zen Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 With the test series vs WI complete, and first test in Aus scheduled to start on Dec 6th at Adelaide, what is your preferred squad of 16 (Not what BCCI would pick)? UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

But I am not aware of his recent form. Has he done well recently in county/domestics? .... Ideally, you want to take players based on current form UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

zen Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Combination: 5 batmen + 1 WK + 1 AR + 1 Spinner + 3 Pace Bowlers .... la mia squadra perferita: Openers: Shaw and Agarwal Batsmen and WKs: Pujara (can open if required), Kohli, Gill, Pant and Vihari .... and a WK - Saha if fit Pace Bowlers: Bumrah, Shami, Siraj, Yadav, Ishant .... and Pandya (AR) Spinners, 2 from: Ashwin, Jadeja and Kuldeep (chances of playing 2 spinners would probably be at Sydney) fielding in a few youngsters in this series .... youngsters (less than 10 tests or under 25) = orange UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
GolGappe Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) The squad picks itself. India will likely pick 17 players like they did against England. Batsmen: Shaw, Rahul, Kohli, Pujara, Rahane Reserves: Vihari, Mayank* Spin: Ashwin, Jadeja, Kuldeep All-rounder: Pandya, Bhuvi Fast bowlers: Shami, Bumrah, Ishant, Umesh. Keeper: Pant *Mayank may get edged out by Vijay of selectors prefer bit of experience in Australian playing conditions.

SrinjayDutta Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Rahane should be dropped permanently if he fails. Cannot experiment in Aus. This is still India's best chance to win or at least draw a series in Aus. Ind should not try to play a debutant unless hands are forced. Maybe add Siraj.
