Big 3 has better batting, but that ROW 4-man pace attack is brilliant. Could also bring in WOR as an enforcer.

Where is the match? what is the pitch like?

Don't think it would be close ..

Big 3 wins for me

Surely SA should be in the big 3 for this instead of India?

I picked Brook. I wasn't sure between Bavuma and Head.


Jamie Smith is a much worse keeper than Veryenne. I would have picked Carey but he's dropped some sitters lately. With a strong top 6 and decent 8 & 9, a better keeper is far more important.


I also almost picked Rizwan ahead Pant for the same reason.

huge gap in batting skills of Jamie and Veryenne

Not a single international Cricket team is taking Veryenne over Jamie, not that Jamie is a bad keeper either, he is average and just had a bad game.

Okay, I'll change it to Carey.

Carey is as bad as Jamie with the gloves but far worse with the bat, just put Jamie there smh

Carey is quite a good keeper and almost the same as Smith with the bat.

....did we not see the last Aus vs WI match

Yeah I watched it, but had to check the scorecard. Good win to the Windies.

Carey scored 65 and 21, got 3 catches and stumping, and conceded 4 byes.

No, you said the LAST Aus vs WI match (not the current one).

Jamie Smith's keeping has been underwhelming, to be honest. I remember he dropped Salman Ali Agha during the Pakistan series, and that mistake arguably cost England the match—and possibly the series.
