And has come good about as much as his elder bro in t20is.

His pace and length (chap doesn't have a yorker to save his life still) combined with lack of swing, would make him the ideal fodder for Aussies.
Plus our middle overs need to be used to bowl out our 5 th bowling options and other spinners.

The Pathans may have their problems, but they're not atrociously bad as you make them out to be. At worst, they're still worth their selections in the first XI, as also RP Singh. Umesh Yadav is a longshot of a selection and Ashok Dinda's is a selection on thin ice.
They have their problems, but they can be excused. Other teams manage with players as good, so there's no reason why India can't.
