Technically, he's never really sucked at Tests.

Okay come on, this is ridiculous. How good do you expect people to be when India has primarily played in bowling friendly conditions since 2019?

Remember when KL and Rohit carried the Indian test lineup to basically winning in England 6 months ago?
We don't have long term memories here unless someone we like does really well.

Did well in SA too. Rahul has been one of the only good batsmen of ours in the format recently.

I personally would have Rohit and Gill as my first choice with Shaw the young prodigy learning from the experienced guys by being a part of the squad .
You know Shaw debuted before Gill right? And actually did fine in NZ before getting booted.

Gill has been a bit of a one hit wonder so far in international cricket.

He's done pretty well for India A lately too. If they want three spinners he deserves his place.

When you play the paddle sweep in the first hour of a test it's no wonder.

Ironically he looked flawed when he was making runs in Australia too. I actually think he's looked better while he's been failing.
I'm a big fan but it's been an odd and disappointing start to his career.

Would have been nice to have a look at a new face tho. Kuldeep's a known quantity.
Kuldeep being a wrist spinner is what's keeping his career alive really. Don't have any better options for red ball cricket. Chahal seems to have given up FC cricket entirely.
Lol Gill. Gifted wicket that. Pitch is an absolute Rawalpindi. No pace, bounce, spin, seam or swing on offer.

Tbf that post reads perfectly fine as a non-Indian fan who just wants to see Shaw get a chance in International cricket

Yep , just that the selection policy is such a circus that Shaw being in the squad would be the first step to reintegration with Rohit Sharma nearing the end of his career .

Pujara runs 62-67 That's a hell of a high spread for someone who hasn't played much lately.

The point you made was fine but your use of the word "our" was confusing in the context of an Bangladesh-India thread there.

Yep. Both him and Shaw need to fix their attitude. Immensely talented but look least bothered to put in the hard yards.
