And its on like Donkey Kong...

Heading to Perth, Australian batsmen now realize that India has a legitimate seam attack on sporting pitches (England and SA batsmen could already have told them this), and Bumrah is far from some myth...

Perth will be a drop in at the new stadium - my biggest question is whether CA roads it up or keeps it grassy. India still has their best swing bowler in the reserve if it is grassy. And Ashwin on a sporty Perth wicket if Vihari bats 6 - could easily be swapped out for the useful tail end batting of Indian seam and swing king B Kumar. 

India has a lot of options. Shaw is jogging again, and if fit in time will replace either Rahul or Vijay as their premier opening batsman.

Rohit has not done enough to sleep easy with Vihari offering a legitimate 5th bowling option neither while batting 6.

Lots of Indian fans still prefer the chinamen offerings of K Yadav that bamboozled Australian batsmen in the t20s this season... but I do not feel he has the batting to bust into the team with B Kumar comming in and Ashwin with one of Sharma or Shami getting dropped. So its hard for K Yadav to bust a move. Even if he is the better bowler for Australian conditions as India need to keep a mind on the runs that Bumrah, Shami and Sharma do not score...

I think Ishant did enough to stay in the team...

For Australia - I have no idea what your selectors will do. I have no idea what the pitch will be.

If I see grass on the pitch - I predict a second India win. If its a road... a draw or a win to Australia....

India's batting tail remains a problem with Sharma a genuine number 11, and Shami impersonating Hasan Ali and Bumrah is worse than Chris Martin..

Lets get it on :D
