”We have discussed that”, said Vettori. Because of his batting and his track record at No. 1, I believe Jadeja will play. 6th position.
”The question will revolve around Ashwin and Shardul Thakur. The fourth seamer and all-rounder, but they are both reasonable options “.
”He will be the first choice for most teams, but India may bench their star bowler for the World Cup Final”, according to Australia’s coach Vettori. For the WTC Final, Australia is still unsure of the India bowling lineup.

Despite having a respectable record in England, Vettori believes Ashwin may end up being left out of the starting lineup due to team dynamics.
Although he has played just one Test at The Oval. The seasoned off-spinner has taken 18 wickets overall at an average of 28.11 from seven matches in England.
Ashwin is a fantastic bowler and will be the first choice in most teams. But just the way their lineups are, it could result in him not being chosen, according to Vettori.
We anticipate The Oval to act in the same manner as always.
“It is a good wicket, but as the game goes on, it can be very helpful for the spinners”.
