Completely agree, after decades Indian team reached at this level where each and every player contributing, more importantly winning the games for India. The last thing i want is experiment with the core test team. We can try something with Opening slot and spin department but according to pitch condition only.
As of now Indian team need to keep some players with the Test squad according to situation. Prithvi Shaw as back up opener, Hanuma Vihari for middle order or in some extent Shubham Gill, Pant as WC batsman and Kuldeep as spinner.
The Australians have a rotational policy, where they regularly rest their top players once in a while. This prevents injuries due to workload, especially for the pace bowlers. Indian players had a lot of issues with injuries recently. Jasprit Bumrah and Suresh Raina are perfect examples. Even younger players are getting affected and one example is that of Kamlesh Nagarkoti (who has been out of action for almost two years now). A rotational policy could have prevented many of these injuries.
Like i mentioned couple of time in our back and fourth interaction that i really don't know much about this rotation policy. I don't even know if they use this method in Test Format or in the shorter format of game.
Having said that i am certain about one thing, no team want to touch their Core Team in the Test format. Even Aussie didn't change much in recent time except Smith/warner due to Ban. Every management can fit 1-2 new face for every series in the squad but getting into the playing XI is another ball game.
As far as i remember Jaspit Bumrah used to skip every T-20 series for quite some time. Suresh Raina got injured during IPL and got kicked out from Indian squad because of his form. he was average Test player anyway so why are we even discussing his name?
Nagarkoti didn't played much game before his injury, only World Cup then couple of domestic games. he was 17-18 year old during that time, its unfortunate that he got injured but i think its not because of Work load. shit happens sometime but if you say NCA didn't take care of him after the injury then i can agree with you.
