I don't think Jadeja is fit enough to play as a bowler... in the 1st Test. However, he could be played as a batting all rounder!

Why do you think so? We will have a better idea of his fitness when he plays the next ranji Match on 30th..will be interesting to see how many overs he bowls...

Sarfraz will get a chance to be in the squad but may not make the XI for the first test at least.

We might win coz of good spin bowling but need runs from Virat of old. Thinking it may well happen.

So, Bumrah, Pant and Iyer - 3 biggies out so far, with Jadeja unsure.

Yeah pure panic stations if Jaddu is not fit IMO.
Then we got,
Rohit
Rahul
Pujara
Virat
SKY
Bharat (wk)
Axar
Ashwin
Kuldeep
Shami
Siraj
Absolutely no runs from that lower order and need not just Virat but entire top order to stand up and give us the runs.

Actually they may want the batting insurance and go with Washy over Kuldeep if Jaddu is not fit, I think.

Yeah I think Pant also being out will make them hesitant to have such a long tail.

Siraj won't play especially Shami and Umesh are there
Australia best chance to win a series in India after 2004 .Pant and bumrah already out ,Iyer and jadeja both are doubtful. Kohli is finished so are Pujara ,KL is mental midget Plus he is on honeymoon period . It's all over 2012 again

Sundar should not be near our test team. He is not even able to take wickets for Tamilnadu in Ranji.

He's not a jet with the ball but he consistently averages around 30, knows how to bowl to a plan and is a seriously talented batsman. If he's picked as an allrounder and expected to make runs or be dropped I think it's fine.
honestbharani
Whatever it takes!!!
Yeah he is fine for a 5th bowler.

In the 4 innings he played this Ranji trophy, he averaged 20 with bat and took just 6 wickets in total. Overall career bat average as well is only 33 with bowling average of 30 in first class. That is not enough to get a place in the Indian team as an all-rounder. There are so many people in first class with better numbers right now who deserve a chance before him.
honestbharani

Dude, you are missing context. He was off and on in Ranji because of international games in between. He was chasing impossible 4th innings scores twice I think and was dismissed cheaply there. And his bowling was actually what got us back into the game once.
Going by sheer FC numbers when our FC is all over the place as it is with 38 teams and a plethora of conditions, when he has actual test match success to show, is just silly.
