Former India skipper and senior commentator Sunil Gavaskar has said that the Indian team management will play Rishabh Pant ahead of Wriddhiman Saha in the forthcoming four-Test series due to the previous successful experience the young 23-year-old has playing in Australia.

"It is going to be a tough one for the tour selection committee because Rishabh played in all the four Test matches two years ago and he also scored a hundred and he seemed to have got under the skin of some of the Aussie players with his chirping from behind the stumps.
