3rd Test: Crucial stepping stone for Devdutt Padikkal

Devdutt Padikkal's ability to adapt to different positions in the batting order makes him a valuable asset, especially considering the opportunities in the middle order of the current Indian team. Padikkal will join the India squad in Rajkot on Tuesday ahead of India's third Test against England starting on Thursday. Incidentally, Padikkal received his maiden state senior team call-up when a clutch of the Karnataka top-order bats, including Rahul were away on national duty.
