They won in 2020 under worse circumstances and with smith playing the whole thing. Not saying they win with smith and warner in 2018/19 but.....
But they had already done it once and got the monkey off the back. It’s always difficult to do it the first time.

Have to agree with this 500%.
SA 2006/07, SA 2010/11, SA 2021/22 . In all the 3 series , India froze when victory was in sight ?

Would just like to give handscomb a quick shoutout for his efforts this tour. He came into this series as the 7th/8th choice batter more on form and horses for courses schenanigans than anything else and his numbers probably don't look amazing, but he played a crucial knock in every game except the 4th test and really held his ground while the remainder of the middle order and tail was on fire during the first two tests b

Underwhelming but I guess we"ll take OUR FOURTH STRAIGHT TEST SERIES VICTORY OVER AUSTRALIA.

Just wanted to post this here for a laugh. Somehow Cummins, smith, handscomb and Labuschagne ended up with the same ranking haha.

I am going to present this video to middle school kids as an example of why you shouldn’t do drugs.
I was recording pujara bowling for the lulz and instant reminder why watching on mute is better.

Never mind that, Warner and Renshaw got 4 out of 10.Australia v India 2023 Test cricket: Player ratings

I mean Renshaw scored 4 runs in 3 innings at 1.33 a go. And he still got 4 out of 10 - what would have to do to get less than 4 - take a dump on the pitch ?

Yeah I still think renshaw has potential at test level. He was thrown in and done pretty dirty here. His last year of red ball cricket has been opening in SENA conditions, hell even when he played for AUS-A in SL he was opening. Going from opening in the shield/county to batting 5 vs Jadeja/Ashwin in india on some hard decks is a pretty sudden change.
If he makes runs for somerset/with Aus-A before the ashes (Assume we'll have some kind of prep over there or at the same time like last ashes) he's the guy i'de want opening alongside usman over there unless whiteman makes a bucketload of runs in the ashes.

Whatever it takes!!!
Good series.
AshWIN shows he is the best spinner in the world. Lyon showed he is still very good even though a little predictable when its flat and low bouncy. I think Kuhneman's action is defo dodgy but he may overcome scrutiny by actually not being all that good. Murphy looks the goods but dont wanna jinx the young man who is just starting his career. Lets see how he holds up over the next WTC cycle.
India was missing their two best batsmen for 2 of the 4 tests and yet won 2-1. That is awesome. Virat making runs is good news but the bad news is he has not changed anything and may yet be a sitting duck on any track that does a lot for the bowlers, which seem to be the only tracks we play in these days. I think Kishan or Samson will get to play the WTC final. Bharath played a couple of important knocks but its been his keeping that has been pretty wanting. We might as well play the guy more likely to score big runs if his keeping is not quite the Saha levels that it was built up to be. Nostrils showed why he is so hot and cold. Playing both Shami and Umesh together is not something we need to do anymore now that we have the luxury of actual good new ball bowlers around them.
We may play Siraj Shami Unadkat as the 3 seamers in England and hope Unadkat does the Lord job. Ash and Jaddu must play together and hopefully Ishy Kishy can find some good batting form and help us out at the #6 slot. Shreyas may not be fit and so hopefully we find another good batter to play there, maybe Sarfraz or SKY.

Mr. Glass
i predict he will almost be fit by world cup this year but miss out because he has a little bit of progress left to make. will be surprised if he is not back by early 2024. no way is he missing out on ipl money in 2024
Shri
Mr. Glass
unadkat offers us control and also with his experience, i expect him to do the ishant role. left arm boland
shami seems to have finally figured out how to bowl in england on his last tour. so unadkat and shami bowling as a pair will let siraj do his thing and go all out. it will make the whole attack better.

I'de forgotten undakat exists honestly. I was saying shardul over siraj but I reckon umesh-shami-undakat is the best pace pair for england. Play shardul over ashwin if you reckon the deck is gonna be gabba 2022 levels of seam friendly but otherwise 7.Jadeja 8.Ashwin 9.Shami (1) 10.Undakat (2) 11.Umesh (9-11) is interchangeable.

Mr. Glass
umesh is backup, and is starting to lose his edge slowly. has to phased out gradually but still great at home on abrasive pitches where he can get reverse.
