4. Kohli

5. Shreyas

6. Pant

7. Washington

8. Ashwin

9. Axar

10. Siraj

11. Umran ... get him in as replacement for Shami

 

....  We need to try young players like Umran and Easwaran against BD

....  Umran's pace was really troubling BD batters. And he will be even more dangerous if he gets reverse on low surfaces. Get him in for Shami.

.... Need 3 spinners in BD 

.... Need the pacers to be skiddy quick, ideal for low and slow surfaces.

 

Strong batting lineup that bats deep to 9.

 

Ash and Axar both capable of scoring strong 50+

 

Love the triple spin attack coupled with Siraj and Umran to bowl the new ball and when it reverse swings.

 

We should be winning this Test comfortably.

Playing XI

Sundar is not in the squad either. It will be kuldeep and the other two spinners push one spot up.

 

Unfortunately, no Umran Malik in the squad either.

Whats Umran's first class stats, is he even ready for tests?

Makes sense. India always plays with two lead spinners in SC conditions.

Rest assure of victory since Unadcutter will be leading our attack.

The hope is that they will come in place of the injured Jadeja and Shami.

 

But dang !  Unadkat has been added.

If KL Rahul is the captain then I am sure India will find it difficult to win tests even against Bangladesh. 

 

Kohli should be the captain. 

[Adamant]

Jaydev shouldn't have been picked. 

I wouldn't have played Umran too, coz he isn't prepared yet. 

 

Siraj with Umesh is good enough.

You can have Washington atleast in the squad and play with three spinners ( Jadeja, Ashwin and kuldeep) if you want.

When you have fans like this it is hard to remove his captaincy
