KL Rahul was targetted a lot but thankfully never called the fans "DOGS" & quoted a Colonizer who was most racist to Indians 🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/dgDX1N48EQ

If we talk about the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia, it's the hosts who have won the toss and opted to bat first in Indore. 

KL Rahul has been excluded from the playing XI and Shubman Gill has come in his place whereas Umesh Yadav has also come in for Umesh Yadav. 

Playing XI of both the teams: 

India: Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma (c), Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Ravindra Jadeja, KS Bharat (wk), R Ashwin, Axar Patel, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj 

Australia: Usman Khawaja, Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Peter Handscomb, Cameron Green, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Todd Murphy, Matt Kuhnemann

The third Test is very important for both the teams as far as the World Test Championship is concerned as Team India will have to win the match to confirm their place in the World Test Championship final and also Australia will also have to win the match to not miss their chance to play the World Test Championship final.
