All-Rounders: Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur
Ravindra Jadeja has been one of the most important players for the Indians in the Test format for the last 5 years or so. He is not only contributing with runs at number 5 in the batting order, but also picking up wickets in the bowling side of things. Shardul Thakur, who also provides useful runs and wickets to the team, will have a huge competition for the second all-rounders place in the India XI with Ravichandran Ashwin, depending on the pitch conditions at The Oval in London.
