If you told Natarajan in January last year that he'd have an amazing IPL season and then go on to be selected for India and play an ODI, have 3 amazing T20is and then grab a test debut to boot, he'd slap you in the face and tell you to keep dreaming.
So badly wants India to win. But, I equally hope none of us talk later about key players missing as an excuse if India fails to win, as the Aussies did in 2018 for just their two players missing. We are already so proud of their spirit.
The Aussie squad in the Sydney test even with all their players playing struggled to beat India without Kohli, Shami, Ishant, Rahul and injured Jadeja, Pant, Vihari. If Australia don't win the Gabba test they should be ashamed they couldn't beat an India A side in Australia. As for India this is probably the weakest team that is touring Australia so we can have excuses even if we lose compared to Australia who only lost Smith and Warner in 2017-18. On top of that Aussie players are the worst when it comes to playing cricket with the right spirit so nobody in India is proud of their spirit. Actually we should be proud of how this second string Indian side is making a strong Australian side struggle in their own conditions.
I think the key thing is that we shouldn't blame them if they can't win or if they lose. They are handicapped by losing players that could basically make a whole new pretty good side on their own.
Exactly..I am proud of the way this team played throughout this series..apart from the horrendous collapse which no one expected in Adelaide..and we should appreciate the team of bouncing back and not be disrespectful if they fail in Brisbane..We also should not give the lame excuses even though 7-8 players got injured..that gives opportunities for others to step up the game.
Indian team is depleted on paper, suffering many injuries, Gabba record of Aus against them. The only advantage India has is blessing of 1.3 Billion people, momentum, passion of the players to win for the country. Good luck 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

@@garunack4664 I think Aus will again make one more documentary 😂 on Again losing the bg trophy by 1-1 or 2-1 against India if India manages draw at Gabba or a win. This is against losing to India A side 😂❤️ Frustrating Aus
I think India's best chance is to bat first and score 450. Last time India played at the Gabba, they made 405 in the first innings. They just crumbled in the second innings. I think India should look to bat big if they get a chance to bat first.
Bang on! That's indeed the only way India can win this match. Scoreboard pressure is the only way to take Aussie wickets with this highly inexperienced bowling lineup.
Well nowadays India never play game of 350+ scores. Culture has been changed in terms of india cricket specially in overseas. So India just need to bat better than Australia in one inning . Either first inning or second. India will be on top
@@siddharthadubey2395 That has more to do with the fact that Indian batsmen haven't produced those big hundreds consistently that can get a team to 350+. It has happened a few times, like at the SCG in 2019 when Pujara and Pant scored hundreds. Happened at the MCG in 2018 when Pujara scored a hundred and Kohli and Rohit scored half centuries. So it doesn't really have much to do with culture as much to do with batting consistency. India have 3 batsmen in Rohit, Pujara, and Rahane who have the ability to make the hundreds and guys like Pant and Gill have the ability to counterattack. Now whether they can produce that consistently is another thing to be seen.
@@siddharthadubey2395 well you can't just be better in 1 innings as a batting unit in a test match to guarantee yourself a win. The Adelaide test is a bitter reminder of that.
Whn will he recover from his injuries , there is no clear update on his fitness , he plays one match n gets injured. I also wanted to see him in squad but he needs to be fit
True. Do you remember the test we won in South Africa last time. India played five man pace attack with Bhuvi, Shami, Sharma, Bumrah, Hardik. I remember how important rule he played that series.
All i will say is Aus should be mortified and embarrassed if they don't win this test comprehensively. NO VIRAT, NO JADEJA, NONE OF THE 5 SENIOR TEST PACERS. Inexperienced bowling attack. Multiple debutants. Ashwin in doubt. India playing with possibly 5-6 threatening batsmen. What more could an opposition camp wish for. I'm not saying India will lose. But I am saying India has their backs against the wall and if Aus can't beat this C team, they should be ashamed and embarrassed of themselves.
India won 2-1 in 2018 Aussies - No Warner and Smith 😩 India 2021- No Virat, Shami, Ishant, Jadeja, Umesh, Bhuvi, Rahul, Bumrah, Vihari Indians - So what? Hold our bench! 😎
Many Shameless Indians told that we won in 2018 due to absence of Warner Smith But we guys have put up a bigger fight despite missing almost 8 - 9 players due to injuries Even before d tour started many were saying be ready for 10-0, now those shameless ppl r hiding 😁
@@andydufresne4513 yup... In 2018 test series India had totally dominated aussies specially in last 2 test we had given them follow on... And declare innings at 447 and 622....starc,Hazlewood, lyon cummins all were there... These haters just need a excuse to defame Indian team... I wonder if aus can win even a 1 test with their full strength team
Smith and Warner and Labuschagne are the 3 major batsmen for Australia. And none were there in 2018. But this time India still have their main batsmen Rohit, Rahane, Pujara. Only Kohli is absent. So it is a genuine excuse that Australia lost in 2018 because of the absence of the 2.
I know most people here do not agree with me, but yet I will state what I have believed from day one. Shastri does not get due credit for his role in these Indian players performances. Shastri is the most Positive , focused and Very Bullheaded person for giving your 100% on the field and taking the fight to the opposition, even from his playing days. He is the right person in charge of the Indian Team in these Australian conditions (sledging, Abuse, Bullying, Cheating, home umpires, Australian Media) . The reason Kohli wants Shastri as a coach is because both are same when it comes to tackling the Opposition. They never want to give an inch to the oppposition. Shastri is Mentally very strong when it comes to clear thinking for the good of Indian Team. Thank you Shastri Ji. I have admired you from the start of your career. Jai Hind
Hat's off to Indian team's grit & determination! They had a nasty opposition indulging in sledging & body line bowling. But like wounded soldiers they carried on ....higher and stronger !!! Best so far, by an Indian team. Kudos !!
It is really amazing that all Australian bowlers starc, hazelwood, cummins all are very tall, bowling so many overs, fielding with diving effort with full commitment consistently and still not getting injured
they have great athletic qualities unlike our bowlers though Bumrah is fit but his unusual action takes a heavy toll on his body and others (who can bowl 140+)are just not fit
Fantastic series. Regardless of what happens at Brisbane, it has been a privilege watching these two teams play. I can say the same about listening to you two as well. What a treat this was during one of most trying times the world has ever seen.
The most ironical thing is, even though India is terribly worn out by a pile of injuries and a captain who's serving his wife back here in India, the onus is actually on the Australian team to win. We have nothing to lose, we've already proven whatever there was to prove. We're pretty much the underdogs going into the fourth test, considering Australia's record at the Gabba. So the stakes are actually high for Australia to pull out the obvious and win the game. That's the biggest advantage India have, going into the 4th test,apart from the confidence boost with the draw in the 3rd test.
Hats off to the their team spirit and never give up attitude !!! It's the fans duty to cheer them louder support them when they need it, Indian fans biggest concern right now There aren't many fit players left in the squad ,list is getting bigger and bigger so playing the Brisbane test and winning it could be the biggest challenge for Indian team with lot of pressure on remaining players don't know how they will be able to manage that India don't give up till end hope toh hai 🙂 hum jeetenge
What an opportunity for Rahane to become an Indian Cricket Legend with Brisbane game win. If he can actually lead from the front and get India over the finish line with a win over the mighty Aussies down under, this story would never be forgotten in the history of Indian Cricket.
Top4 batters wants to given 100+100% effort for the Gabba Test... In the absence of Bumrah,Vihari and Jadeja the batsman also Ash is 100% not fit though he will play....
As long as we don't capitulate like in Adelaide or lose like an innings I will be very happy and proud of this team. It will show a lot of character and self belief to us.
No comparison needed if virat was there we could have been favourites. Virat deserves a lot of credit to build such a great team n jinx also doing it we r lucky to have 2 such leaders
@@vedika6260 Actually Virat's presence makes everybody some what relaxed rather than attentive. The team is more conscious than usual because they know Kohli is not with them at the moment.
@@stelrex7293 I am simply talking about the fact that he can bat and he is there in the team not solely for the purpose of keeping and he needs to be given a shot
@cool Knight no he should be wk batsman because he is equally good in wicket keeping. Pant should be specialist batsman because he is not good in wicket keeping
If India wins the Gabba test this series will be written in golden words in the history of cricket world... Reasons in my opinion are: 1. Main players missing 2. A lot of injuries 3. Even the players available have little or no experience in test cricket before. 4. Full fledged Australian side 5. Hard quarantine times 6. Indian players away from home and family for almost 6 months 7. Great fight , resilience and strong comeback after bundling out for 36 in first test. 8. Chance for glorifying their last series win against Australia in Australia cuz Australian team and fans call it a good luck for India as some key players of Australia were also missing in that series but India is going through much more worse situation than that. 9.Some players even sacrificed main events of their family..( Umesh missing birth of his child as well as Natarajan did. Siraj missing his father's funeral) 10. Predictions for series like 4-0 by Michael Bevan before series and so on. 11. Last but not the least, the record of Indian team or any other touring team in the Gabba which in winning case for India will be a story to remember for decades.
🟡For them who want to see Natrajan to play: 🟡Players who are hardworking for many years in first-class & domestic we did not want them, we go only after ipl. Ipl can be a parameter for t20 (where you have to bowl only 4 overs in total )not test where you have to bowl 10-13 overs spell continuously with touching 140+ constantly.
Exactly....... Actually more than 10 - 13 for sure.......Natrajjan got variation but lack in pace n consistence........I has to improve his fitness to get into white jersey
Even though I like natarajan you're 100%right there are so many player performing for years and not getting any recognition and even I think India should use natrajan only in white ball format
Natarajan played 20 matches and has 64 scalps...he is selected because he was in as net bowler and since bcci can't send much better replacement due to 14 quarantine he. n kartik tyagi are only left choice so it's nothing due to his ipl he will play test ..be more logical
Gabba is a fast wicket..the fast bowlers get lot of assistance early on... Natrajan does have variations but no speed... Shardul should be preferred over him just for the extra pace he can generate..
@@sandipuk2010 Nattu has played only 20 test and has only 64 wickets in his FC career, and out of those he has got 3 five-fas! That man also bowls a stump to stump line to confuse the players; he is that consistent! Shardul, as you said, can be used for the pace and his respectable batting, but Nattu+Shardul+Saini+Kuldeep = Gabba Victory if Ash isn't fit?
@@srivathsansanthanam8906 Siraj will play ..Ashwin will play only if fit so Kuldeep gets in his place ...I'll be tempted to play Nattu but Shardul slightly better on experience and batting ability
@@sandipuk2010 But then we need at most two spinners for our team so that their shares can be split to reduce the pressure. So there will be 3 pacers + 2 spinners, but I doubt that India might go with a strong batting lineup as Gabba is such flat that the team batting first can make an impact in the second innings too...
There is NOOOOO key players or star players in indian cricket, If you make teams based on real talent(not using politics) in india you will get each state or even district will have better players than so called media hyped current KEYYY players. Given a chance see how each new player playing.It's a matter to identify the resources and given opportunities.
playing nattu will be a big gamble due to lack of first class experience and we all know test cricket is a different game all together. Yes he has immense talent him but test requires much more than and i am sure with a bit more of first class experience he will be a force to reckon with
Gabba is a fast wicket..the fast bowlers get lot of assistance early on... Natrajan does have variations but no speed... Shardul should be preferred over him just for the extra pace he can generate..
@@sandipuk2010 I think the question is not about who can bowl pace or not. It's more of who can be more consistent for whole 5 days without breaking down. A left arm X factor or traditional dependable swing bowler. Tough to make a call.!!!
India should go with 5 bowlers especially since this bowling attack is inexperienced. Going with 4 bowlers might end up bowlers not picking up wickets and then having to bowl long spells. And in the event Ashwin is fit enough to play this match, you can't expect him to bowl long spells with a dodgy back. Also if I was India's batting coach, I'd spend a long time with Saini, Siraj and Thakur and try and get their batting up to speed. I don't know if India can improve on their catching in such short time. Playing XI: Rohit, Gill, Pujara, Agarwal, Rahane, Pant, Ashwin, Thakur, Saini, Siraj, Natarajan
Just one more thing saha should be there ,when your bowling is weak you need best fiielders to make them look strong,and pant should only focus on batting his innings will be deciding
This series was always gonna be which side can out bowl each other as that’s their strength! That strength has been totally stripped off the Indian side due to injuries. Batting wise, I dont worry as much about the injured but with the top bowlers out, it’s an Indian A side playing against Australia top XI! India is surely the biggest underdog in this match !
Shardul gonna play for sure given his ability to swing the ball and with the bat Love for T. Natarajan not easy to stay for months away just as a net bowler but surely he is way ahead in the white ball line up
I think tim Paine should be removed from captaincy, pat Cummins can become a good captain and Travis head or Peter handscomb should play in place of useless tim Paine.
Same like Natrajan even Siraj is having a dream run in this Australia series who knows he might be the leader of the bowling pack in the Brisbane test .
Why is no one talking about thakur, he's so underrated, who took u to the super over against kiwis?!? Plus this match is gonna be like his test debut, coz he's playing after 3 years...
@@kevilsolanki645 only 3 are experienced Pujara , Rahane and Rohit. Rest you see it's an India A side and not played still that many matches. Virat , Shami , Ishant , Bhuvi , bumrah were experienced , so that will make a huge impact on Gabba test. Huge opportunity for our youngsters to perform well like gill , pant , siraj , Saini , shardul maybe , Kuldeep maybe.
@@cricketbulletin100 btw my favourite youngsters of this series have been siraj and gill. I knew gill was good even before but didn't thought siraj doing well too. I thought siraj is very bad. I often tell people to not to look at ipl performances but in this case I took his ipl performance in to account and he proved everyone wrong who was telling that he is a bad bowler
Skill wise obviously Australia is way better than india, but there is something about india this time, mentally srong probably stronger than Aussies at times...
No, from 2010 patterns has changed now india is way more ahead than australia but india is weak to play in overseas and is weak to play against australia in australia
If india managed to win, it would definitely be the greatest test win for india in this century (if not of all time) Praying for atleast a draw, if possible a win

@TheKiiran22 : Yep, you said it. There is a high chance that the Aussie batsmen might slaughter them. If they could restrict Aussies within 350-400, they did well. If they can do better, that will be history.
Now Bumrah, Jadeja, Vihari gone.... Rishav, Ashwin, Mayank doubtful....Bench is getting exhausted so fast..... Ufffff.... How long a team will show character, resilience and fight?? There is a limit to everything. Fingers crossed... Our best wishes to this lion hearted team. Keep going 👍❤️✌️
My 11 in order. Rohit, Shubhman, Pujara, Rahane, Pant, Mayank or Shaw (whoever is fit), Saha (wkt), Washington Sundar (if Ashwin is unfit), Shardul Thakur, Siraj, Natarajan.
True. It’s a tough choice but Saini has not been so successful so far across limited overs and tests. Natarajan on the other hand caused troubles for Australian batsman during limited overs. An option purely based on X factor.
Yes tough choice to balance the team. But best chance for India is to score big, hence batsmen heavy side. Alternatively if Ashwin is fit to play then play Washington as all rounder instead of Mayank or Shaw.
Harsha missed one point, the expectations of Indian fans is back to normal but even if India loses, we won't be mad at them, but we'll be proud of their spirit
Mayank (if fit or shaw has to play for him) Rohit Sharma Cheteshwar Pujara Ajinkya Rahane Shubman Gill Rishab pant Wriddiman Saha Ashwin Shardul Siraj Natarajan .
@@nikunjdixit1175 How could he be a part of the team when he's just been injured throughout? If you remember, he played in Joburg in 18, was selected for eng tests but got injured and since then he's been mostly injured. He is India's top 6 bowlers in test.
@@ritskumar8053 but problem is that he will fit for play in ipl evry year then got injured for international matches . How come someone like calibre of Bhuvi is so irresponsible
If India wins this test match I gonna post at least 1 video each day for 1 month at least. No matter how hard it gets after a toiling hard day in office, I gonna do that.
Even if India losses. We are still happy the way they perform the entire tour. Losing ODI but comeback on T20 and giving a tough fight to Aussies in the test. Even missing some big names. We are proud of the Team 🇮🇳. You won us ❤️.
Expecting Gabba to be bouncy but still good to bat, Expecting Australian seam bowlers have upper hand straight away and we need a strong batting to tackle them and put decent runs on board, Expecting a 4 inexperienced pace bowlers won't make much difference compared to 3 inexperienced pace bowlers, my eleven ordered by batting position is, Gill Rohit (VC) Pujara Prithvi Rahane (C) Pant Mayank Ashwin Siraj Saini Shardul/Natrajan (My heart says 49% for Shardul and 51% for Natrajan) With this inexperienced bowling attack, having a left arm X factor would be huge but if he didn't click or broke down it might be a disaster. Natrajan for brave play. Shardul if you want safe play) In a test no matter how much you score one has to take 20 wickets to win a test match. A batting heavy India can look to avoid that. We want to win/draw this so badly.!!!!!
@@vaibhavraj9505 If he can be fit enough to be selected as a batsman, he can very much keep as well. If he feels too much pain, we always have the reliable Saha at our disposal. It won't be ethical for sure, but our injury list is something quite extraordinary.
Assuming that Ashwin and Mayank don't play, here's my XI: Rohit Gill Pujara Rahane Pant(w/k) Shaw Shardul Kuldeep Natarajan Saini Siraj I think we'll need the extra bowling more than the extra batting because of the inexperience.
We all should keep in mind the character, motivation, culture, emotions that Ajinkya Rahane is bringing in this team. That never give up attitude is what might win Brisbane test & series or atleast retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy
We Don't Have Bumrah Now Let Us Go With 4 Pace Options along With Sundar(Plays the Role Of 7th Batsman and as a Spinner) And 6 Specialist Batsmen And Comeon Gabba Doesn't Offers any Turn and Kuldeep's Recent Form is Not Good
I want to see the praise for "Ajinkya Rahane" as captain and leader he has done the miracle no one can ever imagine. When people praise virat and other but he is so underrated as a leader he will always be with his teammates no matter how Rahane the champions
No doubt about his bowling skills but Kuldeep and 3 pace bowlers will be a long tale.India are short of batsman now so they don’t want a big tale now . What India can do now Siraj and Ashwin ‘s place in the side is confirmed if they are fit and ready to go .Saini can’t be dropped just after he has played his first match . I would like if Saini is dropped from team and shardul and Natarajan play . But now it is the case of either shardul Thakur or Natarajan will play . It is wise to take a wicket taking bowler rather than a quicker or more bouncier bowler . So I think Natarajan should play . It would more better if shardul plays ahead of Saini .(which I don’t think will happen. .... .. . If India will go with Siraj ,Saini and shardul ;Australia might score 600 and India might start thinking of making a draw again.
@@ajithkarthikeyathota3874 What makes you think Natarjan is any more of a wicket taking bowler than Shardul. Shardul has significantly more experience and can swing and seam the ball. Natarjan has a good yorker, but that doesn't exactly matter much in test cricket.
Aus has amazing record at all home venues, not just the Gabba. In last 10 years, Aus has only lost 4 tests at home (at top 4 venues: SCG, MCG, Adelaide, Gabba), 3 of which against India. So you take out India wins, and all grounds look like a fortress. It's just that India hasnt played much at the Gabba in recent years (only 1 test in last 10 years). The Gabba is definitely a fortress but so are other home venues (when you take India out of equation). So if India has managed to win at other fortress in Aus, the Gabba is just another one to conquer.
If you told Natarajan in January last year that he'd have an amazing IPL season and then go on to be selected for India and play an ODI, have 3 amazing T20is and then grab a test debut to boot, he'd slap you in the face and tell you to keep dreaming.

I wonder if aus can win even a 1 test with their full strength team
Smith and Warner and Labuschagne are the 3 major batsmen for Australia. And none were there in 2018. But this time India still have their main batsmen Rohit, Rahane, Pujara. Only Kohli is absent. So it is a genuine excuse that Australia lost in 2018 because of the absence of the 2.
I know most people here do not agree with me, but yet I will state what I have believed from day one. Shastri does not get due credit for his role in these Indian players performances. Shastri is the most Positive , focused and Very Bullheaded person for giving your 100% on the field and taking the fight to the opposition, even from his playing days. He is the right person in charge of the Indian Team in these Australian conditions (sledging, Abuse, Bullying, Cheating, home umpires, Australian Media) . The reason Kohli wants Shastri as a coach is because both are same when it comes to tackling the Opposition. They never want to give an inch to the oppposition. Shastri is Mentally very strong when it comes to clear thinking for the good of Indian Team. Thank you Shastri Ji. I have admired you from the start of your career. Jai Hind
Imagine if we win this, this will almost be a dream test series
India will win just becaz of no umesh and no kohli .All of a sudden its become 11 players team than one or none.
@@commanman1708 ..It just gives goosebumps that indian team known by all eleven players not by only one or two players.

It is really amazing that all Australian bowlers starc, hazelwood, cummins all are very tall, bowling so many overs, fielding with diving effort with full commitment consistently and still not getting injured
they have great athletic qualities unlike our bowlers
though Bumrah is fit but his unusual action takes a heavy toll on his body
and others (who can bowl 140+)are just not fit
@@shadowranger525 India's most athletic bowler currently is umesh Yadav but his fielding is mediocre
@@Sathish_12 well only good fielder among indian bowlers is bhuvi rest all are not very good in fielding.
One of the best in the world jadega
its about culture australia is a sporting country every child almost plays all games not like india where only one game
Fantastic series. Regardless of what happens at Brisbane, it has been a privilege watching these two teams play. I can say the same about listening to you two as well. What a treat this was during one of most trying times the world has ever seen.
The most ironical thing is, even though India is terribly worn out by a pile of injuries and a captain who's serving his wife back here in India, the onus is actually on the Australian team to win. We have nothing to lose, we've already proven whatever there was to prove. We're pretty much the underdogs going into the fourth test, considering Australia's record at the Gabba. So the stakes are actually high for Australia to pull out the obvious and win the game. That's the biggest advantage India have, going into the 4th test,apart from the confidence boost with the draw in the 3rd test.
3:26 The line gave me goosebumps !
Hats off to the their team spirit and never give up attitude !!! It's the fans duty to cheer them louder support them when they need it, Indian fans biggest concern right now
There aren't many fit players left in the squad ,list is getting bigger and bigger so playing the Brisbane test and winning it could be the biggest challenge for Indian team with lot of pressure on remaining players don't know how they will be able to manage that India don't give up till end hope toh hai 🙂 hum jeetenge
Gabba Stats
Average 1st Inns scores 337
Average 2nd Inns scores 321
Average 3rd Inns scores 242
Average 4th Inns scores 163
Toss is crucial as ever.
LOL India chased and won
What an opportunity for Rahane to become an Indian Cricket Legend with
Brisbane game win. If he can actually lead from the front and get India
over the finish line with a win over the mighty Aussies down under, this
story would never be forgotten in the history of Indian Cricket.
Top4 batters wants to given 100+100% effort for the Gabba Test...
In the absence of Bumrah,Vihari and Jadeja the batsman also Ash is 100% not fit though he will play....
As long as we don't capitulate like in Adelaide or lose like an innings I will be very happy and proud of this team. It will show a lot of character and self belief to us.
The table will turn around if Ajinkya Rahane with injured team manage to win in the Gabba Test. Then it will be real comparison with Kohli🙏
No comparison needed if virat was there we could have been favourites. Virat deserves a lot of credit to build such a great team n jinx also doing it we r lucky to have 2 such leaders
Bhai comparison mt lao. Both are the best. And feel proud both are indians.
Don't u think coaches should also be appreciated
@@vedika6260 Actually Virat's presence makes everybody some what relaxed rather than attentive. The team is more conscious than usual because they know Kohli is not with them at the moment.
@@srinivask1003 thats why we lost 1st match....
I think Saha is not as bad of a batsman cuz we saw what he did in the limited chances he got in the ipl
Bro this is Test cricket not IPL.
@@stelrex7293 I am simply talking about the fact that he can bat and he is there in the team not solely for the purpose of keeping and he needs to be given a shot
True. I think Saha has to play his natural game. Just like Pant.
He can't handle Australian pace attack.
@cool Knight no he should be wk batsman because he is equally good in wicket keeping. Pant should be specialist batsman because he is not good in wicket keeping
I am going to wake up at 5 AM, to support my country, all positive thoughts😇.

If India wins the Gabba test this series will be written in golden words in the history of cricket world...
Reasons in my opinion are:
1. Main players missing
2. A lot of injuries
3. Even the players available have little or no experience in test cricket before.
4. Full fledged Australian side
5. Hard quarantine times
6. Indian players away from home and family for almost 6 months
7. Great fight , resilience and strong comeback after bundling out for 36 in first test.
8. Chance for glorifying their last series win against Australia in Australia cuz Australian team and fans call it a good luck for India as some key players of Australia were also missing in that series but India is going through much more worse situation than that.
9.Some players even sacrificed main events of their family..( Umesh missing birth of his child as well as Natarajan did. Siraj missing his father's funeral)
10. Predictions for series like 4-0 by Michael Bevan before series and so on.
11. Last but not the least, the record of Indian team or any other touring team in the Gabba which in winning case for India will be a story to remember for decades.
🟡For them who want to see Natrajan to play: 🟡Players who are hardworking for many years in first-class & domestic we did not want them, we go only after ipl. Ipl can be a parameter for t20 (where you have to bowl only 4 overs in total )not test where you have to bowl 10-13 overs spell continuously with touching 140+ constantly.
Not all 140+ bowlers are effective, it about having control over your line and length
Exactly....... Actually more than 10 - 13 for sure.......Natrajjan got variation but lack in pace n consistence........I has to improve his fitness to get into white jersey
have u guys seen his first class average
Even though I like natarajan you're 100%right there are so many player performing for years and not getting any recognition and even I think India should use natrajan only in white ball format
Natarajan played 20 matches and has 64 scalps...he is selected because he was in as net bowler and since bcci can't send much better replacement due to 14 quarantine he. n kartik tyagi are only left choice so it's nothing due to his ipl he will play test ..be more logical
Natarajan needs to play - his left arm speed will win the natch for India !
Gabba is a fast wicket..the fast bowlers get lot of assistance early on... Natrajan does have variations but no speed... Shardul should be preferred over him just for the extra pace he can generate..
@@sandipuk2010 Nattu has played only 20 test and has only 64 wickets in his FC career, and out of those he has got 3 five-fas! That man also bowls a stump to stump line to confuse the players; he is that consistent! Shardul, as you said, can be used for the pace and his respectable batting, but Nattu+Shardul+Saini+Kuldeep = Gabba Victory if Ash isn't fit?
@@srivathsansanthanam8906 Siraj?
@@srivathsansanthanam8906 Siraj will play ..Ashwin will play only if fit so Kuldeep gets in his place ...I'll be tempted to play Nattu but Shardul slightly better on experience and batting ability
@@sandipuk2010 But then we need at most two spinners for our team so that their shares can be split to reduce the pressure. So there will be 3 pacers + 2 spinners, but I doubt that India might go with a strong batting lineup as Gabba is such flat that the team batting first can make an impact in the second innings too...
I would specially congratulate Rahane and his team,7-8 key players are missing but still they are fighting like no.1team!
There is NOOOOO key players or star players in indian cricket, If you make teams based on real talent(not using politics) in india you will get each state or even district will have better players than so called media hyped current KEYYY players. Given a chance see how each new player playing.It's a matter to identify the resources and given opportunities.
India will be the winners......
playing nattu will be a big gamble due to lack of first class experience and we all know test cricket is a different game all together. Yes he has immense talent him but test requires much more than and i am sure with a bit more of first class experience he will be a force to reckon with
Saini ne kaunsa bada ukhada. His economy was 5 runs/over in the first innings
@Yuvraj Dharavath Saini has done well with red ball in domestic
Saini is there because of his pace. But it's still upto team combination what set of bowlers you want depending on the pitch.
Gabba is a fast wicket..the fast bowlers get lot of assistance early on... Natrajan does have variations but no speed... Shardul should be preferred over him just for the extra pace he can generate..
@@sandipuk2010 I think the question is not about who can bowl pace or not. It's more of who can be more consistent for whole 5 days without breaking down. A left arm X factor or traditional dependable swing bowler. Tough to make a call.!!!
Let me assume fourth test INDIA WIN and rest is HISTORY. Our soul will be celebrating this after 1000 Years

Dick is the short form of "richard" . You can come across many people named "dick" from england /USA....they are actually richard
Yeah that was excellent hahahaha
We all believe india can win yes we are going make history again 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
India should go with 5 bowlers especially since this bowling attack is inexperienced. Going with 4 bowlers might end up bowlers not picking up wickets and then having to bowl long spells. And in the event Ashwin is fit enough to play this match, you can't expect him to bowl long spells with a dodgy back. Also if I was India's batting coach, I'd spend a long time with Saini, Siraj and Thakur and try and get their batting up to speed. I don't know if India can improve on their catching in such short time. Playing XI: Rohit, Gill, Pujara, Agarwal, Rahane, Pant, Ashwin, Thakur, Saini, Siraj, Natarajan
Also since Ash and Shardul can bat that means India won't have so called long Tail....pinpoint bro
Super selection bro
Saha instead of Mayank would be my only change
And I think Saha should also come into the squad as a keeper, because that would decrease the load off rishab pant
Just one more thing saha should be there ,when your bowling is weak you need best fiielders to make them look strong,and pant should only focus on batting his innings will be deciding
This series was always gonna be which side can out bowl each other as that’s their strength! That strength has been totally stripped off the Indian side due to injuries. Batting wise, I dont worry as much about the injured but with the top bowlers out, it’s an Indian A side playing against Australia top XI!
India is surely the biggest underdog in this match !
Harsha with that roast of Paine 😂
With the confidence and morale India can win 4th test even with 10 man
Harsha sir your of the best commentators your huge fan
Look at how excited both Adam and Harsha are getting, feeling lucky to be in Brisbane right now!
Shardul gonna play for sure given his ability to swing the ball and with the bat
Love for T. Natarajan not easy to stay for months away just as a net bowler but surely he is way ahead in the white ball line up
Yes totally true
Hope India fights as they did in Sydney
Shardul bowls off cuter that's not swing
@@erwinsmith7951 no he has out swing bro
@@erwinsmith7951 totally agree but he does swing it too bro . It’s time for him to show that.

Tim paine is doing more and more over action.....
Catches are being dropped by him itself then how can the practice catches......
I think tim Paine should be removed from captaincy, pat Cummins can become a good captain and Travis head or Peter handscomb should play in place of useless tim Paine.
As an Aussie, I think he’s a good captain that had a pretty bad day out and he went a bit desperate

Huge opportunity for our youngsters to perform well like gill , pant , siraj , Saini , shardul maybe , Kuldeep maybe.
@@cricketbulletin100 btw my favourite youngsters of this series have been siraj and gill. I knew gill was good even before but didn't thought siraj doing well too. I thought siraj is very bad.

This is going to be a very interesting match...
Adam Collins and Harsha❤️❤️
India will win this brisbane 4th test match & thats enevitable
Wish we had a web series like The Test as Australia has for this particular tour
What an awesome stmt Harsha.."with a mind that's very powerful , but a body may not listen to him.."
Skill wise obviously Australia is way better than india, but there is something about india this time, mentally srong probably stronger than Aussies at times...
Indian team’s skillset is as good, if not better, as Aussies. It is just that Aus have home advantage right now.
No, from 2010 patterns has changed now india is way more ahead than australia but india is weak to play in overseas and is weak to play against australia in australia
Harsha Bhogle is just amazing ! What an understanding & analysis of the game :-)
Rohit or Pujara need to score big (150+) and India must bat first
If india managed to win, it would definitely be the greatest test win for india in this century (if not of all time)
Praying for atleast a draw, if possible a win
I feel like Rohit Sharma might like the bounce but I'm not sure because of how good the aussie bowlers are

Compare 1988 WI team Marshall, richards, ambrose, walsh, greenidge haynes. Who beat Australia
@TheKiiran22 : Yep, you said it. There is a high chance that the Aussie batsmen might slaughter them. If they could restrict Aussies within 350-400, they did well. If they can do better, that will be history.
Harsha sir ,lots of respect for you the way you had told story of rise of Gill & Siraj during 2nd test match.
Now Bumrah, Jadeja, Vihari gone.... Rishav, Ashwin, Mayank doubtful....Bench is getting exhausted so fast..... Ufffff.... How long a team will show character, resilience and fight?? There is a limit to everything. Fingers crossed... Our best wishes to this lion hearted team. Keep going 👍❤️✌️
A research will not be enough to describe this Indian team's mental toughness
Harsha seems to be in a special zone...great energy and tempo....he is so excited
My 11 in order. Rohit, Shubhman, Pujara, Rahane, Pant, Mayank or Shaw (whoever is fit), Saha (wkt), Washington Sundar (if Ashwin is unfit), Shardul Thakur, Siraj, Natarajan.
only 4 bowlers
Saini is good bowler with new ball in 1st class cricket He is must
True. It’s a tough choice but Saini has not been so successful so far across limited overs and tests. Natarajan on the other hand caused troubles for Australian batsman during limited overs. An option purely based on X factor.
Yes tough choice to balance the team. But best chance for India is to score big, hence batsmen heavy side. Alternatively if Ashwin is fit to play then play Washington as all rounder instead of Mayank or Shaw.
Second that.
Harsha and Adam have very good chemistry.. I come here mostly for their inserts. - love from South Africa
If someone asks me for the team I will go with 5 bowlers. India was on back foot at SCG 2innings because of four bowlers
Harsha missed one point, the expectations of Indian fans is back to normal but even if India loses, we won't be mad at them, but we'll be proud of their spirit

I feel our team is gonna come down very hard on Australia
Expecting Gabba to be bouncy but still good to bat,
Expecting Australian seam bowlers have upper hand straight away and we need a strong batting to tackle them and put decent runs on board,
Expecting a 4 inexperienced pace bowlers won't make much difference compared to 3 inexperienced pace bowlers,
my eleven ordered by batting position is,
Gill
Rohit (VC)
Pujara
Prithvi
Rahane (C)
Pant
Mayank
Ashwin
Siraj
Saini
Shardul/Natrajan (My heart says 49% for Shardul and 51% for Natrajan)
With this inexperienced bowling attack, having a left arm X factor would be huge but if he didn't click or broke down it might be a disaster. Natrajan for brave play. Shardul if you want safe play)
In a test no matter how much you score one has to take 20 wickets to win a test match. A batting heavy India can look to avoid that.
We want to win/draw this so badly.!!!!!
India's playing XI in my opinion should be:
1) Rohit Sharma
2) Shubhman Gill
3) Cheteshwar Pujara
4) Ajinkya Rahane
5) Mayank Agarwal
6) Rishabh Pant
7) Ravichandran Ashwin
8) Shardul Thakur
9) Navdeep Saini
10) Mohammad Siraj
11) T Natarajan
But is it possible for Pant to keep after that elbow injury?
@@vaibhavraj9505 If he can be fit enough to be selected as a batsman, he can very much keep as well. If he feels too much pain, we always have the reliable Saha at our disposal. It won't be ethical for sure, but our injury list is something quite extraordinary.
India has nothing to lose in Brisbane and everything to gain whereas Australia has very less to gain and much more to lose.

Shubham gill
Pujara

Mayank Agrawal/ prithiv Shaw
Sundar/ Saha
Ashwin/ kuldeep

Nah man ,no way sundar is playing.
sundar is not selected for tests
Ya right now he is not included but if Mayank Agrawal and Ashwin is not fit then he can include in squad
It's nothing to think about bowler or batsman whether senior or not but talent and pitch advantage and Toss will say the fate of Test match.
Story will be true, when Hitman smashes 200/300.😎
100 0r 150 will be enough
my take : Rohit, Shubnam, Jinx, Cheteshwar, Prithvi, Mayank, Rishabh, Siraj, Saini, Natarajan and Sardul. Go India go. Lets win hopefully
Assuming that Ashwin and Mayank don't play, here's my XI:
Rohit
Gill
Pujara
Rahane
Pant(w/k)
Shaw
Shardul
Kuldeep
Natarajan
Saini
Siraj
I think we'll need the extra bowling more than the extra batting because of the inexperience.
We all should keep in mind the character, motivation, culture, emotions that Ajinkya Rahane is bringing in this team. That never give up attitude is what might win Brisbane test & series or atleast retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy
Rohit
Gill
Pujara
Rahane
Pant

Here we are ✨✨ History has been made :')
We Don't Have Bumrah Now Let Us Go With 4 Pace Options along With Sundar(Plays the Role Of 7th Batsman and as a Spinner) And 6 Specialist Batsmen And Comeon Gabba Doesn't Offers any Turn and Kuldeep's Recent Form is Not Good
I want to see the praise for "Ajinkya Rahane" as captain and leader he has done the miracle no one can ever imagine. When people praise virat and other but he is so underrated as a leader he will always be with his teammates no matter how Rahane the champions
If india has to win @ Brisbane the trump card shall be kuldeep...Surely he should Play along with Ashwin
Good Point !!!
2 spinner won't help......more over Ashwin should rest for England tests as jaddu not available
You can't play 2 spinners at the gabba , it's a bouncy pitch with swing and seam too
No doubt about his bowling skills but Kuldeep and 3 pace bowlers will be a long tale.India are short of batsman now so they don’t want a big tale now .
What India can do now
Siraj and Ashwin ‘s place in the side is confirmed if they are fit and ready to go .Saini can’t be dropped just after he has played his first match .
I would like if Saini is dropped from team and shardul and Natarajan play .
But now it is the case of either shardul Thakur or Natarajan will play .
It is wise to take a wicket taking bowler rather than a quicker or more bouncier bowler .
So I think Natarajan should play .
It would more better if shardul plays ahead of Saini .(which I don’t think will happen.
....
..
.
If India will go with Siraj ,Saini and shardul ;Australia might score 600 and India might start thinking of making a draw again.
@@ajithkarthikeyathota3874 What makes you think Natarjan is any more of a wicket taking bowler than Shardul. Shardul has significantly more experience and can swing and seam the ball. Natarjan has a good yorker, but that doesn't exactly matter much in test cricket.
Aus has amazing record at all home venues, not just the Gabba.
In last 10 years, Aus has only lost 4 tests at home (at top 4 venues: SCG, MCG, Adelaide, Gabba), 3 of which against India.
So you take out India wins, and all grounds look like a fortress. It's just that India hasnt played much at the Gabba in recent years (only 1 test in last 10 years).
The Gabba is definitely a fortress but so are other home venues (when you take India out of equation). So if India has managed to win at other fortress in Aus, the Gabba is just another one to conquer.
