The "luck" part of any sport is based entirely on how skilful the players are because being good increases the chances of good things happening for you.
Depends entirely on the time frame. The longer the time (larger the sample) the more likely what is perceived as "luck" is actually skill. But it definitely still happens. Look at Marnus, he had 3 or 4 years of averaging ~60 in Test cricket and he was never that good. Playing on a lot of roads and getting dropped constantly is definitely luck more than it's skill

Now that Webster's in the squad I just want him to play as he's one of the few in form batters in the squad. His bowling also means we hopefully never have to see Labuschagne's medium pacers again

4 changes-
Rohit, Gill, Jadeja, Akash in place of Padikkal, Jurel, Sundar, Harshit.


I would love to see Rahul bat at 3 and Gill at 5 or Rahul as opener and Rohit at 5. But neither option is likely.

I thought Gill was already ruled out of 2nd Test?

Edit: scratch that, 2 days ago it was reported he was out, now it seems he's back in the nets in Canberra before the PM XI game
