The whole new lot of India playing cricket are T20 style players, IPL stars. They say they love Test cricket but has no adaptability to the conditions, be it their technical skills or mindset. Chances should be given to long runners in Ranji trophy players, those ones that smashing and doing well in first class long format. Prasiddh Krishna is the most wrongly judged player to be in the WC squad and this test squad of India. He has just played 13 first class matches. He doesn't belong here yet. India need proper 3rd pace bowler with first class experience to begin with. Both Gill and Iyer are good in smaller format of the game, and batting flaws in test cricket. Opposition has utilised the same this series too. They have been playing test cricket since last 2-3 years now. They have not adapted well yet in SENA. I have never been a fan of Jaiswal, be it any format. May he will smash fastest runs in T20 format, but he doesn't belong here too. Poorest performance of ICT IN TEST CRICKET in recent years (2017-2023) in SENA countries. Need proper planning from Bumrah and Siraj too. Siraj gave 100+ runs which is not acceptable. Too many loose deliveries from both of them. Virat and KL will definitely perform as they have solid experience and been through too many ups and downs. The 2nd match will be disastrous too, I guess with this mindset. Mukesh Kumar must be in place of Prasiddh Krishna and Jadeja in Place of Ashwin. The opening pairs must perform or else this series is already done and dusted.
@CricCrazyJohns Lowest aggregate by batters #5 & below for India in a Test innings 13 runs vs Pak Lahore 1984 15 runs vs Aus Kanpur 1979 16 runs vs SA Centurion 2023 * 20 runs vs WI Kanpur 1958 21 runs vs Aus Adelaide 2020
@CricCrazyJohns Such mediocre performance…. 1990-2023, nothing has changed in Indian team’s performance in SAF
