Cummins is out injured won't be back for any tests.
 
Didnt know that about Cummins, then yeah your team for the bowlers.

I unsure about Khwaja, does he know how to hit the ball, his strike rate is crap

Don't be too worried about his strike rate it is a test match. He needs to improve his intensity out in the middle though. Needs to work singles and look to score more. He really needs a breakthrough innings.
 
7 runs off 50 balls is #### tho.

I like how he is composed but like you said just rotate the strike
 
Heals has written us off and Tubs reckon we'll do okay. hmmm Im with Heals on this one

Agree, but only slight changes, biggest one being absolutely no inclusion for Ponting or Hussey. Old men, time to go.

I am happy with that but TBH I'll be happy if they cut one of them because I don't think they'll cut either of them.
 
I don't think they'll cut any of the 3 that should go (Hussey, Haddin, Ponting).
 
I think it's interesting when you look at the Indian side that they have a lot of old blokes too. So why are ours choking and their's going great guns?

I reckon it would be easier to get out of a form slump on the tracks India produce. Plus Tendulkar has adjusted his game and Dravid is a very conservative player. Punter refuses to change his game and Hussey got through his rough patch but has found it again. To be fair the last 4 tests have been played on bowlers decks.

Like it mate. I honestly reckon that's the attack to take 20 wickets. Whether the top and middle order back it up with the bat remains to be seen.

You, and the other boys in this thread, are right though - the selectors won't have the balls to drop any of Ponting, Hussey or Haddin.
 
I am hoping Christian doesn't get picked, he is the Heats star recruit and they have already been robbed off their best talent due to injury.
