Squad: Virat Kohli (C), Murali Vijay, KL Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane (VC), Rohit Sharma, Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Wriddhimann Saha (wk), Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammad Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, Abhinav Mukund.

At least One New Pacer should have been picked just to grow him at least.

Shammi Seems to be still having his Knee issue and is now most of the time 135 to 142k where as earlier he was 137 to 146k and most of the times faster than 140k, i see him declining now, unless he sorts out his knee and other fitness issue's ,he has got into.

Even Our Varun is gone bcos of fitness issue's..as soon as fast bowlers start facing fitness issue's their powers decline.

 

Even Umesh..i did not find him at the best in west Indies ..when he is at the best he bowls from 137 to 147k n most times in 140+ zone where as he has been under 140k at least 50 % of times and only very few balls reaching 145k.

Ishant may not be in full practice as he has been relaxing a lot but who knows he may be practicing hard and ready for the tests.

Bhuvi looks the one to sit on bench again.

Hardik may play with ashwin,umesh,ishant/shammi,kuldeep. jaddu wont be in the 11.

Hardik is the golden player and he is sure to play in the 11. 

kudeep ,ashwin are good aggressive spinners and umesh,Shammi are attacking pacers and when they rest hardik will try his bouncers.

Its amazing even when kohli drips saliva while talking of Rohit and Rahane and yet people claim its Bombay lobby and not blame kohli for selecting Rohit in tests and Rahane in ODIs. And this when Bombay lobby has absolutely no clout whatsoever. Can only pray for you guys mental stability if and when Bombay lobby actually gets strong at some point in future. :hysterical:

Considering Shastri is going to be coach soon its just a beginning. :hysterical: God bless you guys!

actually its pretty amusing that you laugh so much and pretend pretty hard go through a lot to pain to claim bombay lobby does not exist when folks like sashtri uncle and sunny uncle categorically state their partiality on air. not sure about lobby but mumbai based players and commentators big up their own.  Rohit is good though, he might come good this time

Do you doubt it with even Zim defeating the Lankans?

Test and ODIs are different. Lankan test team isn't that bad.

 

 

Similar inexperienced Lankan team beat a very similar Aussie test team 3-0 which toured India recently and gave us hard time.

 

Everyone in test is realy good at home. We might win the series against Lanka but it won't be a cakewalk, no test is a cake walk when playing against top 8 teams, especially when you are playing at their home.

Winning the tests in the Lankan's backyard is a different ballgame.. but scoring atleast one fifty vs the weakened SL bowling should be a cakewalk for our top-6

 What posts do Sunny and Shastri hold? How does it helps in selection? How does their partiality in news shows, commentating and post match shows help in selection if they do not hold any position to select? Is logic even known to you?

Anyway no point discussing this with someone who is a racist and hater and distribute racist certificate to everyone. Remember in your one of the post you were clearly showing your hatred for kannadigas and Marathis and yoda-esque was trying to talk logic with only to :wall:    No wonder you have hatred against Sunny and by extension Mumbai.

I too hope Rohit comes good.

Vilander logic : If you are biased in commentating for a certain player they would be selected. Commentators are selectors. LoL. Commentators get sacked by players. Ask harsh a bhogle and here is great mind saying commentators select players.

Yeah, I think Herath and co will give us some tough time though and I hope they test our batsmen so we take out any passenger before we head to South Africa for our biggest test series in a while.

 

That said, our test team is really strong and hoping Rahul shows impressive form again. Looking forward to watching Pujara after his stint in County.

Ishant Sharma got chance after chance since debut..while the same is NOT being given to others...pure bullshyt...How the F is he suppose to improve w/o chances? 

 

Mofo Rohit gets umpteen chances due to being close to RAT and being from certain state...just like Slowhane.
