3rd Test: India v Australia:Pre Match Discussion

Massive game coming up, winner probably wins the series, an Aussie win will be enough for them to retain the trophy.

 

Confirmed: Mitch Marsh sent home injured (and for being ****), Marcus Stoinis his replacement, averaging a whopping 15 with the bat and 40+ with the ball at SS level this season, but when you have Mark Waugh as a selector selections like this aren't surprising, reckon he's a long shot to play at this stage though.

Stoinis is a squad selection - a way for the selectors to force the team to select one of Agar/Maxwell for the remainder of the games.   I wouldn't be surprised if Stoinis plays ahead of maxwell though - aussie team politics are vicious and "Maxy" has done himself no favors with his frequent foot in mouth disease.

If some Indian player is given lbw hope he looks at the dressing room and does what Smith did last match. And hope Chris Broad is the match ref. Would love to see the hypocrisy of the white men called out as it is in full view.

Chris Broad is not the referee for the last 2 games.

His son edged a ball to first slip once and was given not out, would've been Agars first test wkt iirc, Aleem Dar was to blame.

As for Oz one passenger gone in Mitchell Marsh ... do they have the balls to drop the other one - Warner ?

 

He is clueless against Ashwin ... never gonna make more than a quick fire 20 or so.

if you have to drop everyone who is clueless at some point against Ashwin, you will find it hard to maintain a team.

Some are more clueless then others ...

I think the team selection will be a "safe one".

 

However, I would love to see India take a chance with Kuldeep and go in with 3 spinners and a quick. Its going to be a slow pitch so Ishant is not going to be effective. Took only 2 wickets last match too.

 

Kuldeep would be a weapon too with his left arm wrist spinners.

 

 

KL Rahul,

M Vijay,

Cheteshwar Pujara

Virat Kohl

Ajinkya Rahane,

Karun Nair,

Wriddhiman Saha

R Ashwin

Ravindra Jadeja

Kuldeep Yadav

Umesh Yadav,

Warner is always a threat. Its not like he is batting like Phil Hughes or Ben Duckett against Ashwin.

 

He could hurt India anytime in any game.

I get the feeling both Warner and Kohli will deliver in the next match. Its going to be a great viewing experience.

 

I just hope its death by spin, by us.

Yup, would love to see Kuldeep for sure... Ranchi will help him too, and btw is he any good with his bat ? I have heard he wanted to be a batsman at first...

Not sure who the fock this MCGcrap dude is...what's happening here is...he knows that some Indians here on ICF hate Virat Kohli...so he's fueling the fire....and typical region obsessed people are biting the bait ...typical attitude of some posters here...shame.

I think he is a Pakistani but a good addition, I am encouraging some from the Aussie forum to come here let's see.

If it is a spinning track don't know why Ishant is getting persisted with. 

Need to get Kuldeep yadav as the forth bowler and play with 3 spinner and umesh yadav as pacer.

 

knowing Kohli and lack of imagination as a captain I suspect vijay for mankad will be the only change.
