Captain kohli and Co will be shitting themselves against him like they did last test. Think India are starting to realise that their lack of any quality quick bowlers is a real problem.

bird to play instead of Lyon
So could someone tell me what actually is conducive to making a ball swing ?
There's so many myths out there - cloud cover, humidity, green tops etc..
EDIT: This is a pretty good article actually.

Good post by this bloke too about why green pitches are good for pace/swing bowling:

Not as if Kholi spends much time out in the middle

Kholi didn't help much getting the runs

Irrespective, I suspect that 'Kohli and co' are less than terrified. I really don't understand how any professional cricketer could be in this day and age anyway. Steyn and Johnson are the only two bowlers in the last decade to do any proper physical damage to anyone on any more than a one off basis. And even then, a guy like Smith was clearly 'unterrified' enough to face Johnson with a shattered hand in a dead rubber.
Because they are human. The human mind is an amazing thing. Many things scare humans that in reality should not or could not harm us. A bloke charging in and hurling a hard object at you giving u bugger all time to react means the threat of harm is always present even if serious injury rarely occurs.

Id hate the be a selector today. The is the biggest game of cricket for australia in maybe 10 years. The bowling combo for australia will be that deciding factor, bigger than Kohli missing anyway.

Missing Kholi hurts us he's barely hit the ball off the square
I will be surprised if Kohli doesn't suit up for this Test. He'll want to be out there flinging s**t around if India wins.

Hopefully thats the last we'll see of Lyon as our number one spinner. Over rated crab.

Well after yet another 1/100+ performance (more than any Australian player ever) he wont be once he leaves India and gets back to Australia. O'Keefe is number one now.

Warner needs runs like Kholi needs cancer. Let Khawaja have a crack and wait until they are back on flat decks before slotting the front runner in again
Sorry, I was being sarcastic. I think they've been pretty good wickets too!
