    I would keep openers the same. Put Ravinder at 3. Bring in Daryl Mitchell to bat 6.

    Swap Wagner for Ajaz (or maybe Somerville)

      Big question of course is who will bat in the top 3?

      I'd imagine they'll promote Blundell to open and move Young to first drop - which might perhaps lean them towards Philips as someone who could take a stint with the wicketkeeping gloves to give Blundell a chance to freshen up near the end of an innings?

      I'd still pick Mitch Jr. and make Blundell tough it out.

      Latham could keep for a while if necessary.

        Someone needs to check the coins used for the toss in India.

          Yeah - one of them would have to run into the sheds and change one set of pads for another, though.

          Someone needs to punch Little Kane on the nose.

          If they make it hurt worse than his elbow, then he won't notice his sore elbow. In my experience you only notice the thing that hurts worst! 🙂

                Actually Cricinfo has Wagner in the team list, so not sure what is going on.

                  Looks like Wagner in for Somerville.

                          We are useless tossers.

                          Having lost the toss, Cricinfo better have the correct story and Wags playing!

                            Cricinfo have 2 different teams listed. I guess we'll have to wait to see who runs out to know for sure.

                                @nzzp An oldie but a goodie! 🙂

                                But seriously, what proportion of tosses have we won in the past five years? We seem to be at the whim of the opposition captain far more often than dictating terms!

                                  Commentators saying India won all 5 tosses on the tour. That's a 1 in 32 chance if the coins are fair.

                                    @damo Fuck - it looks like it's Somerville.

                                    Put me on record - bad decision!

                                        Let's hope there is some swing early. Rip through them and we can bat days 2 and 3.
