Going to be interesting for sure.

Big changes coming.

Rohit

Is anyone in the BCCI game enough to tap King Kohli on the shoulder and say times up ?

Jaddu might go as well.

Changing of the guard , some exciting talent coming through

Rough for India with a mid year tour to England... Can imagine Kohli gets knicked off over there as well.

Do you pull the trigger now? Or get through England then do it?

Kohli just got a 100 a couple of games back and he’s too big a player to get dropped. He would be allowed to exit on his own terms I feel.

True that

Last 5 years he has averaged 31.26 (64 Innings)

Love King Kohli but time to go.

Sounds like Rohit might be gone

Kohli career average is 33.21 (33 Innings) in England , can't see that improving

This test has danger game written all over it. Aussies coming off the high of Melbourne. India seemingly in disarray. Nekminit Aussies win the toss and bat and are 6/70 at lunch. Bumrah isn’t going anywhere.

Ha ha. No news yet mate. Mostly Rohit might be benched for the Sydney test. As an outside chance, if we get to Lord’s, that could be his final test. Let’s see.

@Herbie66 .. news coming in that Rohit opting out of 5th test. Bumrah to lead. Gill back at 3 and KL back to opening.

Tough call to make but I think it's the right call for India

Yeah. Totally. Good for the team. This article pretty much confirms the story.

He's getting out the same way every game... it can't continue.

I have also opted out of the Sydney Test.

Rashid Khan playing the 2nd Test v Zimbabwe (missed the 1st Test due to a charity event in the Netherlands)

Last test he played was March 2021 , doubt he has played any red ball cricket since then , interesting to see how he goes

Taskin Ahmed grabs 7 for 19 for Durbar Rajshahi, a new BPL record https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/...-for-durbar-rajshahi-a-new-bpl-record-1467485

 

[Herbie66]

Bumrah elects to bat first

Gill & Prasidh are the ins

 

[Herbie66]

Was just looking at some possible names for the CA XI games v the Lions

Don't know anything about Lovell

Hoping they pick the likes of Clayton , Handscomb , Hunt , Goodwin , Kelleway (?) , Lovell , Ward , Wyllie

Chance to give Rocchiccioli some cricket.

If the Strikers are not going to pick Buckingham give him a few games.

The fact Handscomb is even in the conversation for the test team makes me ill.

Extremely high chance he will be playing in Galle if the plan of Head opening is true.

Could be the CA XI captain for the upcoming games against the Lions.

Not sure Connolly is Test ready (yet) but he is the one I would take a punt on in Sri Lanka

Apparently he can play spin?

Apparently no one else in Australia can play spin...
