Despite of his poor form, Ishant Sharma was picked for the remaining matches of the series. Instead Zaheer Khan could have been picked.
On the weather front, there is bad news. Rain is forecast in Ranchi on Thursday afternoon with scattered rain. It could be a truncated match or a complete washout. The D/L method is going to come in play for sure. Lets hope rain keeps away on Thursday.
