**Official** 1st Test @ Perth, 22nd-26th November

[Burgey]

Well he’s got a good record here. Dangerous player. Puts him ahead of others who are unproven or non-events here

 

[Niall]

who are the neutrals supporting here?

The answer as always is Jadeja.

 

[Daemon]

Must say I rather enjoy seeing the hurt in the Australian players’ eyes as they answer yet another question about Indian cricketers that are actually just thinly veiled attempts to elicit praise for King Kohli.

 

[Shri]

"thinly veiled"

 

[Burgey]

I wish your face was thinly veiled. And your posts too.

I know you are progressive but don't force a hijab on me ****

Thinly? Generous.

 

[trundler]

I wish yours were thickly veiled

 

[Daemon]

Read that as thickly veined and was unsure what conversation i’d just walked into

 

[honestbharani]

Given its trundler, age group checks out.

Ideally I want to see spice. I need someone to scream into a stump mike or for Pant to try and reverse hook Cummins for six while India are 50-4 etc.

Nah but seriously I'm looking forward to this. Really enjoyed the last few series between these two.

Fun fact: In Australia Jadeja has only ever been picked for Tests in Sydney and Melbourne

 

[Burgey]

That can’t be right, I thought he’s an all time great?

Thats

He averages 44 with the bat and 22 with the ball in Aus. GOAT.

Hope he plays in perth

 

[govinda indian fan]

Ideally jadeja should play as bishan bedi picked 10 for in perth and pitch is good for left arm spin

I don't get this line of thought tbh. It's not like the grounds are the same, let alone the pitches.

This series feels like it's going to be one big Gambhir-off. India think their side sucks because of recent form, Australia thinks their side is vulnerable and have too many scars.
