My early morning revelation for SCG XI

Much better team than the current one but one change - a pacer in place of Kotian. You can't play a Test in Aus - even SCG - with only 2 front line pacers and that too when Bumrah is already exhausted. Need to play Harshit in place of Kotian though I would've preferred Mukesh.

 

I was about to give an upvote before I read the last word.

Mukesh "Marshall" Kumar is the hero that India deserve

He's the best we have right now and he performed decently against Aus A. If I had to select someone for a single match, I would give him a go. But it's a moot point as he's not in the squad. So pick between Harshit and Prasidh and give them a go.

Replace Siraj with Harshit.

 

The 2 unkeels are undroppable.

Harshit is a fighter and should not be sidelined based on one bad day, that too with the pink ball. 

 

He needs to be given a long run.

Against NZ we lost tacrically as well, it was like the unlosable 2023 final 

 

Thanks to our Captain "Brearly". He made every possible wrong decision - right from reading the pitch to toss to team selection. And the same trend has continued when he sauntered in the team in Aus. Took a high-performing team and destroyed it.

Looks like Ritika's poems in his bedroom got to his empty head, he really believes his own hype now

I wouldn't mind him either. Wish he had been given some games ahead of BGT series but he was never picked just so that he could have a lower base value in IPL auction

Poems in the bedroom 

 

I want to listen to that poetry too... sounds much more entertaining than Rohit's batting

Naah you need 3 frontline pacers at least, especially when you've Bumrah as one of the pacers who shouldn't be used for long spells.

[ungboysj]

Big mistake by india not picking Mukesh

 

See how Pakistan trundlers are creating havoc in sa

Fair enough. Tough to argue with that. So, Rana or Krishna in place of Kotian.
