What happened to handscomb? He was doing pretty well do Australia, right?

[poyzzplaidwell]

i worry for Pucovski.. Bumrah will definitely hit him in the head. What then ?

Play Saini..  Pucvoski may never even play cricket again.  Saini has a killer Bumper & he targets the Head.  Pasli todh bowler

[Serpico]

People are really underestimating Pucovski here. Only 2 of his 9 concussions have been from bouncers. He used to play Aussie football earlier and got concussed few times and the rest were freak injuries. Even if he doesn't score much, if he can shield middle order for a session, it'll be massive improvement for Australia

I think it might work in indias favour that these two might be in the playing side.

 

Been a while since either has played? I could be wrong. Warner based on his insta snaps appears to be in the holidays mode.

 

I get maybe bringing in a form player back into the side from the bbl.

 

I also think that Wade has been doing a good job as opener. 

 

 

[Tyron]

Wade will replace head I reckon. 

 

Warner and puckovski. 3 short cuties

You know what that means right?

 

Bouncer time baby. Puckovski dear lord. He is good but he has been concussed 9 times.

Hope so..  I'd have been worried if they had brought Usman Khwaja back.  Seems Langer doesn't like him. Don't know how Warner will shape up.  Sydney is a patta

Bhai what to do of such a batsmen who with one hit to the head.will be concussed. which Bumrah and Yadav and even Siraj Saini are really capable of. He is a precocious talent no doubt but it takes more then talent to taken on quality bowling in test matches.

Warner is Ashwin's bunny and hasn't been able to dominate quality sides like he used to. I'm more worried about debutant since they tend to do well against us.

 

Also they might play swepson as second spinner in Sydney (they already got burnt with slow overrate) with green covering for third pacer, so that's one more debutant to worry about

[Gollum]

Even if Warner makes it past the quicks' opening spell, he has to face Ashwin who has dismissed him 9 times in 14 innings, 5 times in Aus itself. 2014-15 tour Warner scored 2 100s in Adelaide where Ashwin was dropped for Karn, then when TM went back to Ashwin, Warner was kept on a leash for rest of the series on super flat pitches.

I want to beat Australia in Australia when they are at full strength so they don’t have any excuses left.

Exactly !

 

And it will be even sweeter if we do it without Kohli, Shami and Ishant

That Karan’s selection was so bad, it did cost them that test match.

Warner will obviously walk in if fit .... Give a shot to Pucovski .... Good to see youngsters with potential get opportunities where possible .... SCG is a good venue to make a debut for a batsman

Why do we care who they play? Did we injure Warner by planning or ask Steve Smith to not score runs?

We can beat only what’s in front of us, it’s their job to play who is available. No need to prove anything to anyone.
