wanted_desi Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Look at positive sign: You all can make good money of betting against India in coming series.. Kohli alone cant make India win without Bumrah or BK UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
jusarrived Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Rohit out of Tests is a tactical decision , they will not risk his reputation anymore in a overseas Test series . if he ever makes is way back , it will be for a home series . beetle, Forever Indian, Switchblade and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

That’s actually a huge news because of his direct connection with Bunty Dajdeh... Who is bunty? Rohit married with yuvi's sister and her last name before marriage was Sajdeh.

R!TTER Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 We cannot go with unfit players, period! If Bhuvi is unfit he shouldn't play, having said that my squad would be - Vijay Patel/Dk (w/k) we have opened with WK and bowlers in the past, this trend isn't gonna reverse overnight Rahul Pujara Kohli Rahane Hardik Ashwin Kuldeep Yadav Ishant If Kumar is fit he can replace Ashwin or Sharma.

Room@ Rome Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Why those un- fit listed in team of 18, while someone special left out ? M.Shami need stracher 365 days Ishant do not know why he is in the team? Bhuvi in pain Bumrah not available till second test With all this uncertaintities why so many rubbish player selected by BCCI for test team? Where is iyer? Link to comment
Global.Baba Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 This is a pretty straightforward selection. Nothing out of the ordinary. However, Pant is not going to play ahead of DK. Rahul won't play ahead of Shikhar or Vijay. Only out of the box thinking by this managemenrt at the max might be Kuldeep in place of Ashwin or Jadeja raki05 and Switchblade 1 1 Link to comment

Room@ Rome Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) I am afraid if India go with 5 specialist bowler our tails will be way too big.kuldeep will be tricky business in place of jadeja in test matches. I think K.Rahul I can trust him in test cricket, than Nair or even DK.my team of 11 in first test Dhawan Vijay Pujara Kohli Rahane Pant (keeper batsman -on début) Ashwin Pandya or Bhuvi (subject to fitness) M.Shammi or Ishant Umesh Kuldeep I would like to take Rahul as 3rd opener depends on Track on July 31st.i will go with 3 fast/medium, fast bowler and one spin bowler if Rahul makes it in xl. Kohli hints to bats at number 5 in test matches in England before tour.I know pant will be India's number 4 eventually after sometime.

express bowling Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) 1. Good squad overall. 2. Good to see no Rohit. 3. Very happy to see Pant included. Deserved it thoroughly. 4. Why Shardul Thakur ? Why is he this default backup option with so many better pacers around ? Rajpoot would have been the best option ... and if not then Siraj. This one is a poor choice. 5. Very happy to see Bumrah in the squad. This may mean that " him missing 3 tests was a rumour ". We need his extra pace, bounce and accuracy used in an enforcer's role.

Jamadagni Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Hardik isn't getting dropped in any test. This going to be the likely XI for the first test. I expect Bhuvi to be fit by then but not Bumrah. Dhawan Vijay Pujara Kohli Rahane Karthik Pandya Ashwin Bhuvi Ishant Shami Not bad. Rahul in for Vijay/Dhawan would be even better but.... UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
express bowling Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Looks like Rajpoot is injured. And Siraj is picking wickets for fun in all the 4 innings he has played for India A in the four day games in England. Siraj has 15 wickets so far in 2 matches with 7 more wickets to go. How is Shardul selected over him ? beetle, LORD_analyst, UrmiSinhaRay and 3 others 1 5 Link to comment

rkt.india Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 i dont like injured players being picked. Bumrah should not have been picked. Include him only once he gets fit to play instead of filling squad with someone injured better to pick someone who is fit to play. I doubt he will recover from the surgery in 14 days.
