OK not all but most. But it is not some huge error by the management like everyone is making it out to be. Except for the 5 wicket haul vs Australia in that one innings, he hasn't played outside the subcontinent at all and hence, unproven on how he will do. They are not making him sit out after he has taken huge number of wickets in sena recently or something. England tests are for pacers and spinners are just sideshows except if you are Warne or Murali and so, it makes sense to go with the better batting spinner.

Kuldeep might get smashed by these Bazball hacks who knows. Frustrating that he'll stay unproven though. Just prove it one way or another whether he gets bags of wickets or he gets demolished, I don't care at this point. I just need to see it.

Been a long time since an Indian got a 300. Hope Jaiswal can get a 300 or at least 250 as you say. May your words come true.
be happy if even India get past 300. No one is getting a huge individual score here, especially not Jaiswal- he's been surviving on luck. Gonna go any ball.

Literally couldn't have asked for a better set of conditions to give Kuldeep a game too.

- Flat pitches and hot weather
- Backup seam options are either debutants or ****
- Jadeja not taking wickets but scoring enough runs to bat in the Top 7
- England got spun out by Pakistan and their record shows they score quicker vs pace than spin

If he's not getting an opportunity in these situations then why is he there. He could be playing county instead like Chahal is. The management have failed him, one way or another.

It's now reached the point where a bazbashing would serve as further vindication for naysayers. It's the very definition of setting someone up to fail. What's sad beyond his bowling skills being ignored is that the guy really tries his heart out in other aspects; throws himself around in the outfield in his own clumsy manner and tries to hang around with bat. All considered, he shouldn't have to be reduced to his current plight.
