*Official* Australia in India 2023

[TheJediBrah]

Bitch please.

You'll have to come up with a better excuse than that to trump our excuse

I didn't realise you guys were in on the game

 

[Sunil1z]

We don’t need to make excuse . This is how combined Team should look for Indian condition

Rohit
Khwaja
Labu
Smith
Iyer
Carey or Kishan
Ashwin
Axar
Bumrah
Cummins

We have more than fighting chance .

 

[OverratedSanity]

Rohit will probably tear his stomach muscle on a pull shot in the first test and rule himself out for the rest of the series, the fat ****.

Is it still Rahul who's opening the batting with him? Very dodgy opening partnership tbh. We somehow need Pujara to turn back into 2017 Pujara, he along with Jadeja have been the two main men against Australia over the last decade.

 

[Burgey]

Rohit just needs to keep hitting pull shots down backward square let’s throat tbh. Incredible how often he still does it for a bloke who’s improved so much

It’s the second spinner which is the bowling problem for Aus. Would think two quicks plus Green could do enough to bowl tight but the likely lack of support for Lyon is telling. Someone needs to step up to SOK level from the last tour

Oh my god it ****s me how commentators won't shut up about how good Rohit is on the pull and Kohli on the coverdrive despite the fact that they get out playing that shot probably more than any other.

Also Mandatory Viewing for Indian Team before first Test in case they feel slightly less confident: TOP GUN MAVERICK 2022 ?

Team so elite it only needed 10 players.

Put Green there or Kuldeep Yadav depending upon your need.

Odds on Anna to score more than Kohli this series?

 

[honestbharani]

Anna's YT channel will be a hit, as long as we win. So Anna will ensure performance is upto the mark.

 

[Spark]

One of the biggest intangible things with losing Pant is how he’d likely affect Lyon’s confidence

Lyon having a competent keeper this time around certainly doesn't hurt though

Who was there in 2017?

 

[Spark]

Who was there in 2017?

Wade, but with respect to Pant I'm thinking of how Paine kept missing chances off Pant in 2021

Paine was awful that series with the gloves

 

[honestbharani]

Paine was awful that series with the gloves

I remember him being awful in Sydney but dont think he was too bad before that? Also he was a big reason for a lot of your runs that series.

How’s green in the slips to spinners? Against quicks he’s phenomenal at gully.

Can't see him displacing Smith or Warner in there any time soon despite Smith's problems in Pakistan

 

[honestbharani]

He will be great in the deep when the spinners are being attacked, I think.

So when our lower order is batting basically
