The pitch might not be as bowling friendly..

Pretty unfair to assume he's crap and not play him when theres 3 muppets averaging in the 20s. Has to be given a chance. He's not replacing peak sachin.

Whatever it takes!!!
Can replace peak Rahane.
Peak Rahane feels like a myth now that we'll tell to future generations.Can replace peak Rahane.

I think India will play the same lineup.
Would have been better to bring in at least one new seamer (like Umesh) to freshen the attack, even though it would lengthen the tail. But Umesh isn't the worst bat either. So worth a go.

Nah peak Rahane is one of the best batsmen to watch for me. I honestly wish we see all 3 back to their peaks. They all brought something amazing and individual to the table.

Peak Rahane was hilarious. Great to watch, not least because you had no idea what the **** he was going to do in his first twenty balls. Could play like Bradman incarnate, could also play three absolutely awful hoicks in a row and top edge to fine leg.
But yeah from a distance, it doesn't look like the Indian team management are remotely interested in dropping them. They'll probably back their long-term records for quite a while yet.

Peak Rahane was lesser version of Amarnath in 1982-1983 where he scored against West Indies and Pakistan attacks.

Had posted this a few months back, but posting it again.
Rahane is the only batsman in history to average more than 50 at a point after his 25th test and then subsequently go on to average less than 40. This is one record which may last for an eternity. Unless of course Pujara decides to be part of that elite list.

Unless the trio costs India a series.. They ain't going anywhere. At best I hope it's last test for Pujju if he fails as he is real cra* among the 3.

Rahane's catching is quite good. He probably gives you, on average, 1 extra catch every 2 tests in India.

Indian middle order has been criticised a lot recently. Reckon they might be due.
