Skipper Hanuma Vihari, Mayank Agarwal, Sai Sudarshan and Tilak Varma form the core of the South batting. Tamil Nadu southpaw Pradosh Ranjan Paul, who has had a great start to his First Class career, will look to get among the runs.
Washington Sundar, who has played for India in all three formats, is a threat with bat and ball.
