Restructuring Team India


Recommended Posts

This is now turning out to be India's nightmarish performance ever in the final.

 

A defeat like this should send shockwaves to the selectors who may probably want to have a relook at players who are probably near the end of their careers.

 

Is Yuvi going to be in top fitness until 2019 WC? Is there a succession plan in place for MSD. Valid questions that the selectors need to ponder about.

 

Not to start another Dhoni, Yuvi bashing thread. But, we need ODI specialists who can be developed as we look ahead to World Cup in 2019.

No major restructuring required.

 

Just develop replacements for the aging Dhoni and Yuvi, who may not be in form after 2 years for WC 19.

 

Pant and Samson are the WK batsmen candidates.  Rahul, Pandey and Iyer can be tried in Yuvi's slot.

 

Another allrounder needs to be developed too.....Krunal and Shankar are the candidates but none were picked for the WI tour.

No.4 batsman- we need a new player there. Panday, Pant, Nair

Ashwin/Jadeja are good spinners but we need more options and competition. Kuldeep, Patel, Chahal

New WC batsman- Dhoni's career is now uncertain. He will retire soon if he continues to bat this bad.

No.6 batsman-  Jadhav is good but we don't know if this is just a purple patch. Some competition is needed there. Raina?

 

We have to remember for Bumrah, Pandaya- it was their first England tour, and they will only get better.

My thread is also about the 2 players mentioned.

 

We all love them, but it's time we look into our reserves to build a stronger team with able replacements for these two great cricketers.

To add to that need wicket taking spinners like Kuldeep and Chahal. Enough of these "containing" spinners.

Make Rahul Dravid as chairman of selector , Mohinder Amarnath and Ventakatesh prasad as other selector .

Won't work. Corrupt BCCI babus will leak all kinds of gossipy stories to the media to assassinate their characters and kick them out.

Kohli to be removed from captaincy 

Yuvraj out

Ashwin to be only for Tests

Jadeja only for subcontinent wickets 

This is extreme. Kohli has done well as captain and shouldn't be sacked.

Kohli's captaincy has not been tested in many pressure situations .

Dhoni being in the side makes it look much better than it is.

His ability to captain RCB shows it.

His team selection is very awful

He sticks to a pre drawn script -  What on the field changes is he making ?   - Bowling Ashwin 10 overs ?   Extra over to Jadhav ?  No over to Yuvi ?

Sledging Smith in India and red carpet welcome to Fakhar ?

For god sake, it's only been 6 months since he's been captain. Deserves some time.

Sachin is the greatest player - wasn't a good captain.   Great players do not necessarily make great captains.  

Steve Waugh was an amazing captain but not the best player in the world. 

Kohli just does not seem to have it as far as captaincy goes

That's your view. Selectors and most Indian fans I am sure disagree with snap judgements based on one tournament where we have in fact been runners up.
