Indian team won 17 test series successive from 2013 to untill now . That is a world record

We were so dominant that no team came close to winning the series

But now things have changed dramatically as our batsman can't play against quality spinner's .

So i think we are reaching at the stage where we may lose the a test series against any quality team .

Next india is playing a test series against Bangladesh and NZ in india so we are most likely to lose a series now.
 
Other teams are even worse players of spin than ours, so it equals all.

Against BD in BD it is possible we can lose. BD is a decent side at home and choosen pitches. But in India i doubt it. But if India prepares spinning tracks, it is very much possible as Indian batsman are really poor against spin apart from Rohit

NZ actually has a better chance of winning. They don't have all the tools to succeed in India, but they do have the support staff to come prepared for a lot of eventualities.

But overall, India will struggle once Rohit, Virat and Ashwin retire. I don't see others like Gill, Rahul, Iyers and others to consistently perform under pressure on a difficult pitch. I also don't see good spinners coming up after Ashwin
 
Expect a 5-0 drubbing for India in Australia this time
 
The T20 mindset is creeping into ODIs and it showed.
People are losing their minds for mindless aggression, hope some sense returns!
Most of the player's not Play first class cricket from this generation after selected for national side

They needs to Play first class cricket when there is no international cricket .

Now we will not play any international cricket for next 40 days

Deleep trophy is coming so they should play it .

Kohli's declining form is a real worry
 
If India were to face a setback in the Test series in Australia, it could be attributed to the underperformance of both Kohli and Gill. they are in a really poor form.
 
I don't see it happening for a while.

The only teams capable of doing it are England and Australia but their batsmen are so weak against spin that the chances are slim

Yes , many are overreacting, in this conditions which is like 5th day pitch under lights all teams would have struggled badly ,srilanka is lucky to win all 3 toss , Srilanka players are even worst players of spin than india
 
Gautam has not had a good start to his coaching career with the national team. He will get tested here. India can loose without Bumrah. ALso if Virat keeps getting trapped in front of wickets as he did in the SL odis, things will get worse.

Kohli is really out of sorts since the ODI world Cup, its troubling. Either he improves or is set aside.
We played this series without our best batsmen Jaiswal.
Maybe its GG's plan all along.
