My playing 11 would be

 

1. Rohit

2. Mayank

3. Gill

4. Kohli

5. Vihari

6. Rahane / Ashwin ( if extra spinner is wanted )

7. Pant

8. Jadeja

9. Kuldeep

10. Umesh

11. Shami 

 

----  This combination will give chances to Gill, Vihari, Pant and Kuldeep without weakening either batting or bowling.

----  Rahane can be replaced with Ashwin if the pitch looks very flat or more spinners are wanted.

Gill needs to be played in place of  Pujara or Rahane . Pujara has again returned  to his 'once in a blue moon' mode which is going to hurt the team in the long run. We have  much  better 'Bradman at home' Rohit  now. Also Mayank, Vihari  & Kohli too are playing along with all rounders. Still if they feel  uncertain against this  'BAN which lost to Afghans of all teams at home'  at home with out Pujara ,  they even don't deserve to play. Test championship or not, team cannot improve in the long run with out timely  experimentations. The TM should be able to  find a balance between 'being aware of points ' &   'timely  experimentations' moving forward. What not, it would be  these timely experimentations   that is going to earn ' Test championship  points' in the long run.

 

 

 

i think every team will play their best 11 regardless of the competition in the test championship where every win is vital.

Yeah pretty good 11 if we want to try out new players.

I'd actually drop rahane and play gill at 5 ,kuly in place of nadeem ,pant in place of saha

The reason I have included Rahane and not Pujara is because Rahane needs some practice playing in India.

Meaning ?  Is he injured ?

 

And why not choose Siraj then ?  Or Avesh  ?

because Siraj is not world class

Full strength team vs BD who will lose to even our A side. 

 

Rohit

Mayank
Pujara

Kohli -> Gill
Rahne

Vihari
Saha -> Pant

Jadeja

Shami -> Siraj

Ashwin -> Kuldeep 
Umesh 
 

More then enough to thrash BD. But like we do in each ICC tournament, oldies will hog spots, get injured closer to the WC or choke in knock outs and media will blame youngsters.

ICF explodes in collective orgasm as Gill is selected in the squad

Gill will warm bench for next 2 years , am worried he will be deprived of match practice

If Shakib and Tamim are not there, I hope we rest Kohli, Shami, Ishant, Ashwin and Jadeja (all of them should have been rested anyways). Play Gill, Siraj, Shivam Dube, Kuldeep and Nadeem. Would be a shame to watch a full strength Indian team take on a BD A side in India.

Tamim is also going to miss 

then what is the purpose of playing this team? Even with Shakib in , they lost massively to Afghans at home.

this tour will be a good opportunity to rotate players- having said that i am not suggesting to rest all main players but yes they should try to play GILL and one fast bowler , shammi/ishant/umesh are the one selected , they should have picked saini and played one of the three and saini.

I think  India should test  their bench strength  than normal  depending on the BAN team strength. Also they should play extra 2 tests against   any top opposition   in the future  fixture  to compensate for the  wastage of   slot in playing this border  line minnow level team(with out  Shakib & Tamim).

I don't trust our TM to make any changes trying to experiment. Expect the same team that played the second test vs SA to play against BAN.

 

Unless, there are injuries, the likes of Gill, Kuldeep, Pant will continue to be benched.
