Dasgupta: Padikkal's century doesn't guarantee a permanent spot
Following Devdutt Padikkal's impressive 167-run innings against Sri Lanka in the opening Test, ex-India wicketkeeper Deep Dasgupta remarked, "I wouldn't say his position is set in stone after one century, but it certainly provides a significant boost of confidence." Dasgupta further noted that while Sai Sudharsan has performed inconsistently at the number three position, he is currently sidelined with an injury, clearing the way for Padikkal's return.
