seasoned batter Cheteshwar Pujara has suggested a key change to the playing XI.

Pujara advocated for Washington Sundar's inclusion in place of Ravichandran Ashwin to bolster India’s batting depth and regain control in the crucial series.
