No, I happen to be naturally intelligent.
Hmm, that's why he didn't bowl at the nets then.
Rahul [this won't happen; Dhawan will play]
Vijay
Pujara
Kohli
Rahane
Dhoni * (5)
Saha +
Karn (4) [this won't happen; Ashwin will play]
Shami (2)
Umesh (1) [this won't happen; Aaron will play]
Ishant (3)
Dhoni not keeping will be better for his thumb too.
Edit: Ideally, Pujara should open with Vijay with Rahane, Kohli, Rohit, Dhoni and Saha in the middle.

Bhuvis gonskis for 2 testis.
That clears the way for the pace attack I'd play of Ishant, Yadav and Aaron. Its a gamble but that trio has pace and bounce and if they are going to work then Australia (apart from Sth Africa) is the place. Yadav is their no.1 fast bowler and the other 2 are gathering form.

Yeah India have no choice but all out attack now. Shami's fading away hurts India even more now Bhuvi is out because the raw Aaron is currently just as good an option. On a less important note, while Harris and Johnson were never going to allow tail end shenanigans at least Bhuvi knows what end of the bat to hold and could have lasted longer than the rest but now it's Ashwin and nobody down low.

Any relation to Samit?

Bhuvi is also a good/decent batsman so it's not just the bowling that's gonna be affected.

I'd modify my previous post by saying I'd play Bhuvi at Adelaide if he was available. Otherwise I think the 3 mentioned are worth a throw.

Dhoni's an immense cricketer. It'll be a big boost to India if he plays. Yeah he's prone to nicking off and his technique is woeful, but he brings a ****load to that side, much of it not really definable by raw numbers. He takes a hell of a lot on, with keeping and captaincy as well as occasionally bailing the side out of strife with the cue.

I believe the gesture of naming Hughes as 13th man is js just that. I suppose you could take the inference Hughes would have been selected if things went according to Hoyle
