Were you having a laugh while writing these names ? ?Rashid Khan,Mehidy, perhaps Abrar and Jayasuriya are just as good.
And the new improved Ish Sodhi - averages 25 with the ball in the last 4 yearsWere you having a laugh while writing these names ? ?
Playing for Asian teams would require him to be the lead bowler- and play attacking as well as defensive roles and sometimes doing it solo none of which he has shown throughout his career (exceptions may be there vs lesser teams). Not his fault, he is a perfect bowler for Aus team especially in their home conditions.Again you are massively under- rating him . He is a very good bowler whose figures aren’t that good because he plays for Aus . If he was Asian bowler , he would be averaging 27-28 .
Sorry Sunil1z.With Australia struggling to score 200 even once in the first 2 Tests and India getting bowled out for 36 in the 1st Test, it made sense to flatten the pitches, especially after India's win in the 2nd Test.
If Australia could rack up big scores like they normally do, India could fall under pressure and against a quality pace attack. It almost worked in the 3rd Test.
yeah this is the correct takeSorry was a bit all over the place there
I still am definitely backing Lyon though. Needs to do better than he did in Nagpur, but the idea of dropping him (for Ashton bloody Agar of all people especially) is utterly insane. India have mostly had his measure the last few times but to talk about him being finished completely is somewhere between hyperbole and lunacy
Indore - play IK, Surya Kumar, Gill & see the first ever 2k in a FC game ?3rd Dharamshala test likely to shift to
Vishakhapatnum
Or
Pune
Or
Indore
or
Rajkot****
BCCI likely to inspects before final dicision will be taken.Renovation not yet done completely
Wouldn't even remotely consider a change for the Ashes, not in the slightest. No worse place to rely on someone so inexperienced than England without a doubtYeah Lyon isn't getting dropped for anyone in this series. If he keeps getting outbowled by Murphy then it'll be interesting to see what happens in a few months, though.
Aussie curators don't get asked to prepare wickets a certain way.News of Bumrah not playing Gabba Test came on 12th Jan
Gabba Test started on 15 th Jan .
I doubt you can change the nature of pitch in 4 days . My fantasy is more correct .
After 2nd Test Aussie curators were asked to make the pitch flat because of fragile Aussie batting line up .
The Melbourne pitch wasn't quick either.
I guess the weather played a big part in how the pitches ended up behaving.Sorry Sunil1z.
Well the first test was D/N at Adelaide which you'd gamble to return low scores. Given the injuries India had it would've made sense for us to deliver bouncy pitches.
I don’t want to talk about pitch anymore. But I would say you one thing:Aussie curators don't get asked to prepare wickets a certain way.
You're projecting.
If Swepson’s return was planned then wtf was he picked in the first place?WTAF. I just can't with this ****.
Maybe it's the start of an epic comeback like it was for India with Kohli running homeWTAF. I just can't with this ****.
