Great review mate.

As I suggested earlier, quite why anyone thinks Ansari can bat certainly isn't based on his domestic performances.
I suppose we should expect one inexcusably dimwitted selection, but this one is up there with the worst that I've seen. .

Seriously think we need to call up some replacements to the squad. If this was a home series we would have no problem in dropping Duckett to bring in a right handed batsman and Ansari to play Leach seeing as they clearly don't rate Batty if Ansari got the nod ahead of him for the last 3 tests. The only option we have in the squad currently is to play the reserve keeper at 4 which is a ridiculous idea and a 4th seamer which is pointless given the tracks we will be playing on. Taking on India away is hard enough to begin with but doing it with one hand tied behind your back is just stupid, continuing to do it is cutting your nose off to spite your face.
