Washington Sundar and T Natarajan are making their Test debuts.

Yeah, I just saw them being given the caps. Not a fan of these two decisions.

I really feel for Shardul and I like Nattu a lot.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Shardul is playing. I like this team, 4 quicks and a spinner. Preferring Sundar over Kuldeep is a decision to be questioned, but hopefully Sundar can bat well.

Yeah, I just saw them being given the caps.

That is a huge moment in the life of a young cricketer. I saw same with Cam Green and Will Pucovski. Very moving.

No Ashwin. Big loss. He has been in best Australia form I can remember.

Give me some info on Sundar?

 

[LiveLoveABD]

Not a fan of this Sundar selection. 4 quicks! Wow!

Kuldeep Yadav has gone from the leading test spinner to a tourist.

 

[RichieBGM]

Marcus Harris, Mitchell Starc,

Weak links.

 

[Aalay]

Nothing has gone our way this tour with injuries and even toss. I really would have liked to see Kuldeep play but I guess they had to play Sundar considering they wanted to play 4 fast bowlers.

A total of 4 test matches between our bowling attack. That's amazing! Hopefully, the boys will show the same fight they have shown throughout this series.

 

[LiveLoveABD]

Toss to Australia. Big big advantage. Yet more adversity for the India side.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Away goes Warner.

 

[Aalay]

Good start by Siraj as usual. Time for Natu to join the action.

 

[RichieBGM]

Gabba has a tinge of green on it so the Indian quicks may get some early movement.

Warner goes cheaply again.. no foot movement. How much longer will his career last.

Labuchagne may as well have been picked to open as he has virtually opened from #3 in every match.

 

[RichieBGM]

4 quicks! Wow!

You can only afford that because Pant bats #6.. which baffles me given his loose technique. He is a hitter.

 

[RichieBGM]

Labs looks the more comfortable against the new ball over Harris.

Harris gone meekly and weakly. Time for a pair of new openers for the future.

Up to Smithy and Labs to once again steady the ship.
