That’ll be enough against this England line up, unless there’s blazing sunshine in which case they might make 400 at a stretchwhen india keep getting bowled out for sub 300
Haven’t seen Robinson at all tbh but Siraj was wonderful out here. Kid could be anythingKeen to see how Robinson and Siraj go in this series. Both have looked great in the glimpses we've seen, big chance to establish themselves further here.
The one hope is how well Thakur bowled against Australia in the last Test.Thakur for Ashwin a bit dumb. Would have preferred Ishant over Bumrah too but whatever. The batting line up actually looks okay (on paper).
Yes - let's see how much swing he can get in English conditions but I'm very hopeful. Even watching him in the IPL, he seemed to have improved his control a great amount.Haven’t seen Robinson at all tbh but Siraj was wonderful out here. Kid could be anything
Thakur is a very questionable choice imo. Smacks of compensating for indias lack of batting depth. But hey if he pulls off a gabba again it'll look great.That's a gutsy selection from India. Probably the right one.

Some of the shots he played were insanely good!Thakur is a very questionable choice imo. Smacks of compensating for indias lack of batting depth. But hey if he pulls off a gabba again it'll look great.
Who?Burns will be key. He's better than his average suggests and can go big. I'd have kept Ashwin to bowl to him.

Legitimately wouldve gone for both ishant and Siraj over Bumrah on recent form. Ishant's fitness issues make him a bit of a gamble so I guess it makes sense. Hoping Bumrah gets back that ability to move the ball he's lost recently.
Good oneNice
