@cricketingview Without caricature, what exactly is the strategy / rationale that has convinced ENG (with Jacks), AUS (with Green + Webster) and IND (NKR + Sundar + Jadeja)? Clearly they all believe in a similar formula?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@pavilionopinion Inspired by @FinnBalor I think

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@himganj153 This week's Lord's pitch? OT looked slow the last few Tests. Sydney, MCG and Adelaide were usually pretty slow till all Aussies pitches went nuclear a few years back. "Fast" is harder to gauge to the naked eye. Centurion, Wanderers & Newlands? Fast or excessive lateral movement?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@the_kk Thanks 👍🏾 helpful clarification

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@the_kk Sorry Karthik. I meant do the selectors/team management rate Jurel higher than Padikkal since they've opted to chose the former as a frontline batter in the XI? Or is there a broader reason?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@the_kk Interesting. Do they rate him higher than Padikkal as a batter?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@megbasham Which doctrinal issues specifically and who?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@Fancricket12 Not quick enough for the next level I assume?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@Quality_stocksA How about now? 🙃📉

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@willis_macp Feel far from the action?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@himganj153 Kudos indeed

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@himganj153 Nice!

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@Fancricket12 Bharath, he's definitely leapfrogged Easwaran, who had the larger body of FC work. Is that because Sai's seen as a more complete batter or just one with a higher "ceiling"?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@CricketZimbo Probably requires a long answer, but what are the biggest gaps in the talent production line?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@cricvizanalyst @benjonescricket @cricketingview how flat has this pitch been?

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@cricketingview I have a broader question - we have always heard that the captain has a say in the playing XI, so it's not him in isolation is it? Rohit captained in Aus and this change also came about under him.

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@_FaridKhan The team chef.

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@Fancricket12 Who'd you play between Prasidh and Kamboj? If you had to pick one for this Test.

[Neel Bose @Bose_Neel]

@colinwsongs All the best Colin. Hope to see you at Keswick again.
