Two forced changes from the losing 2nd test team, the team is going to be Mitch less unless Swepson is picked. I would replace them with Khawaja and Bird. Cummins has only played one shield match and even though it was very successful it is just not enough to prove he can get through a test match work load. 

I expect Maxwell and Cummins to play and if Maxwell plays I will be supporting India.

lol did I call this the second test thread

I wonder what sort of pitch we will get

With starc gone we may be eager to strengthen the bowling but batting has to be first priority

Starc is injured.

The quandary  in the paper is whether to play Bird or Cummins.

Thoughts?

I'm taking this thread as the Third Test against India thread coming up.

Only place in india (apart from Pune) where Australia has a positive win loss record

If we win this pressure is very much on india
