Abhimanue Reddy: Lets trust there is a method behind this madness.
Legends Allan Border and Sunil Gavaskar bring the Border-Gavaskar trophy to the middle as the teams get ready for the anthems.
batuk: "Why Harshit over Akash Deep? Is he a more "back of a length" bowler? Has he had notable multi-day match performances?" -- Harshit is quite new to first-class cricket, having played just 10 matches. But from all accounts, he has been impressive in Australia so far during the practice sessions.
Raviteja: Ind purely went based on recent form and horses for courses rather than experience. Hmmm interesting
Jarvis: @Balaji: your wish is granted. Might as well buy a lottery ticket !
So interesting selection from India. As reports suggested they have gone with Harshit Rana over Akash Deep and Prasidh Krishna. Bold call to bat first as well.
