MUMBAI: Off-spinning all-rounder Washington Sundar<\/a> is set to continue in the India XI and will, in all probability, feature in the second Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the pink-ball match at Adelaide from December 6, TOI has learnt.
“There’s a 90% chance that Sundar will play in the second Test against Australia at the Adelaide Oval,” a reliable source in the BCCI<\/a> told TOI.<\/p>\n

In a surprising move, India’s team management preferred Sundar over veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin<\/a> and left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja<\/a> in the first Test at Perth, which the visitors won by 295 runs.
The Tamil Nadu tweaker took 0-1 & two for 48, and scored 4 & 29. The 25-year-old scored 42 not out and took one for 38 in the pink-ball tour match against Prime Minister’s XI at Canberra on Nov 30. <\/p>\n

Since he made a rousing Test comeback at home against New Zealand, taking 11 wickets for 115 runs in the second Test at Pune in October, Sundar has been a constant feature of the India XI.
Sundar was recently bought by the Gujarat Titans for Rs 3.2 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction.<\/p>\n
