Too many wicket keeper batsman in DD team

Not brainfade that. They are using them as batsmen first. People assume that if it is wicket keeper, then we don't need too many, well look at their prime job, they are batsman first these days.

 

Like Samson, he can keep but with others around, he is being used as batsman only.

 

Similarly, all Samson, De Kock(injured right now) and Pant, can play in the same game if they are all fit as all are capable of scoring runs.

But they should have selected some middle order batsman.

They also are packed with lots of fast bowlers, fast bowling all-rounders

Thats two different thinngs. Yes, ideally they should have selected middle order batsman for the amount of overseas bowlers they have picked. Currently Rabada, Hilfenhaus and other all rounders are sitting out and not playing, could have picked a good overseas middle order player instead of them.

Tracking dumb decisions by management which dont make any sense

 

KXIP not playing Morgan,playing Axar at 3

 

DD opening with Tare when Pant is there

 

RPS not playing Faf

 

any more?

I know RPS management is dumb as anything but who would you drop? 

Stokes tahir smith cant be dropped. Play lockie instead of zampa and it can be very good. No need for faf when they have 3 players like him who start slow and build innings.

Baba Aparajith not getting a game for RPSG despite the team doing poorly since last year. Should be given chances to see how he does. 

 

KKR giving long rope to Yusuf who is basically finished as a cricketer when they have proven domestic performers Jackson and Jaggi on bench.  

 

DD not opening with Rishabh Pant and wasting him at #5 when that hack Tare is a proven failure yet still opening the batting. 

 

Gujarat playing 4 overseas openers in the XI and basically relying on TTFs like Praveen and Dhawal in the bowling department.

True. They played that unknown batsman Tripathi last match to replace Tiwari when it was the ideal case to include Baba.

Seriously did he do something wrong with fleming that he never got to play even one match either with CSK or RPS? :((

Mishraji swatting flies when there was Pant playing a dream innings at the other end

don't think that was a brainfade. that was just that knobhead overestimating himself along with all the rimjobs that pick him in a cricket team.

they have played Dan Christian and Zampa there :facepalm:

 

With Mayank struggling,Faf can be perfect partner to Rahane

 

Lockie might no do well in Indian conditions
