The Realist Posted October 25, 2024 Author Posted October 25, 2024 Game over for old man Shami? Justice for Jaydev Unadkat?
Serpico Posted October 25, 2024 Posted October 25, 2024 Just 5 pacers for a 5 test series means some net bowler will debut again. Hope they're taking Mayank as the net bowler
Texan Posted October 25, 2024 Posted October 25, 2024 Why no Kuldeep? Wrist spinners are more important in Aus than the finger spinners we picked who rely on the ball skidding. nevada 1

To have zaheer like situation wheee he limped off in the second over of England series and India were left with one bowler short? Or like bhuvi in Australia? The guy haas played a grand total of ONE FC game.. you gotta be crazy to pick smone who has not proved he can last any long format game Edited October 25, 2024 by Jaydev_Unadkat Adamant and Ultimate_Game 1 1

One of them will likely be underbowled. I would play Jadeja+Washington+3 seamers. Maybe NKR/Rana at Gabba, but go with 2 spinners other pitches including Perth
bowl_out Posted October 25, 2024 Posted October 25, 2024 If Easwaran scores a 100 at Perth, will he be dropped for Rohit in the 2nd test? Along the lines of Karun Nair?

Maybe in Sydney & Melbourne. Because Sundar's batting prowess >> Ashwin's. Sundar is the 7th batsman who can chip in with a few overs. The alternative option for that role in the squad is Nitish. It is a toss up between those two IMO. Maybe Sundar at Sydney and Melbourne, and Nitish at Perth and Gabba Edited October 25, 2024 by bowl_out
