Dhruv Jurel Could be Rohit Sharma's Back-up During 1st BGT Test vs Australia - Netizens Propose IDEA

Following his brilliant 80 against Australia A in the 2nd Unofficial Test on Thursday in Melbourne Cricket ground, netizens want Dhruv Jurel to be Rohit Sharma 's back-up. While the rest of the batters perished quickly, Jurel held his own and played an impressive innings boosting his case for a spot in the playing XI for the first Border-Gavaskar Test in Perth. Jurel's 80 was laced with six boundaries and two sixes. With Rohit set to miss the first Test due to personal reasons, fans want Jurel to become his replacement instead of KL Rahul or Abhimanyu Easwaran. Rahul and Easwaran failed with the bat against Australia A. Rahul scored four runs, while Earwaran failed to even open his account.
