Just saw a tweet from someone that sources claim 4th track is going to be a normal usual test wicket. Nothing like the previous 3 low bounce spin wickets. This seems interesting as now India might decide to play only with Ashwin and Jadeja and keep an extra paces instead of Axar but obviously that will hurt the batting to some extent but obviously Axar's main task isn't the batting. I am expecting Ishan Kishan to play the match instead of Bharat this time because Bharath hasn't so far proven anything and obviously Kishan might not get another chance for a long time after this. So technically makes sense as well. Other than this I hardly expect any change.
Bharat didn't do anything special with the bat but it's also true for every top order batter in the team and he hardly made any mistakes behind the wickets if we neglect the few DRS calls.

So i believe they'll go with Bharat again as he's superior WK when compared to Kishan. I'd still prefer spin tracks.
