Vijay over Shaw for experience

Rohit over Rahul for form (also Opening and Australia suits Rohit)

Ishant over Umesh 

Kuldeep over Ash because it's obvious.

Rest pick themselves.

Shaw had a good debut,so won't be dropped

 

Rahul has a 100 against England in last test.

 

Rahane will atleast play 3 test before being dropped.

 

Rohit is selected to be in the playing 11 as he is favourite of team management

 

Ashwin will play on experience card.

 

Ishant , Bumrah , Shami will be the first choice among pacers

[Laaloo]

Rohit as an opener lol

[Straight Drive]

Rohit opener Can't see that happening unless someone tells Virat that Rohit (39.97) is averaging better than Rahul (37.71) and Virat makes a decision totally based on records so far.

[sourab10forever]

Rohit will play

Might as well play him in place of a out of form and out of luck Rahul rather than in place of Rahane

 

Opening might just suit him. We all know he is **** in the middle order.

I was going to show my rage on the Op and then I did a double take on his X1, so instead will shower him with double blessings. Replace Rahane with a Vihari for triple bonus
