Dhoni was generous with Rahul after the test saying, “He (Rahul) should not be judged by just two innings.”
Now the question is that will Virat Kohli pay heed to the advice of his former captain and give Rahul another chance or go back to Rohit Sharma or will he try out Raina?
Indeed, this could be the last chance for Raina who played his last test way back in 2012, to make a come back for which he is trying desperately ( He was seen knocking the ball at nets in Melboune for hours).
All in all, with all probability, Virat won't disturb the opening pair and would rather concentrate on a player who could fit into slot six.
