so 5 Left handers hmm

 

Burns

Malan

Moeen

Curran

Anderson

 

Ashwin lurking? 

 

 

 

You dont let Ashwin lurk with that potential lineup.

 

You bat Ashwin at number 3.

 

FFS Pujara is finished at international Test level. In fact I think Ashwin could easily go tuk tuk for 100 balls and score 20-30runs.

 

In all seriousness he must play. Ashwin for Ishant looms.

 

I said before Mayank for Pujara, Ashwin for Ishant doesnt weaken team India but they may very well strengthen the team.

England's best lineup for seaming tracks. 

 

Burns

Sibley

Hameed 

Root

Stokes

Malan or Pope

Buttler

Woakes/curran

Wood/archer

Robinson

Anderson

 

I think our batting is weaker than them in the middle. Lucky our bowling is better and our openers marginally superior.

Ashwin is averaging 12 against lefties since 2019!

yes, across all formats, he may well be the most deadliest bowler against lefties especially those not geared toward playing spin.

Gosh its like youre an idiot.

 

Did you not realise its a joke and that I actually thought Ashwin should replace Ishant/Jaddu in the team.

 

If you read the entire post I clearly state this.

I think we can get rid of the Joe Root problem if we play Ravi Ashwin but then we'll have to replace Jadeja.

Just play 3 pacers, ishant isn't doing anything. Australia almost won in headingly with 3 pacers

What? Ishant picked 5 wickets in the 2nd test. All top order batsmen. Picked more wickets than Bumrah and Shami.

Getting hameed, ali, curran isn't the problem for any bowler in the team currently

[ShoonyaSifar]

Most likely they will stick to the same 11. But if at all changes have to be considered and the 'template' of 4 pacers and 1 spinner has to be followed, two changes

 

Ashwin for Jadeja

Shardul for Ishant (Ishant was struggling towards the end)

 

Ashwin+Shardul should cover for the batting of Jadeja, plus makes our bowling much more powerful

Yes but if some reports are to be believed then it will be a green seamer! If it is then really we just need 4 pacers, one of them Shardul, & do a Joburg 2018 because Leeds is a proper batter killer as in you can really collapse in a heap there.

Nasser said pitch in all likelihood will be flat.  Overhead conditions will determine the amount of swing/seam
