Bengaluru, Nov 13 (ANI): Indian team is likely to pick debutant all-rounder Gurkeerat Mann for second Test match against South Africa that begins tomorrow (November 14), hinted skipper Virat Kohli on Friday. The 25-year-old all-rounder, who is one of India's exciting prospects, was added to the side after the team management released three players - Rohit Sharma, Stuart Binny and Ishant Sharma -- to play domestic matches. Indian leads the fourth Test match series by 1-0. Meanwhile, captain of South African test cricket team, Hashim Amla, said that all-rounder Jean-Paul Duminy, who missed the first Test due to injury, was fit to play. South African team is reeling under a series of injury. Premier fast bowler Dale Steyn has a groin injury and Vernon Philander has ruled him out of the series. South African batsman AB de Villiers is set to play his 100th Test match.
