What will be your team for 3rd test after the win?

[gattaca]

knowing dhoni no changes

[Sachin=GOD]

Why not? In his current form' date=' Gambhir is not reliable opening for us.[/quote'] When was the last time Gambhir batted at no 6? IMO if we have to have GAmbhir then he should open. Otherwise go with Dhawan-Vijay.

If the pitch is fast .... I am tempted to bring in Pankaj and Aaron in place of Binny and Shami.

[vvvslaxman]

Binny out , Pankaj or Aaron or Ashwin in. as 5th bowler.

[King Tendulkar]

2 changes. This proved we don't need 5 bowlers(binny did not bowl basically) and runs on board win it for us. Rohit in for Binny, strengthens the batting. Ashwin in for jadeja. Real tough on Sir as sparkling runs but we need best spin bowler and he is not delivering with the ball

[wanted_desi]

Shami doesn't seem like 100% Aaron for Shami Ashwin for Binny

[coffee_rules]

Binny is definitely out..Dhoni had more faith in Dhawan bowling than a part-timer like Binny. It is sorry to see a player not contributing anything towards a win, esp due to the captain. He is better off carrying drinks.

How exactly does this 'strengthen' our batting?

Rose bowl would definitely offer some amount of spin. Besides Binny was not doing anything. So he has to sit out. I would play Ashwin because of his batting skills. We are already a batsman short and with Dhoni and unreliable Jadeja we need a batsman who has the technique. So Ashwin must play. 1. Vijay 2. Dhawan 3. Pujara 4. Kohli 5. Rahane 6. Ashwin 7. Dhoni 8. Jadeja 9. Bhuvi 10. Shami 11. Ishant.

You people have been abusing him the same way as Ishant. If he gets a chance I am quite sure he will prove everyone wrong.

We must play 5 bowlers overseas. i have been saying that for 2 years now and finally they have shown the courage to do that. You can't win test cricket by playing defensive. The main aim has to be to take 20 wickets. It is very important to keep the seamers fresh. Luckily for India, England haven't batted long yet, so the fifth bowler's role has not been so important.

lmfao jadeja is not leaving and you know it. he might be banned for the next test but no way in hell will he be dropped jadeja needs to be in the team just to piss england off.

Why not Ashwin. What is wrong with our batting now. Kohli one of the best abtsman in the world is yet to show up. Even without his contribution India did not struggle in the batting department even on green pitch. We need some support for our tiring bowlers.

Who wouldn't have a go at a guy with an avg. of nearly 40 after playing over 50 Tests? Ashwin is a far better batsman than Rohit in these condition. His inclusions will be more ideal.

I am not saying what will happen. Just saying what I would do Love jadeja. Honestly do . Cult figure. But not delivering with ball. Ashwin needs a go.

Ashwin can deliver with the bat as well. Stick with him and include a seamer.

I'm not saying that we necessarily have to bring in Rohit. I already said in an earlier post that we have to drop Binny and bring in either of Rohit or Ashwin. I was just replying to Slickr's post where he (and many others before him in various threads) have said things like "bringing Rohit for Binny would not strengthen Indian batting" or "better to go with 10 men than have Rohit" etc....

Ashwin In for binny. Give Dhawan and shami one more test and bring gambir and aaron in the 4th test if they fail. Bring in Rohit for kohli in the 5th test if he continues to fail. (Unlikely.Kohli is too good. He will strike gold very soon :yay:) But the stubborn captain cool will surely go with an unchanged team on sunday :giggle::haha:
