Australia A vs India A games

[Qlder]

Webster player of the match, well deserved. He's a better allrounder than I thought

 

[morgieb]

Webster should be front of mind for the Sri Lanka series, especially given he can bowl offies too.

 

[Test fan]

Need more batting, I'd play Jadeja rather than Harshit. He has very limited red ball experience and didn't play any IND A vs AUS A fixture. Our weak point is batting, I'll rather go with Jadeja and hope the 3 pacers + Washi, Jadeja take care of the bowling

No use of two spinner at Perth . jadeja and Washington are more of same type bowler but Washington is in his prime form while jadeja is past his prime. Dont forget Washington will get extra bounce due to his height.

Should play dhruv jurel as openner if rohit misses or atlest play insted of sarfraz

Deck chairs on the titanic though.

Just a disaster for India, these two A tour games. Nothing from the A side to suggest they can replace the hapless first XI.

^ well except for Jurel. He should be keeper and let Pant just bat with his dodgy knees

Its not Washi vs Jadeja. Playing Harshit who has so little FC experience, and didn't play in IND A vs AUS A games makes little sense to me. And, it leaves our batting massively weak. I'll rather play a batsman than Harshit.

Wouldn't call absolute disaster. Prasidh krishna has proved he is ready for tests. Think we would compete well unless ca gives turners

Australia Prime Minister XI squad named to play India before 2nd Test (30 Nov - 1 Dec)

Matt Renshaw is back after his Shield ton, while it seems weird that Boland is thrown in with the youngsters (I know it's just to give him a bowl as Test reserve)

Jack Edwards (capt), Charlie Anderson, Mahli Beardman, Scott Boland, Jack Clayton, Aidan O'Connor, Ollie Davies, Jayden Goodwin, Sam Harper, Hanno Jacobs, Sam Konstas, Lloyd Pope, Matthew Renshaw, Jem Ryan

Love that they've fielded a near shield standard batting lineup and just given India boland+random kids to prepare for a pink ball test. Good banter

Isn't that basically always what the PMs XI is like? A youth development Shield side at most unless the timing makes it a true A game.

Ohh obviously, I just find the contrast between batting and bowling funny, especially given what India would want out of a pink ball prep game.

Looking forward to seeing how the Prime Minister's XI top 4 batting does vs India this weekend (pity it's only a 2 dayer)

1. Renshaw
2. Konstas
3. Goodwin
4. Davies

Also hoping Sarfaraz gets a game

Wouldn't Jack Clayton probably bat ahead of Davies considering their respective Shield batting positions?


That being said Davies is likely closer to the Australian selectors thoughts (probably rightly, even though I do like Clayton as a player)


Also, on the subject of the PM's XI, love that Hanno Jacobs is getting a game. Think NSW could do a lot worse when it comes to potential future Shield bowlers

Hope akashdeep gets a go

Davies has moved up to 4 for NSW in last 3 games, so I put him above Clayton for that and the same reason you said

Will it be televised esp for viewers in india

Rumour is Day 1 of the PM XI game may be washed out tomorrow? Heavy rain predicted for Canberra
