From Fan POV : Yes From Team POV : Maybe not If Ash picks 0 wickets..It would likely mean that SA batted for only 1 innings and it was an absolute patta (him scoring 100 confirms it) we are 95% sure to lose the match if he picks zero Wickets. So you can expect Jaddu to come back if we have lost the game. if ashwin scores a 100..the match will definitely be a draw as there would be at least 3 more 100's ..... ashwin wont score more thn 30 runs ....saha is a better batsman than ashwin Link to comment

SK_IH Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Absolutely disgraceful,how the hell did we think of winning away series with such thought process and seriously overrating a batsman who is not worth more than 3-40 runs on his good days on such tracks,this is not a joke going on , i am aghast Link to comment

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk they are batsman ,they ll come good and with some right inclusion next test onwards there ll be improvement but how the hell we are expecting bowling all rounder to play at a crucial spot overseas Link to comment

SK_IH Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 tbh i am not that worried about our batting lineup,they ll come good as the series progresses but Ashwin cannot play this high Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Never a number 6. The sad thing is that he obviously has the skills to bat in these conditions but isn't disciplined enough to do it. Pokes at everything these days. It felt like he has been trying to rectify his poking issues this game but couldn't resist doing it. I suggest we play him below Saha. Let him score and rise up if he can. Very poor temperament shown in the last 1 year. Edited January 6, 2018 by sensible-indian Link to comment
Malcolm Merlyn Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Saha our wkt keeper.lol. Link to comment

I don't think Ashwin was originally slotted at 6 . They expected India to be 300 before they lost 4 wickets and saha followed by Pandya will will finish off staffers to give India a big innings lead . Lol I know in have been repeating this for last one year , but I have not seen any one being this dumb in years of watching Indian cricket . Link to comment

It had to be Saha/pandya/Ashwin . Saha is a border line mug . Pandya is a dasher . Link to comment
