...2nd, 3rd and 4th tests will be a thrashing.

I'm very underwhelmed by our chances.

Smith to score 500 runs in the series.

Kohli to straight up punch an umpire in frustration at TPC's greatness.

Khawaja to score fewer than 50 runs in the series.

Whatever it takes!!!
Australia can be surprisingly good tbh. Reckon Starc, Haze will get loads of wickets and The Pretending Chump and Warner and Handscomb to score loads of runs. Wade to get a jammy 100 somewhere during the series too. Expect it to be a very tough series.

Hope Starc freshens up a bit. He's been pretty flat the last few tests. I like Haze's method for Kohli too. Not as optimistic about our batting though I think TPC will do pretty well. Warner needs to step up OS big time if Australia is to have any shot at being competitive across the whole series.

Think India will win pretty comfortably but think Australia might jag a test (hopefully one of the first two to keep it interesting).

Starc and co will go well but the bowling is, for me, largely irrelevent. The Aussie bats won't score enough to stop the Indian spinners from attacking.

If the pitches are as flat as the England series, Australia are going to be much tougher to beat. Really hope we get a couple of real turners.

Got to love that this thread is created despite Australia playing two other countries between Pakistan and this. CA officials must be the only ones who thought those two series in between were a good idea.

I'm not convinced that Starc will be all that great on this tour. Maybe a couple of good spells when he gets it reversing, and leaking runs inbetween.
