In India, you don't go with 3 seamers... Especially in Chennai.. Swap Ishant ( who bowls well oversees only) with Sundar .

Yeah most probably they will go with Sundar for his batting but I read somewhere that there is more grass than usual on the pitch, if Pandya can bowl atleast 10 overs then that would be perfect.

Was hoping for ind vs england...at least india vs Australia...

NZ relies on kane williamson too much outside NZ... They are good 1 day and t20 side.. Just not sure they are good test side

Match being in England will definitely even out the contest if it is IND vs NZ. 

if England/AUS qualifies then it will be one sided

Too early for pandya...he hasn't started bowling in one days yet...india might be missing another genuine spinner... Sundar adds batting but india doesn't need that much depth ... Pant, Ashwin enough

Actually Axar may get a chance ... Much better bowler compared to Sundar in tests.. unfortunately for india difficult to drop Sundar .. Public perception ... But if you want to select the right team go with who can win the match... For india winning the first one is super important ...

New Zealand qualify for WTC final after Australia-South Africa postponement

Australia, India and England are in the race to book a berth at the showpiece event at Lord's.

Australia's tour of South Africa has been postponed indefinitely. It is extremely unlikely that the series can be rescheduled in time for the results to count towards the final of the World Test Championship, set to be played in June at Lord's. And that means a few fresh tweaks to the scenarios in the run-up to that final.

Does this mean New Zealand are through?

Yes. Australia, marginally behind New Zealand on the points table at this stage, will not get the opportunity to go past them now. India and England are both in contention, but since they play each other, only one of them can exceed New Zealand's points percentage of 70. That means New Zealand versus…

Australia, possibly?

Australia are not out of it yet, but they will be ruing the four points they dropped because of a slow over-rate against India in the Boxing Day Test. Had that not happened, Australia would have been level with New Zealand on 70, which would then have brought the runs-per-wicket ratio into play (that is the ratio of the runs scored per wicket lost, and the runs conceded per wicket taken). Australia's ratio is currently 1.39 while New Zealand's is 1.28.

This means Australia would have stayed ahead of New Zealand if they hadn't been docked those four points, and would have been certain of qualification. Now, they will need India and England to help them out: if the two teams share the total points on offer from the series in such a way that their overall percentages drop below Australia's 69.17, then Australia can still make it to the final. That can happen only if the series is drawn (by any margin), or if England win 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1, or if India win 1-0.

What do India need to do to qualify?

Both India and England will target Australia's points percentage - whichever teams tops 69.17 will qualify.

India need 70 points from the four-Test series to go past Australia. That means they need to win by at least a 2-1 margin - that will fetch them 30 points for each of the two wins, and 10 points for one draw; 3-0 or 3-1 or 4-0, of course, work even better.

And England, don't they have a shot too?

England need 87 points from these four Tests to go past Australia. That means they need to win at least three matches. History is against them there, though - the last time a touring team won three Tests in a series in India was West Indies, in 1983-84.

2-0 should work for us.

Yeah , but these days we are getting more results and less draws... 

Even sydney would have a result...extra ordinary circumstances like multiple injuries forced india to play epic defence...

తొలి టెస్టుకు ముందు ఇంగ్లాండ్‌కు ఎదురుదెబ్బ తొలి టెస్టుకు ముందు ఇంగ్లాండ్‌కు ఎదురుదెబ్బ

టీమ్‌ఇండియాతో రేపటి నుంచి ప్రారంభమయ్యే తొలి టెస్టుకు ముందు ఇంగ్లాండ్‌ జట్టుకు గట్టి ఎదురుదెబ్బ తగిలింది. ఆ జట్టు యువ ఓపెనర్‌ జాక్‌ క్రాలే చెన్నైలో జరిగే రెండు టెస్టులకూ దూరమయ్యాడు. బుధవారం అతడి పుట్టిన రోజు సందర్భంగా చెపాక్‌లోని డ్రెస్సింగ్‌ రూమ్‌లో అనుకోకుండా కిందపడ్డాడు. దాంతో కుడిచేతి మణికట్టుకు గాయమైంది. వైద్య పరీక్షలు చేయించగా గాయం తీవ్రమైందని, ఇక్కడ జరిగే రెండు టెస్టులకూ అతడు ఆడలేడని ఆ జట్టు యాజమాన్యం పేర్కొంది. తమ వైద్య బృందం అతడిని నిరంతరం పర్యవేక్షిస్తుందని తెలిపింది.

ఈ విషయంపై స్పందించిన ఇంగ్లాండ్ కెప్టెన్‌ జోరూట్‌ ఇలా జరగడం నిరాశ కలిగించిందని చెప్పాడు. క్రాలే ఈ సిరీస్‌ కోసం ఆశగా ఉన్నాడని, ఇక్కడ రాణించేందుకు ఆసక్తి చూపాడని రూట్‌ అన్నాడు. అనుకోకుండా డ్రెస్సింగ్‌ రూమ్‌లో కిందపడినట్లు వివరించాడు. ఇప్పుడతడు ఆడలేని స్థితిలో వేరొకరిని తీసుకోవాల్సి ఉందని, తమ జట్టులో తగిన ఆటగాళ్లు సిద్ధంగా ఉన్నారని ఇంగ్లాండ్‌ సారథి పేర్కొన్నాడు. ఏదేమైనా టీమ్‌ఇండియా లాంటి బలమైన జట్టుతో తలపడేందుకు అత్యుత్తమ ఆటగాళ్లతో బరిలోకి దిగుతామని రూట్‌ స్పష్టం చేశాడు. ఇదిలా ఉండగా, క్రాలే ఇప్పటివరకు 10 టెస్టులు ఆడగా 616 పరుగులు చేశాడు. అందులో ఒక శతకం, మూడు అర్ధశతకాలు ఉన్నాయి. ఇక ఇటీవల శ్రీలంకతో ఆడిన రెండు టెస్టుల్లో ఈ ఇంగ్లాండ్‌ ఓపెనర్‌ విఫలమయ్యాడు. నాలుగు ఇన్నింగ్స్‌లో కలిపి 35 పరుగులే చేశాడు.
