Gollum Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 What is the hurry, test series is still 3 weeks away. Hope they don't do the selection at 6 am stressing out our players on such a critical day. Knowing BCCI I think that's what is going to happen. Serpico 1

They themselves have had no sporting talent, but now have the power to play shatranj with these talented hard-working youngsters, so they wield it in the worst way possible. A-holes.

Lone Wolf Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Drop Nattu from Test squad.. Don't think Siraj & Shardul are going anywhere. Ishant will be back as well. Umesh &, bumrah should play as well.. (Bumrah only for D/N Test) Porel as well. Jaddu is out so Sundar retains as of now.. Kuly Ashwin & Nadeem three spinners. Batting let's see on Day 5 how Rohit, Gill & Mayank perform. Either way back these three on home games
sage Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Useless to try predicting the team will all be based on injuries
R!TTER Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Useless midget's down under, the Lankans, can't even injure one Eng tootsie! Look at how useful Oz has been to their brethren Vk1 1
Soumo Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Hopefully we don't rush bumrah and shami, umesh is equally good in sc and should spearhead the attack with ishant. BacktoCricaddict 1

Doesn’t matter there will be replacements at home anyways due to injuries etc, better to announce your best team and hope for the best unless some is is really out for long express bowling 1

Maybe because the selected players will have to report to be under a bio-bubble a week to 10 days before the series starts? Not bad to give the picked players time off for a week to 10 days on their return from Australia. With advance notice, they can plan their break the way they want. Also, will we need a bigger ppl, of players in the bubble or can players be added after 2 tests?

Also, will we need a bigger ppl, of players in the bubble or can players be added after 2 tests? That's all right, they can do that a day or two after day 5, no? And why this public announcement? Imagine you have an important exam tomorrow morning and selection merit list based on some other exam is also scheduled to be released tomorrow afternoon/evening. All I am saying is this move is unnecessary, let players forget all else and just focus on the day's play, last day of this gruelling tour. Such announcements may not affect regulars like Rahane, Pujara, Rohit but 50:50 cases like Thakur, Sundar, Saini may have their own worries.
Sonix768 Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Siraj, Shradul and Sundar did themselves a huge favor so mostly they would be selected for this series. Saini really doubtful. Natarajan wont be there for sure as he wasnt selected for Gabba test for skills but just for lack of availability of others. Kind of a SOS call, much like the one sent to Dravid in Eng T20s in 2011.
QuarantineTormentino Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 With so many injury concerns, I would pick a 21 - man squad minimum: Batsmen: Kohli, Pujara, Rahane, Rohit, Gill, Mayank, Pandya, Rahul WK: Pant, Saha, Kishan AR: Ash, Jaddu, Sundar, Thakur bowlers: Bumrah, Ishant, Umesh, Shami, Siraj, Kuly
