Indian Board President's XI v Australians:

20 overs 0/123
11 overs 0/76

Match totals of 31 overs 0/199, economy rate of 6.41.

And he made a duck.

Yep. He's the next Cullen. Gifted a birth in the team, then swallowed up and spat out by the Indians (in this case). Our spinners are in for a world of pain now they haven't got Warne at the other end.

Our spinning stocks are embaressing, honestly, we shouldn't even have a spinner on the tour let alone in the team. No point gifting a birth to any of them, none of them are up to the task. Play 4 quicks + Watson.

Plus, gifting them a birth sends two wrong messages, actually three!

1. you're good enough
2. we NEED a spinner
3. we don't have the quicks/seamers to do the damage

The West Indies of old would've taken 4 quicks, perhaps 5 and a part timer in Richards or Gomes. I doubt we've got the seamers to take wickets on their decks these days.

India should shizen this series in in my eyes.

Not exactly going well....

And Cameron White is his backup. Haha

Beau Casson get on a plane son

Hauritz is the best of the lot.

Cameron white will play in the test

No, he won't.

IMO with no Warne, Hogg, MacGill or McGain then Hauritz should be next in line. We'd be better off re-calling Symonds and relying on his, Pup's and Katich's part-time stuff.

I'm Looking forward to this series as we're rebuilding and India are just about finished. If we pick either Krejza or White the odds might tip in India's favour.

birth = berth

Don't be so sure about that. Whilst White is a genuine hack with the ball he is still a better prospect than your mate. At least White won't break down in the first session of day one.

Odd that Krezja was picked.
There was a rumour a few years back that he was being considered to tour India but at that stage he hadn't even played a first class match!

My bowling attack for the Test: Lee, Clark, Johnson, Bracken... with Clarke and Kat bowling a few overs...
yes, i said Kat.

I don't think anyone has ever knocked the Kat's bowling abilities - he does bowl some very handy chinamen spin. He can turn the ball a bit as well, much more than Cameron White....

I agree with your attack too - although I would have liked to have seen Tait be lining up in Bracken's spot if his head had been in the right place earlier this year.

well he was picked in the 12

I cannot believe one of Krejza or White will play in the test, cannot believe it. What an absolute FARCE! Play 4 quicks for crying out loud!

Absolute disgrace!!!

If the Cullen boys (Dan and Bailey) took a wicket each last season they would be in India. Right place, right time. Always is with Aussie side.

Be much more of a farce if Watto gets a game.

Watto will definitely play.
Bat 6, bowl some poo. Again... right place, right time
