He will probably not make first team but this is such a waste considering World Cup is near :((

Correct. Hopefully jadhav gets to bat looks like he is selected as well. Lets see what is made of.

My playing 11 for Australia First Test Vijay Rahul Pujara Rahane Kohli Rohit Naman Ojha Ashwin Aaron Umesh Ishant

Ojha is likely not to play in the Test series. He is only a cover for Saha, and will come back to India when Dhoni joins the squad.

Many of us thought they included him in test squad :hysterical: Then odi and now not even that ...thanks for good news :cantstop:

[Trundler27]

Solid squad for the first test! I would like us to go with 5 bowlers (or maybe 4.5) Dhawan Mooli Pujara Kohli Rahane Saha (would love to have Ojha as the wk here as he is in scorching form with the bat) Ashwin/Jaddu BK (just to strengthen the batting a bit more) Umesh Shami Ishant

[Shivaji bhonsle]

Ishwar pandey misses out without playing a game? Mmm.

[wanted_desi]

Why on earth you need to take 3 spinners to Australia. Karan won't get a chance to play since India will only play one spinner, and jedeja will most likely be replacement of Ashwin incase any injury occurs.

[Austin 3:!6]

Why they picked 3 wicket keepers? - Ojha, Saha, KL Rahul. Our first test is at Gabba which will the fastest track amongst all test matches India will play. There is no test in Perth. Adelaide/SCG will be flat tracks and MCG will offer little pace but not like Brisbane. My team for Brisbane test: Vijay Dhawan Pujara Kohli Rahane KL Rahul Karn Bhuvi Umesh Ishant Aaron

[SRT100]

Raina vs Johnson at Perth :hysterical: Even if he has technique of tendulkar he will fail

Living here in Australia I can tell you that the GABBA is now the fastest track in Australia.

How does living in Australia provides you with this information ?:cantstop: What special advatage does living in Australia grants you that you can asses the pitch totally different from others :hysterical: Gabba can be difficult track to bat when there is grass but it is not even close to quickest Perth is easily the one with most pace and bounce Sydney too can be like gabba now a days if here is grass but flat otherwise same with Adelaide which is mostly play and I have not seen grass there at all Melbourne is probably most difficult because it can but two paced but quickest without a doubt is waca

[brendan07]

gabba has been flat for last few years but the bounce is good.will you guys lay a greentop?

Very unlikely. Typical GABBA bouncy wicket suits Australia the most. One that doesn't turn a grat deal.

[Crookbond]

WC. good thing actually. Now we can compare ashwin ' date=' jaduu and karan[/quote'] Not the WC - India have carried large squads of 18 members to previous tours of England and Australia. The moolah helps.
