Aus v Pak 1st Test - Perth

[Frustrated]

Bumrah can be a much bigger asset to the team if he can bat like Shaheen.

He can't bat for crap. Neither can shami. Neither can siraj.

 

Hope future generation of Indian quicks can learn how to slog

I predict them to be all out for less than 300 even this innings.

India can do it again in Australia... We need to plan accordingly.  5 match test series.  We like playing in MCG and heck. Even Adelaide. 

 

Perth

Adelaide 

MCG

Sydney

Hobart/Adelaide 

 

Gabba is under construction & won't host any cricket from now on. 

 

Yeah I don't think Rohit will be gone by then. Though if he does Yashaswi will have a few tests under his belt.

Need KL to settle into no. 3 position and take the role of Pujara, which kind of suits him.

 

 

Gill

Rohit

KL

Kohli

Iyer - I hope we find someone better

Pant

Washington/Jaddu

Ashwin/Kuldeep/Shardul

Shami

Bumrah

Siraj/Prasidh

Head is a match winner with the bat, with the ball and on the field.  Is there anything he can't do?

No need for Oldman Shami...  He should be phased out.  I highly doubt he will be able to play 5 tests in next 14 months.  Should be kept in squad though. 

Prasidh if he does well in SA could be the guy. 

Harshit Rana is other one. 

Siraj will be handy in D/N Adelaide & a possible Hobart Test.

Bowling line up for next year series in Australia... 

Bumrah  (all 5 games) 

Shami (max 2)

Prasidh (all 5)

Siraj ( lock for D/N.. Conditions dependent) 

Harshit Rana (likely test debut) 

Tyagi or Kuldeep Sen

Pretty much can do everything that all our batsmen put together can't do. 

 

Even in India, granted they lost to us 2-1 but head is the only batsman that performed well. Much better than ro ro, ko ko, ra ra and pu pu

Bumrah can't play all 5 games withour breaking down. He should play every alternate games or first 2 games then rest for the third one. Play the final 2 after. 

 

Rest are spot on. Would being kuldeep Sen as well. 

 

Need tall bowlers or else don't bother.

Shaheen Afridi these days is even slower than Arshdeep

Not bending his back. Definitely not fit enough or simply disinterested in test cricket. If pitches like these don't interest a fast bowler, nothing will. Shaheen will very soon retire from test cricket like Amir did. Come T20 games, brother Shaheen will bowl full throttle.

This Labu can't bat at all...only in WC Finals he was trolling us

Even in WC his pace was mid 130s

LE Australia 2 wkts down fr 5 runs.

[Lone Wolf]

Batting last won't be easy here.....  Australia need another Travis Head & Marsh masterclass 

[rageaddict]

Australia batting like phattus. 200+ runs ahead and struggling like a minnow team .

[rageaddict]

Pakistan on the verge of creating history ? Anything around 300 and Pakistan will fancy their chances.
