Mr. Bhogle, you are absolutely correct in assuming that the upcoming BGT tour will be a sort of transition for a lot of the older players. The series with NZ showed that. The team seemed tired and carrying the burden of WTC finals. Hoping to see a refreshed team to Australia.
Not to forget australia is starting this time in perth and after that a D/N in adelaide which will be super hard for india looking at current form of our players
Harsha Bhai. Don't you feel we will miss the tenacity of pujara and the cleverness of Rahane during aus tour? Rahane is an astute leader and he has proven himself and led from the front in that game in MCG that too when we were one down at Adelaide after getting bundled out for 36.
Yes Pant was the driver in 2021 test series win but the engine was Pujara and Rahane. India is missing their resilience this time and I think it will be the difference between 2021 and 2024.
Yesterday when i was at the MCA for the match,my friend and me talked what harsha said ,the 2011 team which was ageing , it's the same thing with this team next month.they will just hope that the tour ends really fast.
Whatever You do and how much You throw Your hands and legs in air , when You will play with us (Australia) , We will decimate You into so many pieces that You will not be able to find those pieces to put them back together ,It will not be just 5-0 but also we will present You with record breaking historical defeat in every single match. The demise of Bollywood Sports Department has started , it is inevitable when You keep mocking at others and you live in complacency , Karma will always bring You back to the spot You deserve . The way the indian players have grown over last 16 years since IPL started has decimated their ability to play longer format cricket either ODI or Test. Neither they can play swing and nor they can play sping.Bowling has never been strong suit of India.At least they were able to bat and particulalry against spin but they have lost the skillsets too. This is going to continue for long time and particularly as long as the domestic cricket is impacted by IPL. Most of the players are busy with IPL retention rather then masteting skill. Indian is entering into darkness for long time and IPL will just reinforce this journey. To be honest other players from other teams should stop coming just for money , otherwiae their cricket will be destroyed and will start loosing home series like India got squashed by NewZealand.

@@HarshrajSinghBEE can you explain in this fast bowling attack who performed this year except bumrah, siraj performance has deeped, rana hasn't played any, akashdeep still in his start of the career, navdeep saini has some experience bowling in aus but he is in reserve players
@@vikramkanuganti5916 akashdeep doesn't have that much experience according to you but he has proved in England series and Bangladesh series where pitches were docile. Plus Siraj bowled extremely well in the last BGT which you have completely forgotten. In Indian conditions fast doesn't play a major role, if some fast bowlers don't get wickets then it doesn't mean they are out of form or do not have the calibre. Last time we won the series with an inexperienced lineup, but this time we have Bumrah, Siraj and Akashdeep, plus Harshit Rana who have performed well in domestic matches in the last two months. What else do you want???
Why no Shardul Thakur this time around? Dude needs to be on the tour for SENA countries, at least Aus and Eng. He needs the backing. And is the BCCI looking to permanently pull the curtains over a good test player like Hanuma Vihari? It's just sad.
India's loss to kiwis has considerably reduced chances of WTC final and Australia and South Africa are hot favourite. Will RO-KO still be picked by selectors if India fails to reach the WTC final ?
Great analysis. outlining the thoughts of our generation. It would be great if we can scrape through the WTC final in 2025. But the Series could be a 3 - 2 favouring Australia..
NZ has beaten us at home already. People are still hyping India and not looking at reality. We have quite a few stubborn out of form players who don't play ranji and are not even dropped. Heroism runs cricket in India.
Harsha Ji ! I will give my suggestion, please do consider... 1.Jaiswal 2.Gill ( if fit ) Either Sai Sudarshan or Padikal 3.Pujara - Tested batsman will perform 4.Kohli - Tested but out of shine 5.Sarfaraz - Attacking but not stable 6.Pant - Tested 7.Jadeja - Bowling is down - hope he bats at least 8.Washington - Hope to do magic with the ball 9. Reddy- So back up with the bat maybe with ball 10. Shami or Mukesh Maybe will click 11.Bumrah Champion
Definitely going to miss Pujara and Rahane here.. There is no batsman in the current squad who has test batting abilities that is to stay there and be resilient enough.. Virat & Pant should definitely play some great knocks here..
I think India had the best squad in the 2018-19 series for an Australia tour. For winning in Australia, I feel pace bowlers need to be on song, and here we do not have the experience of Ishant sharma as well. Shami is a necessity in this series, hoping fingers crossed that he recovers swiftly 🤞
When the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma couldn't read the pitches in Bengaluru and Pune then God save them against Mitchel Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazelwood at the MCG, Perth and Sydney. If they don't play to their full potential, we're doomed in the Border Gavaskar Trophy for real this year.
Harsha's absolutely spot on with reference to 2011-12 tour - Pattinson, Hilfenhaus and Siddle ran through our pedigreed but ageing batters back then. Shami's absence will be sorely felt. The batting overall doesn't evoke much confidence in bowler friendly surfaces - there's just no one of Pujara's ilk who can hold one end up in tight games. We could see the emergence of Dhruv Jurel, Washington Sundar and Harshit Rana this series. On Sarfaraz, his attitude is commendable but one fears his technique will get dissected at Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide.
I feel sorry for Pujara. He was key player in india last 2 series wins in Australia . He failed one or two in between series and is now not even in the selectors scheme of things . I think he would be India best batter in Australia
Axar patel and shardul are missing, umesh yadav would have done wonders in australia but they never take him there Yashaswi will face a challenge with bounce as he doesnt move much , but he cuts good so im excited to see him. Also would have loved rajat patidar for white ball series against sa
Sir, good analysis. The way you told, this could be a big tour for both gill & yashaswi. Also, if big 4 contributes to the best of there potential, then Indians slight gets an edge over Aussies. Aussies might see Virat for one last time on there soil. Cheers team India. 👍
Missed you at Pune; your insights and soothing voice would have made the series loss a bit easier to understand and it might have weighed a little less.
Nitish Reddy is gonna be the x factor in this team. Will play a Hardik Pandya/Shardul Thakur kind of role for sure. I hope he has a good time down under
Hi Harsha , I’m way too small to even open my mouth in front of you but I always felt that Virat is not the same player when it comes to playing spin . It happens , when you become a star , not playing internal tournaments ( this is not a dig at him, we all are so proud of him ). It happens . He loves , pace to play his shots . Also, we have to agree to the ill effects of t20. Creates brittle defence . If you see ,smith , Kane . They are no longer the same . That’s how Root is ahead of the ‘ fav 4’brigade and expected to topple many records .
Not even a single word about the series lost to New Zealand. Wow! Hurting inside Harsha? Maybe you see that as a one off series loss 🤞🏼 Love to see your POV of that as well.
Need a solid No. 3 in the squad. Either select Pujara or someone new batsmen as Shubham is not fit for no. 3 as he should open with Rohit and Jaiswal should play if anyone out of them flops as an opener. As in current series, we donot see any plan for no. 3 , we might see ourself lose 4-0 or 5-0 in BGT.
@@jetpark3743 I wonder how will he play Ranji if he is constantly the part of T20 and one day squad.......as far as I remember, Arshdeep also played county cricket recently and even Siraj didn't have a nice ranji record when he debuted in BGT
Ruturaj really deserved a spot in the team! Look at his form in the recent matches, not sure why he is given a very limited opportunities. Pujara is a solid player in the middle order, capable of tiring the bowlers while also scoring runs.
I think announcing in the Middle of ongoing series is a blunder .they should have waited and then analyse after this series who are the key players that should be there .who are the key bowlers that should be there..they have added t20i bowlers and middle order looks fragile as well
Harsha, we can read between the lines😂 that the thinking in scheduling, playing players for practice games and few fringe players is below average. So, it boils down to Australia, on how they play. If Aussies played like Aussies, this Indian team will struggle, but Aussies also going through transition and have so many aged players who might struggle and that will make it even stevens
i have a strong feeling that it will be whitewash 5-0 would be the last series for virat, Rohit jaddu ash. Transition should begin from Mumbai test. Would love to see Eswaran and Jurel play in place of Virat and Rohit. Harshit and nitish should also make debut in place of bumra and akashdeep. Sutar and axar should replace jaddu and Ashwin
ashwin hasnt been that bad to be replaced like that tho axar for jaddu should be straight swap idk about jurel maybe we should try kl on that no 4 if perfroms keep him
nah i beleive even in our worst we will win atleast one test match but with Yashashvi , Shubhman , Pant we could win this time also and Virat is made for this moment only
How fickle you people are no? Just before this series everyone was like Wow what a team India has become, even beating them in foreign countries was hard, but just after two matches kiddos like you saying 5-0 BGT. And you call yourself an Indian Team fan. I know transition must happen but in reality it is happening, never ever a whole young squad ever should play because they have no experience how to make a comeback from defeat, transition should always happen but in a continuous way not in an extreme way. Experience with youth can only drive the team forward to success. And my strong feeling 3-2 for India in BGT!!
kuldeep yadav one leftie fast bowler like T natrajan and Cheteshwar pujara was needed but i personally think our bowling is not that much issue in sena countries when shami bumrah pair is there but its our batting which lets us down.
5-0 loading 🔥 for the Aussies I will be supporting the Aussies in this series and will want to beat the hell out of these non performing series who are getting selected even after the home series loss. We don't need a Rohit or Virat to win BGT we saw that in 2021 You just need a good leader
Tanmay, even I am pissed we lost to NZ at home, but they are actually kryptonite of Indian team. Yes the form Rohit and Virat are in ryt now, you are never sure when fame Indian batting line up fail again in BGT. Still, I would think that they should not lose like 5-0
Rohit Sharma’s statement will be after loosing BGT 2024-25 “We had won BGT in last tour and this time lost, it happens. It is not big deal,,please mark my this words 😊
One series loss in 12 yrs and we want players to retire. Unbelievable we're as a Nation with our emotions like the other team is not entitled to compete. Newzealand is playing well and they deserve the win. Looking fwd to this series and like millions this is one of my favourites. With Team India all the way.
It looks like granting exemptions to senior players such as Rohit Sharma, Kohli, Bumrah, and Ashwin from playing domestic cricket has back fired. The reason given was to shelter them from injury! Anyone can get injured at any time, even during routine net practice.
My bet on Jaiswal, Gill & Pant in the batting and Bumrah Siraj & Washy in the bowling. If Virat and Rohit perform, on experience, great! Good luck India
100% White Wash, we will return with lots of drama to home. We are about travel with one wkt taking bowler and rest all pacers just to fill the XI only. Indian Test Cricket Down Fall just started and it will be big in BGT Series. Especially, this coaching staff over rated. I has confidence, this team just join before boarding aircraft and play one practice match as standard and will going to suffer a lot. No Plans how to face bowlers, no plans to over come batting weakness. Srilanka has exposed and Newzeland unlocked at our home and Aussies will send us back with huge humiliation. Rohit, mindset has changed and he doesn't care team winning, he play as he wish to start. Gill, it is good not speak about him. Virat, each day passing he becoming unprofessional, especially 8n his batting. He has spin bowling weakness. Sachin prepared in Chennai against Sivaramakrishnan to face Shane Warne. That is professionalism. KL, mental is not strong, he push himself into trouble. Pant? Lottery. We dumped Pujara. We disrespect domestic performance, we select based on PR.
@@rekitsnere469 Only way bounce back is, Gambir need to work on Opponent players weakness and set the trap. Working on Analysis, and executing it. Even we Play with 'A' team against full pledged Australia test squad we can win. We play old style cricket. We don't plan. There is no Plan 'A' /'B'. We just wait for one good delivery to take wkts. Travis Head, Klaseen, Elgar, Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, Khawaja, Root, all took advantage of Indian team in capabilities of not planning. And our batsmen don't work on opponent bowlers strategy to score runs. We are reckless, and we focus on endorsements and install stories. For Every series team need to be accountability for Bcci and need to address. I doubt Abhishek Nayar and Ryan Tendescothe Capablities of their coaching. Both are not big players. They were in coaching staff of recommendation. Team need Batting consultant like 'VVS Laxman or Pujara' BGT Series. Without them touring, it will be big embarrassing situation.

@@setabjatarafder3203 Agree. As an ardent supporter of the Indian supporter of the Indian team, somewhere down the line I feel that such shocks/setbacks are sometimes necessary. Like what happened in 2012 against England, and we revamped our test squad, I feel this might well be the trigger point for Indian team to change personnel and particularly play spinners of visiting teams much better. Same happened at the same venue in 2017 facing Stephen O Keefe, and 7 yrs later the same condition against Santner.
I think K L Rahul should be moved up in the batting order 3,4 or 5 to get the best out of him. In Rohit Sharma's absence even he can open the batting. It's injustice to place him at 6 or 7 and play defensive innings when,in the name of bazball Rohit n others on top of the order,get out 30 - 40 runs.
This team will be thrashed to pulp in Australia. Indian fast bowling is in the dumps after Bharat Arun had done so well in the past building a solid Indian fast bowling attack.

Not to forget australia is starting this time in perth and after that a D/N in adelaide which will be super hard for india looking at current form of our players
Why is Pujara not in this team with players playing with T 20 mentality ?? 😮😮😮
Harsha Bhai. Don't you feel we will miss the tenacity of pujara and the cleverness of Rahane during aus tour? Rahane is an astute leader and he has proven himself and led from the front in that game in MCG that too when we were one down at Adelaide after getting bundled out for 36.
Yes Pant was the driver in 2021 test series win but the engine was Pujara and Rahane. India is missing their resilience this time and I think it will be the difference between 2021 and 2024.
Yesterday when i was at the MCA for the match,my friend and me talked what harsha said ,the 2011 team which was ageing , it's the same thing with this team next month.they will just hope that the tour ends really fast.
This australia tour will be the last nail in the coffin for Indian test batting spearheaded by Rahul, Rohit and Virat.
Whatever You do and how much You throw Your hands and legs in air , when You will play with us (Australia) , We will decimate You into so many pieces that You will not be able to find those pieces to put them back together ,It will not be just 5-0 but also we will present You with record breaking historical defeat in every single match. The demise of Bollywood Sports Department has started , it is inevitable when You keep mocking at others and you live in complacency , Karma will always bring You back to the spot You deserve . The way the indian players have grown over last 16 years since IPL started has decimated their ability to play longer format cricket either ODI or Test. Neither they can play swing and nor they can play sping.Bowling has never been strong suit of India.At least they were able to bat and particulalry against spin but they have lost the skillsets too. This is going to continue for long time and particularly as long as the domestic cricket is impacted by IPL. Most of the players are busy with IPL retention rather then masteting skill. Indian is entering into darkness for long time and IPL will just reinforce this journey. To be honest other players from other teams should stop coming just for money , otherwiae their cricket will be destroyed and will start loosing home series like India got squashed by NewZealand.
@@subratabiswas4991Subrata Biswas, lol you are not Australian mate, shut up . Let’s hope gabba doesn’t happen again, because Aussies have not won bgt since 10 years. 36 all out to Gabba win, let’s have a repeat of that shall we?
From Pakistan ❤ Since my childhood you are One of my favourite Commentator
Particularly that match was a memorable victory not only that was serious victory rahane was the capitaln really he is a lucky man
My best wishes for team india to win 5 - o
AS AN INDIAN WE HOLD OUR HEAD IN SHAME WITH THE WAY OUR TEAM HAS LET THE FANS AND PEOPLE DOWN WITHOUT EVEN PUTTING UP A FIGHT
You don't see the fight because you're a hypocrite, no team in the world plays the game to get defeated, definitely not India where toxic fans like you always tell shameful things about them.
I can see their fight and I am also disappointed by their loss but I'm still proud of them because they showed the fight in the second innings in both the matches, you hang your head in shame but I will still be proud on them❤
5-0 in the cards with this bowling attack with no shami if bumrah get injured then it will true, bowling in aus is much more imp then batting
Yeah if the ausies doesn't challenge our ego like 2021, but still I think the result will be 3-1 not 5-0
Kya bhai 2 match pehle to greatest bowling line up bol rahe the aur keval 2 match harne se turant poor bowling line up? Such a fickle minded people you're!!
Wasnt that the same thing said after 36?
@@HarshrajSinghBEE can you explain in this fast bowling attack who performed this year except bumrah, siraj performance has deeped, rana hasn't played any, akashdeep still in his start of the career, navdeep saini has some experience bowling in aus but he is in reserve players
@@vikramkanuganti5916 akashdeep doesn't have that much experience according to you but he has proved in England series and Bangladesh series where pitches were docile.
Plus Siraj bowled extremely well in the last BGT which you have completely forgotten. In Indian conditions fast doesn't play a major role, if some fast bowlers don't get wickets then it doesn't mean they are out of form or do not have the calibre.
Last time we won the series with an inexperienced lineup, but this time we have Bumrah, Siraj and Akashdeep, plus Harshit Rana who have performed well in domestic matches in the last two months. What else do you want???
Why no Shardul Thakur this time around? Dude needs to be on the tour for SENA countries, at least Aus and Eng. He needs the backing. And is the BCCI looking to permanently pull the curtains over a good test player like Hanuma Vihari? It's just sad.
Every time India did well since 2018 in SENA until Gabba it was always been Pujara which we might miss this time around
How good , quality & impeccable you speak harsha--U r just melodious to cricketing ears.
It's high time for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to hit big centuries and that too back to back...
Thank you Harsha for making this video. Greats like you we need to save Test and ODI cricket. Hope to see more on the same. I can listen to you 24*7 ❤
India's loss to kiwis has considerably reduced chances of WTC final and Australia and South Africa are hot favourite. Will RO-KO still be picked by selectors if India fails to reach the WTC final ?
Great analysis. outlining the thoughts of our generation. It would be great if we can scrape through the WTC final in 2025. But the Series could be a 3 - 2 favouring Australia..
Baba inderjeet is pakka longer format player since gambir is a shrewd person i think still baba inderjeet is having some chances like washi and natu
Nothing to discuss..it's 5-0 for Australia.
Anything apart from a 5-0 for Australia will be a shock result
Would have liked to see Rahane and Pujara, they are both great Test players !
NZ has beaten us at home already. People are still hyping India and not looking at reality. We have quite a few stubborn out of form players who don't play ranji and are not even dropped. Heroism runs cricket in India.
They were unbeaten for 12 years. Winning and losing happens. But one thing India should realise is they are not the best players of spin anymore.
After the Nz loss my excitement for bgt had reduced, watching this vlog has increased it again. Thank you once again Mr Bhogle
After this BGT Tour player like Rohit, Virat, Ashwin n Jadeja may take retirement from test cricket. Is what I am thinking.
but after losing the series , or wait till WTC
Harsha Ji !
I will give my suggestion, please do consider...
1.Jaiswal
2.Gill ( if fit ) Either Sai Sudarshan or Padikal
3.Pujara - Tested batsman will perform
4.Kohli - Tested but out of shine
5.Sarfaraz - Attacking but not stable
6.Pant - Tested
7.Jadeja - Bowling is down - hope he bats at least
8.Washington - Hope to do magic with the ball
9. Reddy- So back up with the bat maybe with ball
10. Shami or Mukesh Maybe will click
11.Bumrah Champion
Where is Pujara? He's the one who won those 2 series for India in Australia. After the batting debacle against NZ they should have picked him.
The house is on fire but everyone is obsessed about who will water the plants
Definitely going to miss Pujara and Rahane here.. There is no batsman in the current squad who has test batting abilities that is to stay there and be resilient enough.. Virat & Pant should definitely play some great knocks here..
I think India had the best squad in the 2018-19 series for an Australia tour. For winning in Australia, I feel pace bowlers need to be on song, and here we do not have the experience of Ishant sharma as well. Shami is a necessity in this series, hoping fingers crossed that he recovers swiftly 🤞
When the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma couldn't read the pitches in Bengaluru and Pune then God save them against Mitchel Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazelwood at the MCG, Perth and Sydney. If they don't play to their full potential, we're doomed in the Border Gavaskar Trophy for real this year.
Harsha's absolutely spot on with reference to 2011-12 tour - Pattinson, Hilfenhaus and Siddle ran through our pedigreed but ageing batters back then. Shami's absence will be sorely felt. The batting overall doesn't evoke much confidence in bowler friendly surfaces - there's just no one of Pujara's ilk who can hold one end up in tight games. We could see the emergence of Dhruv Jurel, Washington Sundar and Harshit Rana this series. On Sarfaraz, his attitude is commendable but one fears his technique will get dissected at Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide.
I feel sorry for Pujara. He was key player in india last 2 series wins in Australia . He failed one or two in between series and is now not even in the selectors scheme of things . I think he would be India best batter in Australia
India should play Jurel in 3rd test against NZ. He showed great temperament in his last test against ENG and we need such characters in AUS
Axar patel and shardul are missing,
umesh yadav would have done wonders in australia but they never take him there
Yashaswi will face a challenge with bounce as he doesnt move much , but he cuts good so im excited to see him.
Also would have loved rajat patidar for white ball series against sa
Sir, good analysis.
The way you told, this could be a big tour for both gill & yashaswi. Also, if big 4 contributes to the best of there potential, then Indians slight gets an edge over Aussies.
Aussies might see Virat for one last time on there soil.
Cheers team India. 👍
Missed you at Pune; your insights and soothing voice would have made the series loss a bit easier to understand and it might have weighed a little less.
Nitish Reddy is gonna be the x factor in this team. Will play a Hardik Pandya/Shardul Thakur kind of role for sure. I hope he has a good time down under
You didn't care to mention Cheteshwar Pujara.
you will definitely mention him after the Aus series
Sir all should play in this series...... Bcoz australian attack..... Maximum player will getting injury......
my squad as priorty : ROHIT KOHLI PUJARA RAHANE RAHUL PANT JADEJA ASHWIN KULDEEP SHAMI BUMRAH SIRAJ ARSHDEEP
It's feel Good to see you sir in You tube
Sir suggestion from my side.. Can you update your background.. One kind request
I agree. This might be one tour yoo many especially for Rohit, Jadeja and Ashwin.
Kohli is super fit, can he get his mind back into test mode though ?
Kuldeep Yadav should’ve been there. And they should’ve put pressure on the current guys by including some other batter
Hi Harsha , I’m way too small to even open my mouth in front of you but I always felt that Virat is not the same player when it comes to playing spin . It happens , when you become a star , not playing internal tournaments ( this is not a dig at him, we all are so proud of him ). It happens . He loves , pace to play his shots . Also, we have to agree to the ill effects of t20. Creates brittle defence . If you see ,smith , Kane . They are no longer the same . That’s how Root is ahead of the ‘ fav 4’brigade and expected to topple many records .
What about Cheteshwar Pujara/ Ajinkya Rahane? Are they being considered spent force though they are scoring heavily in domestic cricket?
Not even a single word about the series lost to New Zealand. Wow! Hurting inside Harsha? Maybe you see that as a one off series loss 🤞🏼 Love to see your POV of that as well.
After loss vs NZ , hope India wins against Aussie
DOWNFALL OF INDIAN CRICKET STARTS NOWWWWW IT IS NOW A CRIPPLED TEAM
Need a solid No. 3 in the squad.
Either select Pujara or someone new batsmen as Shubham is not fit for no. 3 as he should open with Rohit and Jaiswal should play if anyone out of them flops as an opener.
As in current series, we donot see any plan for no. 3 , we might see ourself lose 4-0 or 5-0 in BGT.
Axar Patel , Shami and Arshdeep Singh are huge misses
I wish Mayank Yadav came to this squad , again injustice for Rutu 😢
Arshdeep deserves a place in test team.... especially when Shami is not available and Siraj is not in good form
@@pendu5610Arshdeep form not good
@@jetpark3743 how do you know? see his performance in WT20 and World cup 2023
@@pendu5610 this is test cricket. Wake up
@@jetpark3743 I wonder how will he play Ranji if he is constantly the part of T20 and one day squad.......as far as I remember, Arshdeep also played county cricket recently and even Siraj didn't have a nice ranji record when he debuted in BGT
Summing up nicely, Harsha!
Virat average from last 5 years in test cricket from Jan 2020 is 32 and has only 2 centuries but he is playing on name of big player quota.
His this wtc cycle's average is 47 bro only in this series his average is bad bro
oof, 2011 tour was what came to mind immediately looking at this selection. It might have been a good idea to have a Pujara in the back pocket
Cant understand Washi's inclusion over more experienced Axar
its also BIG Tour for VIRAT KOHLI...... oh DAMN Harsha,,, its on loooop the way u said...............................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hoping for good Opening partnerships between abhimanyu and yashasvi in two starting matches replacing rohit himself 😅
Looking at the form our batters are in, it's definitely gonna be Australian summer
Talking about passing the baton, they should have included Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan and Ruturaj Gaikwad
Iyer 😂😂😂😂
bro, even joe root throwed him bouncer in first match against eng
What about giving a chance to someone like sai Sudarshan and ruturaj gaikwad
Iyer is the last player to take to SENA especially bouncy conditions like Aus and SA. He'll be a walking wicket
@@Jotghuman1722still better average than Rohit,Rahul,gill
Ruturaj really deserved a spot in the team! Look at his form in the recent matches, not sure why he is given a very limited opportunities. Pujara is a solid player in the middle order, capable of tiring the bowlers while also scoring runs.
I think announcing in the Middle of ongoing series is a blunder .they should have waited and then analyse after this series who are the key players that should be there .who are the key bowlers that should be there..they have added t20i bowlers and middle order looks fragile as well
Damage control the series loss against nz is huge they needed something to cover it up🤣
Harsha, we can read between the lines😂 that the thinking in scheduling, playing players for practice games and few fringe players is below average. So, it boils down to Australia, on how they play. If Aussies played like Aussies, this Indian team will struggle, but Aussies also going through transition and have so many aged players who might struggle and that will make it even stevens
DOWNFALL OF INDIAN CRICKET STARTS NOWWWWW IT IS NOW A CRIPPLED TEAM
The way India are playing in the mz series and emerging Aisa cup it's better to watch and have interest in IPL.....so I need kkr retention video 🎉❤
Pujara deserved a last Aus series...he was the key in 2018 and 2020-2021...
While shami & pujara will be sadly missed among seniors rituraj & arshadeep will also be missed from the younger set. Sad. Crazy selection policies
Ruturaj and Arshdeep ?? Are u kidding me
Rituraj has done nothing at red ball domestic cricket to get a spot ahead of Easwaran. Arshadeep similarly has done nothing at red ball level.
Vihari and any left arm pacer needed to be there
Abhimanyu Eswaran
Yasaswi jaiswal
Sarfaraz khan
Shubman gill
Rishab panth
Nitish kumar Reddy
Aswin
Bumrah
Harsith Rana
Siraj
We will miss pujara ,he was the one who used to frustrate aussie bowwlers as a result they used to give lose balls
My dream 11 in australia would be
Jaiswal
Gill
Sarfaraz/eshwaran
Kohli
Rohit
Pant
Jadeja/kuldeep
Washington
Bumrha
Akashdeep
Siraj/shami/harshit rana
i have a strong feeling that it will be whitewash 5-0 would be the last series for virat, Rohit jaddu ash. Transition should begin from Mumbai test. Would love to see Eswaran and Jurel play in place of Virat and Rohit. Harshit and nitish should also make debut in place of bumra and akashdeep. Sutar and axar should replace jaddu and Ashwin
ashwin hasnt been that bad to be replaced like that tho axar for jaddu should be straight swap idk about jurel maybe we should try kl on that no 4 if perfroms keep him
nah i beleive even in our worst we will win atleast one test match but with Yashashvi , Shubhman , Pant we could win this time also and Virat is made for this moment only
Knee jerk reactionary idiot
How fickle you people are no? Just before this series everyone was like Wow what a team India has become, even beating them in foreign countries was hard, but just after two matches kiddos like you saying 5-0 BGT. And you call yourself an Indian Team fan.
I know transition must happen but in reality it is happening, never ever a whole young squad ever should play because they have no experience how to make a comeback from defeat, transition should always happen but in a continuous way not in an extreme way. Experience with youth can only drive the team forward to success.
And my strong feeling 3-2 for India in BGT!!
kuldeep yadav one leftie fast bowler like T natrajan and Cheteshwar pujara was needed
but i personally think our bowling is not that much issue in sena countries when shami bumrah pair is there but its our batting which lets us down.
5-0 loading 🔥 for the Aussies
I will be supporting the Aussies in this series and will want to beat the hell out of these non performing series who are getting selected even after the home series loss.
We don't need a Rohit or Virat to win BGT we saw that in 2021
You just need a good leader
Okay we will see
I am with you. This team has to be humiliated. But they won’t mind it. They are shameless and rich
Tanmay, even I am pissed we lost to NZ at home, but they are actually kryptonite of Indian team. Yes the form Rohit and Virat are in ryt now, you are never sure when fame Indian batting line up fail again in BGT. Still, I would think that they should not lose like 5-0
Agreed

One series loss in 12 yrs and we want players to retire. Unbelievable we're as a Nation with our emotions like the other team is not entitled to compete. Newzealand is playing well and they deserve the win. Looking fwd to this series and like millions this is one of my favourites. With Team India all the way.
It looks like granting exemptions to senior players such as Rohit Sharma, Kohli, Bumrah, and Ashwin from playing domestic cricket has back fired. The reason given was to shelter them from injury! Anyone can get injured at any time, even during routine net practice.
Pujara was the glue at thiss position will be interesting how gill gets on. Starc hazlewood and cummins top bowlers.
THIS SERIES WILL MARK THE END OF ROHIT ASWIN
Kohli too
Kohli n Jadeja also
My bet on Jaiswal, Gill & Pant in the batting and Bumrah Siraj & Washy in the bowling. If Virat and Rohit perform, on experience, great! Good luck India
100% White Wash, we will return with lots of drama to home.
We are about travel with one wkt taking bowler and rest all pacers just to fill the XI only.
Indian Test Cricket Down Fall just started and it will be big in BGT Series.
Especially, this coaching staff over rated.
I has confidence, this team just join before boarding aircraft and play one practice match as standard and will going to suffer a lot.
No Plans how to face bowlers, no plans to over come batting weakness.
Srilanka has exposed and Newzeland unlocked at our home and Aussies will send us back with huge humiliation.
Rohit, mindset has changed and he doesn't care team winning, he play as he wish to start.
Gill, it is good not speak about him.
Virat, each day passing he becoming unprofessional, especially 8n his batting. He has spin bowling weakness.
Sachin prepared in Chennai against Sivaramakrishnan to face Shane Warne. That is professionalism.
KL, mental is not strong, he push himself into trouble.
Pant? Lottery.

@@rekitsnere469 Only way bounce back is, Gambir need to work on Opponent players weakness and set the trap.

Even we Play with 'A' team against full pledged Australia test squad we can win. We play old style cricket. We don't plan. There is no Plan 'A' /'B'.
We just wait for one good delivery to take wkts.
Travis Head, Klaseen, Elgar, Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, Khawaja, Root, all took advantage of Indian team in capabilities of not planning.
And our batsmen don't work on opponent bowlers strategy to score runs.
We are reckless, and we focus on endorsements and install stories.
For Every series team need to be accountability for Bcci and need to address.
I doubt Abhishek Nayar and Ryan Tendescothe Capablities of their coaching.
Both are not big players. They were in coaching staff of recommendation.
Team need Batting consultant like 'VVS Laxman or Pujara' BGT Series.
Without them touring, it will be big embarrassing situation.

@@setabjatarafder3203 Agree. As an ardent supporter of the Indian supporter of the Indian team, somewhere down the line I feel that such shocks/setbacks are sometimes necessary.
Like what happened in 2012 against England, and we revamped our test squad, I feel this might well be the trigger point for Indian team to change personnel and particularly play spinners of visiting teams much better.
Same happened at the same venue in 2017 facing Stephen O Keefe, and 7 yrs later the same condition against Santner.
I think K L Rahul should be moved up in the batting order 3,4 or 5 to get the best out of him. In Rohit Sharma's absence even he can open the batting. It's injustice to place him at 6 or 7 and play defensive innings when,in the name of bazball Rohit n others on top of the order,get out 30 - 40 runs.
This team will be thrashed to pulp in Australia. Indian fast bowling is in the dumps after Bharat Arun had done so well in the past building a solid Indian fast bowling attack.
