Has any player on the bench throughout a series ever been talked about as much as Ashwin? At least do him the decency of making him 12th man.

Agreed on this team and having Kohli as captain. And quite apt in not taking a single spinner and 5 pacers with the pitches rolled out for this series.

Pujara, Bairstow and Jadeja had very ordinary series. Still get into the XI. Shows how the batting has been poor this series.

So you are picking Joe Root as captain?
Looks like you didn't watch this series and the fifteen series before this one.
