You miss the toss and turn the TV on just as the team is walking out. You see:

 

Agarwal

Shaw

Rahul

Kohli (c)

Gill

Pant (wk)

Jadeja

I. Sharma

Shami

Saini

Bumrah

 

How would you feel?  Ecstatic?  Happy, but a bit worried?  Or question Kohli's sanity?

Actually Pujara has to be in the Gabba test.  As much as we all like Rahul he should focus on t20 & odi as we got back to back world cups & he is a matchwinner.  Rest of the line up is:two_thumbs_up:.  But Shaw Gill & Saini are unlikely to play & we will lose in Gabba.

1st test we usually start poorly. Aim is to bat deep to give us drawing chances, Gabba is their fortress, if we can avoid defeat they might get rattled.

That team is relatively weak and has too long a tail, IMO.

 

Rahul doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the Test team based off of his career so far.  He needs to fix his technique back in domestics and learn to defend. If we're not playing Pandya, then, depending on the pitch we should use a 6th batsman instead of Jadeja, probably Vihari who still gives a part-time spin option.

One thing posters forget about Rahul is that he has failed in almost all matches whenever there was swing or seam on offer.

 

The team would probably be

 

Mayank

Sharma(last chance)

Pujara

Kohli

Rahane(useless)

Pandya

Pant

Ashwin

Ishant

Shami

Bumrah
