First time in over a decade

[Cricketics]

You read down the batting order of Indian line up and first time in over a decade one can question everyone's place for the next game other than that of 2 players Pujara and Kohli. It's amazing how low we have gotten off late in tests. But that also should be an easy selection for captaincy. Kohli.. Serisouly, so many people are wanting pretty much every player in our team to be dropped. Only Pujara and Kohli, I can see who are pretty much the ones not getting the stick. Ojha also you can add as a bowler. that's just 3 players out of 11. Quesitons for 8 player. WOW.

yup... exactly my thoughts.. though I would add Ishan to 'safe' list for now otherwise drop the whole line up.. except these four.

Nomore Ishant. People call him unlucky, he may just be the luckiest Indian Test player. He has already played 47 Tests. His records would probably be as good, or worse, than Manoj Prabhakar. Cant remember anyone getting as many chances. With regards to OP, yes it is a weird situation. Historically we have always had some sort of batting and bowling succession happening. Right now we have none. Then again it is to our credit that we did not plan when we should have (2007 and thereabouts) with our aging warhorses.

Like Clemenza says in the "GodFather" before going to the matresses. "These things need to happen every few years.Gets rid of the bad blood"

And whats worse is that there's a likelihood that if these 3 players (Kohli, Pujara and Ojha) wont perform they will be dropped as the cost of 7 'SENIOR' players having perma place in side.
