Binny ahead of Mishra sums it up for me. All the talk about 5-bowlers and aggression is crap. All Binny does is add some meat to the batting/bowling on paper which in reality accounts to nothing. If they felt there was more in it for pace, Yadav should`ve played ahead of Bunny. I feel bad for the guy. He was terrific in the 2nd innings at Mohali and was unlucky to not get wickets. He was getting a lot of reverse swing at pace. If the test match goes into reverse-swing territory he would`ve been a handful. Ishant still does`nt inspire any confidence, especially at home. He keeps bowling that length that is more suited to Australia/SA and does`nt have the pace in the air.
I hope we play three genuine seamers and 2 spinners at some point in this series. We could`ve done it here in these conditions when we are 1-0 up, and we pick Bunny. Jadeja is`nt going to play a huge role on this first day wicket. It has to be Ashwin and the seamers to pick the wickets.
