Ten Doeschate has been a myth for years. There has been precisely 0 overlap between his and De Kock's careers as serviceable cricketers. Especially RTD's bowling.

Oops, thought we were talking about ODIs, missed the part where you said Mohali.
Is Pandey still in the frame? Steady bowler imo.
Mohit hits the deck, tends to be on the shorter side and is a bit up and down imo, won't do too well I feel. Not sure if he gets any reverse either.
Bhuv, Pandey or Aaron for the 2nd seamer, really not fussed either way. Bhuvi is still accurate and not completely brain dead like Aaron so I'd lean towards him because we have enough inconsistency in Yadav as it is.

Picking someone who is going to bowl a total of 10 overs in the test doesn't warrant so much discussion. Anyways, almost all overs are going to be bowled by the spinners.

What has the Mohali pitch been like recently? Don't think it will be that spin friendly.

Pretty sure I read somewhere that there have been specific instructions to play up the home advantage and to negate their strengths (their quicks). The comment was made when the selectors announced the squad and were answering questions about Jadeja's inclusion.

Dhawan
Pujara
Kohli
Rahane
Saha
Jadeja
Ashwin
Mishra
Mohit/Bhuvi
Yadav
But obviously Rohit will be picked ahead of Pujara... Stings every time I think about it. And it's not like Che has been lighting up the Ranji either, a highest of 27 in 5 innings so far. Whereas Rohit gets the ODI glory.

Yea we're probably gonna see that lineup, except Rahane at 3 and Rohit at 5. Ashwin probably at 7, Jaddu 8 and Mishra 9.
Bhuvi needs some rest, and some Ranji/Net sessions. Yadav likely to start but don't have much faith in him ATM. Would like to see a Mohit debut; he's a better long-form bowler than short-form anyways.
Pankaj deserves a recall. Sigh.

Whatever it takes!!!
Dinda is worse than Agarkar. And by extension worse than Mohit, Yadav, Aaron or anyone else we can pick. And why is everyone so sure that Dhawan will be picked? I think there is a good chance that Pujara and Vijay will open with Nohit at 5 and Rahane at 3.

Will be interesting to see if Saha batting @ # 6 works in this series or long term for IND depending on how they balance the team. Looks a # 7 at best.

Who needs Stokes when we have Mr. Mayanti?

That'd be some line up. As much as I would love for Rohit to destroy Steyn, he doesn't deserve to be in the test team. Also from 6-10 that'd one hell of a lower middle order in Indian conditions especially.

Apt as Henry seems to be going the way of the Promising Indian Pace Bowler at the moment. /Bahnz.
Yeah but the competition we're talking about here is Berhardien...

Not above Ishant, he's well and truly our leader since start of 2014. Shammi's overrated as far as Im concerned, runs out of gas way to quickly for mine, Aaron is too raw, Umesh is a better bet in tests, in ODI's its more or less a toss up. Admittedly there is more competition for Indian test pacers atm, also in the SC you really only need 2 pacers, maybe 3 if the deck demands it. So essentially you have a case where it's Ishant>>Bhuvi>Shammi/Yadav>>Aaron.
