Australia A vs India A games

[Daemon]

I don’t think any of these guys will feature in the BGT unless we have another round of injuries. Great idea to have a shadow tour and it’s good of CA to know their place and oblige.

Should have really picked pradosh ranjan paul. He is future star

 

[Qlder]

Not going to happen but this is what I consider to be the best Aussie A side to play.

1. Harris
2. Konstas
3. McSweeney (c)
4. Philippe
5. Davies
6. Peirson (+)
7. Webster
8. Neser
9. McAndrew
10. Rocchiccioli
11. Boland

That's one deep batting line-up. O'Neill, Connolly and Murphy next in line. Bancroft permanent drinks waiter along with Steketee and Buckingham

Connolly will play in stead of Phillippe IMO. The bloke has already gotten picked in national colours, he's definitely getting picked in this team.

I would go with this for India A:

Easwaran
Ruturaj
Sudarshan
Padikkal
Indrajith
Reddy
Porel+
Suthur
Khaleel
Saini
Dayal

Well if we're talking actual then Bancroft will play instead of Philippe and will open with Harris, so who is missing out to fit Connolly in?

Konstas, McSweeney, Davies or Webster?

If I had to guess out of those four - Webster. Konstas will bat 3, McSweeney is an absolute lock at 4 (he's captain) and Davies at 5. But it could be that Connolly bats like 8 or something silly like that.

would probably swap Rutu and Sai coz I like left-right combos, and I think Kishan will pllay ahead of Porel for sure. Otherwise, that would likely be the side.

I agree, but pretty strange dropping Webster, the 2023/24 Shield player of the year for Connolly.

Oh yeah I'm not making assessments of merit here. But I'm reasonably convinced they'll find a way. Tbf to the bloke he has had a ripping start to his FC career (albeit with ungodly amounts of luck IMO).

In fact I'll go as far to say that I would not be remotely surprised to see him picked in the Sri Lanka touring squad next year. I have no idea why they rate his bowling so highly but they clearly, obviously do.

Really not convinced by Kishan in red ball, but yeah, he is likely to start.

So with Rahul and Siraj dropped from the Test team maybe they should fly them in for the A games

Rutiraj Gaekwad acerages around 43 in fc with str rate of 55.

Shaw averages 48 at str rate 83 and has more centuries per innings and is not even in the team.

How is this low level class C third grade cricketer even in contention for a slot.

Hopefully Easwaran outscores him otherwise we will see yet another humiliation.

I an quite sure Gaekwad won’t even be able to spot the ball in Perth. He is such a talentless hack.

Lol. Shaw is out there getting dropped from Mumbai Ranji team.

 

[Daemon]

Shaw’s body fat % is literally higher than his average this season

 

[CodeOfWisden]

Sundar is a pretty solid player, he can easily bat at 5 and bowl tidy overs.

I would have him over Jadeja in the Perth test.

 

[govinda indian fan]

Feel should have picked kaverappa. he is talented and one to look for in future

Sundar can play in dn test as spinners dont have much to do and he can strengthen batting

Ruturaj is hack but team management made its mind that he will be rohits successor
