Sarfarz

Sundar

Pant (wk)

Axar (home/subcontinent tests)/Hangargekar (SENA tests)

Bumrah(c)

Shami

Mohsin

 

 

 

[vvvslaxman]

India's lack of willingness to phase out oldies is always going to be limit our performance.

rohit? ...

 

would rather have dhull, kunnummal (if he continues form), easwaran, etc ahead of this fatman

 

no iyer outside SC in tests. maybe rinku or patidar. or even SKY.

 

mohsin has not played FCs properly. shami is too old.

Don't forget Rahane.

 

Bigger question is will there still be test cricket in a few years time. Its a dying niche sport.

[R!TTER]

As long as people like us support it in India, tests will not die out here! Don't know about the Insta ADD/ADHD gen 

[Prabhdeep Singh]

After 2023-2025 WTC Cycle:

 

Will be 30 or over in brackets:

 

Shaw

KL (33)

Gill

Pant (WK)

S Iyer (30)

R Bawa/A Tendulkar

Sundar

Axar (31)

K Yadav (30)

M Siraj (31)

J Bumrah (31)

With frequent injuries how long Rohit can play..

[Majestic]

Rohit??

[cricketfan28]

KL will be there , don't think sharma and shami will play.

[Vijy]

a few years later, this is the team I expect the selectors will go with:

 

Rohit

KL

Pujara

Virat

Rahane

Pant (wk)

Jadeja

Bumrah

Unadcutter

Shami

He may not even last till the world cup next year. In a month he will be 36. With his fitness(fatness rather), he will probably manage to play the IPL fully and fizzle out with injuries after that.

Disappointing I would have replaced Bumrah with Ishant.

He will bat in a wheelchair if need be.

Rohit is not missing the WC in India in 2023.
