NEW DELHI: Fit-again KL Rahul could get the nod for the second Test starting in Visakhapatnam on Thursday if he is able to convince the selectors with his match fitness. "It's a five match series and there is no point chopping and changing after one match. It is given to understand that Gambhir would be given a longer rope in the Test series to prove his worth. If India go in with six batsmen, they will preferably pick Rahul and that is the call which the selectors would be taking by Wednesday. If Rahul is match-fit, he would be asked to join the team," the source added.
