Thoughts ?
Should the Aussies go with Warner/Pucovski to open, or Warner/Wade and bat the debutant at 5 or 6 ? _________________ Donny.

Rohit Sharma will open for India, while Will Pucovski is expected to make a highly anticipated debut for Australia
https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/india-in-australia-2020-21-1223867/australia-vs-india-3rd-test-1223871/match-preview
"They lost key players before the series, they've lost a few more since its start, and they've been rolled over for their lowest-ever total. It's a wonder that India are still holding themselves together, never mind level in the series and looking, by some measures, a better side than Australia in their own conditions.
They've done this not by becoming more Australian in their approach but by trusting methods that work for them at home: bowling at the stumps rather than in the corridor outside off, and giving themselves insurance by setting strong leg-side fields. Oh, and spin has played as important a role as pace.
But for how long can they keep this run going while losing fast bowlers, one after another, to injury? They played the first Test without Ishant Sharma, played the second without Ishant or Mohammed Shami, and now, at the SCG, will be without Ishant, Shami and Umesh Yadav. This would be like Australia losing Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and James Pattinson to injury and being left with Pat Cummins partnering a pair of rookies."
What more do the Oz batsmen want before they can score huge totals??
Everything has been in their favour and it's still not enough. |
