    Australia A vs India A games

    He is the pace bowling all rounder. Also plan is to develop him I guess. He wouldn't play if Pandya played tests. India wanted a pace bowling all rounder and Reddy was the best option. 2021 WTC Ind played 2 spinners but post that they have gone with one pace bowling allrounder always...

    Konstas Bethell. Some good talent coming in.

    Rank India's test wins in Australia since 2000

    Don't think have ever played in Hobart. Canberra is not a test venue I think.

    **Official** 2nd Test @Adelaide, 6th-10th December

    Ideally both develop so they can both play 7-8 and India can go in without a spinner in SENA.

    Rank India's test wins in Australia since 2000

    This was also due to not looking at context and people making dumb assumptions. We lost to NZ due to a huge domino effect. First test due to the seaming conditions for first two sessions India got bundled out and lost the match. Panicking, BCCI prepared two dustbowls where India lost both...

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Bumrah Cummins tiebreak is performance in each other's countries. Cummins already has had 2 tours each of SL and Ind.

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Aah ok. Fair enough. What you define as ATGs I consider "GOAT contenders" ie if you say that this person was the best of all time, you could make a credible argument for it.

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    2nd tier though. His away/neutral average is 26+. Averages 29.83 in Asia even with that Pak series. 29 in Bang, 32.81 in Ind, 60 in SL. 27.17 in Eng and 28.33 in NZ.

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Cummin, Rabada will most likely end up as 2nd tier ATGs (Waqar, Walsh). Root too on the 2nd tier with Sanga, Dravid etc. Smith is 1st tier alongside Sachin, Lara etc. Bumrah if he gets to 300 at a same average - he's also tier 1 with the likes of McGrath, Steyn, Marshall etc.
  12. PaulLennon

    Which current players are/will be ATGs?

    Think him and Rabada will be second tier ATGs with the likes of Waqar due to slightly more modest (but still good) away records (25-26 average) compared to their home records.

    Is Bumrah the best cricketer India has ever produced?

    300+ with 20 odd average is not top 7/8, it's top 3

    Australian Doom and Gloom Thread

    Yeah. Test cricket is going the way of vinyl. Certain older fans might like it but there is no money in it (especially compared to other sports) T20 cricket with an expanded 4-5 month IPL with 20-30 teams is the future (maybe 20-30 years from now) but it's coming. IPL has now gone to Mid...

    Jadeja as an AR does, maybe not as a bowler.

    **Official** 2nd Test @Adelaide, 6th-10th December

    That is just mumbo jumbo. India's series vs NZ has no bearing on this series as it was completely different conditions which amplify India's weaknesses (aging spinners in Ashwin/Jadeja, weakness against spin by the Indian batting especially Kohli/KL, ineffectiveness of Siraj on non-SENA tracks...

    Australian Doom and Gloom Thread

    This was in turning conditions against an sla though (which is his weakness).

    **Official** 2nd Test @Adelaide, 6th-10th December

    This Indian side is actually better than the one that played at Gabba. The NZ series has no bearing on this. That series amplified India's weaknesses.

    Think will take a decision after the pink ball simulation.

    Rank India's test wins in Australia since 2000

    I think all the others can be 2 depending on your logic, that's how good the wins are. Not a dead rubber amongst them.
