Reddy's bowling isn't good enough as an all rounder and will not be unless something dramatic happens.
Indian set up will have to decide if he is good enough to bat in the top 6. And that too, so far the answer is clear.
He is 22 years old and hit a ton in first tour of Australia. He has ability but at the moment technically flawed. But ultimately it will be down to whether he has mental toughness to change games once he sorts his game a bit more.

His success or the success of any player on a tour isn't enough. Ultimately what count is first class records. He should be sent back to first class and see if over the next two years he can develop into the player indians hope.

Yasir Shah has a ton in Australia. One fluke innings means nothing. I’ve seen him bat live when I watched the test matches in England. He was struggling finding gaps and never looked like he belonged at the international level. Doesn’t help that he doesn’t bowl much which means he’s competing with proper batsmen like Khan, Iyer, Gaekwad, etc.

He has very minimal first-class experience and has pretty much been picked over IPL form. Still I think India need a player like him on overseas tours since Pandya's body is too brittle to play test cricket. Home tests, not so much
 
I think we may see Australia vs South Africa in WTC final again.

I also expect South Africa to win WTC again. They are simply #1 currently. :inti
 
This South African team is better than Graeme Smith's South Africa.

This may turn out to be South Africa's greatest Test team of all time. They already won one WTC and are now winning a series in India.

I expect them to win multiple ICC trophies. :inti
 
This is what happens when an arrogant & egoistic person replaces likes of Rohit, Virat, Pujara with Jaiswal, Gill, Sudarshan.

Hope new selectors after sacking of Gambhir/ Agarkar select players on Ranji performances instead of IPL in next test series in July-August 2026.
 
Sai Sudharsan is on 13* from 106 balls.

I haven't seen this type of tuk-tuk in a while. Last time I saw something like this was in 2015. :inti
 
All sai can do here is to not get out till the end... But I think he might run out of partners soon
 
Sai gone after a valid effort to save the game... India is done and dusted now.. End is inevitable
 
It was a mistake by South Africa to not enforce the follow on. Jadeja and Washington saw India to a draw in Eng a few months ago, seems like a repeat now.
 
Was surprising seeing the comments yesterday on South Africa not declaring.

Just like when Gill was called defensive for not declaring in England.

South Africa were ruthless and it was the right decision to bat as much as possible.
 
Sunder gone as well.... What a sad loss this is for india again at home... They were supposed to be dominating
 
This is trashing at highest level for India. Will have consequences for Gambir ect.

What is the real problem with our test team ? Hopefully they will fixed before our next series. :kp
 
SA spinners, pacers and batsmen have all outclassed their counterparts.

Playing like true champions atm.

What should be the way forward for India? @Nikhil_cric selection needs to get better?

Yeah, very good repeat...
 
Man india got proper minnow treatment from south africa loosing at home by 400 plus runs is just shamefull never seen this before.
 
Sachin quit captaincy in March 2000 after losing to South Africa 0-2 at home.

Hopefully Gambhir too quits being coach of the test team, if not better to kick him out.

@BouncerGuy my focus is entirely sifted to World T20. Bilateral series kon seriously leta hai. , ICC events jitne hai hame 🤣🤣

Joke aside this is humiliation for team india . Our test team is struggling at this moment hopefully we will recover very soon.
