That spot should go to Padikkal or Sarfaraz. Jurel is as good as a pure batter. His performance shouldn't be linked with him as a keeper. Him being a good outfielder is another advantage. Even keeping wise Jurel is pretty good. Just give him a consistent run and he will do wonders with the bat. He is incorrectly being pushed for T20s, he is a proper Test class batter. express bowling 1

It would have been nice if Ashok Sharma was picked ahead of Kamboj in this Unofficial test series. 3 hours ago, singhvivek141 said: Tyagi's future will be decided by this FC season. Very true bro. Hope Mayank plays Ranji Trophy too. 3 hours ago, singhvivek141 said: And why are we forgetting Harshit, he is only 24 y.o. Harshit is not getting to play any FCC and is slowly getting branded as a LOI specialist. And,with some T20I series always around the corner, this will continue unless GG / AA show some foresight regarding his career development. This is why I am happy that Gurnoor is not playing T20Is yet. He needs to play a few more FC matches if there are no tests around.

He is incorrectly being pushed for T20s, he is a proper Test class batter. I liked Jurel as a keeper, but his performance in England last year was horrendous, particularly the match at Lords. Look at the number of byes in the second innings. This was the match where Pant got injured and Jurel came out to keep in the second innings. His byes were a big contributor to the loss. I'm just hoping that was a one off case because he had to come in mid way through the match. https://www.cricinfo.com/series/india-in-england-2025-1445348/england-vs-india-3rd-test-1448351/full-scorecard

That spot should go to Padikkal or Sarfaraz. Sarfaraz first and if he doesn't succeed then Padikkal. As you mentioned, Jurel is a wk and should be a backup for Pant and not a batter. Lord 1

Never that easy to come midway in a test match and get to keep in your first ever game in English conditions express bowling and bowl_out 2

I am not sure how long Kela will play Test cricket. Once he leaves Sai will move up the order. Gill will stay where he is . And someone else play at 3.

They used to take Easwaran for overseas tours but don't remember a back up opener in the squad against Afg

That will be reserved for vaibhav assuming he has interest in playing Tests. Malaware is a MO batsman if i am right.

express bowling Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Gurnoor 2 wickets in his 1st spell. But went for runs too, which was not the case in the 1st innings. Mosher 1

They are probably trying to force the result... It's a race against time kinda stuff. Today is last day. Gurnoor might be bowling bouncer barrages who knows. Others are also going for runs. Bandara seems to be in an all out attack mode to wipe out the deficit
