1 of either Raul or vijay has to be dropped ,both are big failures atm and a young batsman deserves a chance over these failing bozos. 

Jab tak chance nahi doge tab tak paise pata chalega ladke ki ability !

Drop both Vijay and KLR - nonsense of openers. Cannot repeat the same mistake again.

Cook, Elgar, Harris outperformed our openers. Leave out Pathriv and Finch as they were never test openers. Markram proved himself in the very next series against Australia. Finally we are now left with Jennings. So our openers are competing with a failure named Jennings? And the audacity of few posting it's "foolish" to drop them. Wah!

Getting out to good deliveries is one thing, looking clueless & getting bowled as well as giving catch practice to slips off wider deliveries is another.

 

And it's not like Jennings & Elgar have to be taken as the gold standard. This is ridiculous, since they're not good at it we don't have to be either lol.

In SENA this year, our top order has mostly been about Pujara, who is not even considered a SENA specialist
