By end of overseas leg he would be spearhead even in tests mark my words.

[mishra]

Great Squad.  But where is  Kuldeep Yadav?

[Trichromatic]

So why didn't Bumrah play a single test out of 6 against SL yet?

[Rasgulla]

When your captain don't trust phasttt yadav.. you need  Bumrah 

 

Brillant from kohli and BCCI

[Jimmy Cliff]

Kuldeep out even though we have a 17-man squad . PaPa the goal-keeper selected again.

[puneet28]

No Vijay Shankar either, what happens if Pandya gets injured? Direct entry for Rohit :haha:

[chewy]

no surprises accept Bumrah, good decision though.

then he should have played this test in place of Shami.

[GolGappe]

Is this a 3-test series or 4?

Good squad. Really happy with Bumrah's selection. You need bowlers with X-factor for these tough overseas assignments.

Would have loved to see Kuldeep in as I feel in long-run he will be a more dangerous option than Jadeja.

why would you need 3 spinners in SA? we are not touring SL or UAE to include a 3rd spinner.

Neither of Ashwin and Jaddu are gonna be wicket taking options and will play a holding role. Kuldeep as a wrist-spinner would have had a better chance as an attacking option and should've been a part of the squad.

[sandeep]

Love the squad, although would have wanted to see Kuldeep in it as well.  

 

Bumrah, Parthiv are deserving selections.

[Gollum]

Aaj se har roz Shiv ji kee aarti utarnee padegee , Saha ko koi injury ho gayee to drop machine Parthiv Patel entry maarega. BC MC selectors, India me koi aur keeper nahee mila in bevdon ko? 

[mancalledsting]

Bumrah should have played this test instead of Rohit-unless BCCI going for pure surprise

Kuldeep could have replaced Jadeja .... although it's hard to imagine the same

Kuldeep will work as relief bowler with his boundary ball every over. He is still very raw and inconsistent.
