6 wickets @ 50 since test recall.
If marnus is as a legitimate option with the ball as your 'all rounder' you've got issues

Urinals have been added back into the plans, apparently.
And it was never going to be no urinals in the whole ground - which is half the capacity you mention - it was just in one section.
Fwiw, the WACA gets more people at women's matches than men's matches these days anyway, and the plan for toilets without urinals was that those could effectively be toilets for everyone, instead of having massive queues for girls and women, and men's toilets practically empty.

Kurtis Patterson has now passed 50 in his last three innings including 91.
Hopefully he has turned a corner. He was comfortably the best of the post-sandpaper debutants. Maybe he can put some pressure on.

Most of the India batters fell to the moving ball; Virat Kohli got a few cover drives away before nicking to second slip"

Pretty worrying as an Indian fan they're getting out in the same manner, beaten by a bit of bounce & pace. You can't be poking or half arsing shots in Perth.

I talked batting with Bradman in 2000. What he told me explains Test cricket’s decline today
As Test cricket braces against dwindling attendance and competing formats, a return to its technical roots might be its lifeline.
Not a massive greg chappell fan but this is a prescient insight re: the decline of long-form batting from a technical perspective

Now they’re saying Gill hurt his left hand fielding in the slips.

Sorts he wheat from the chaff technically
He’s had a major part to play in the decline in batting standards innthis country when he walked away from the fundamentals some years ago for an wasy pay cheque - bit late to change your tune after you sold yourself out

Injured Gill set to miss first Test in Perth
It is still unclear if Rohit will make it in time for the first Test or not
looks like Gill is out
I hope he makes it for the 1st test, especially with Gill potentially missing.

Meh Jaiswal is their best bat and opener anyway.
Looked a good player last time and has also looked pretty good in the A games.
The bloke who holds him out is pretty handy though. He's definitely a good batsman, but is their middle order their problem?
He's not shy either.
He defs won't be pushing out Kohli, Sarfaraz has the no.5 spot sewn up for now. I think you take the chance with both Rohit & Gill out. Push Kohli to 3 & bring Jurel to 4.
1. Jaiswal
2. KL/Easwaran
3. Kohli
4. Jurel
5. Sarfaraz
6. Pant
7.?
8. Jadeja/Ashwin
9. Akashdeep/Krishna
10. Bumrah
11. Siraj
I can't see us going in with only 4 bowlers, maybe both Jadeja & Ashwin play? Alot of unknowns with the indian team imo.
