Sundar is Jadeja's replacement, not Ashwin's.

 

Great find. Absolute clutch player.

Can eve bat at 5. I see no difference in him and other specialist batsmen we have tried

Axar too. 

Axar more for white ball and Washington for red-ball.

Yeah, need to find a left arm orthodox to replace Jadeja in 2-3 years. Either Sai Kishore or Manav suthar. Somehow feel Sai Kishore is more suited for white ball as well

Tall spinners should be preferred unless shorter ones can bat. Sai Kishore is quality

Spot on. Taller bowlers are more serviceable on variety of tracks. Even on dead tracks.

OK, I am automatically disqualified then :-)!!

Sundar should be backed and he can easily play as a specialist batter. He will give you few overs overseas and can be main spinner at home. He has shown great temperament so far in his short career.

So it is fair to say Gauti played a big role in pushing him.

Should focus on Test cricket.  I just hope Agarkar and Gambhir don't make the mistake of picking him in white ball cricket - a mistake we made for over a decade with Ashwin.

Well going by past test series, selectors, coach and captain are hell bent on washy’s progression. Lol at him batting at 8-9 positions. He always batted well in tests and what is even more mind boggling is how many overs he bowled. Moronic team management.

Love Sundar. Fantastic all rounder. However, I don't love that at times his inclusion  results in better spinners than him (Kuldeep) being kept out in games when we need better spinners.

India obviously got spooked after 2 horrendous tail collapses. But they were vindicated in the end. From that point India went toe to toe with England's batting infact outperformed them. Besides Sundar was possibly the best spinner from etiher sides in that series. He had this drift nobody could get.  He totally bamboozled Brook twice in this series on those roads.

Have to see him as batsman who can bowl. Can easily bat at 5
