Whether he will actually succeed.... only trying him will tell us. He needs to be tried in ODIs asap. He should be tried for sure. express bowling 1 Link to comment

Both Pandya brothers have that clean striking ability that is so crucial for batsmen who bat at 6 & 7 in ODIs. Jadhav or Pandey should play at 5 and Dhoni bat at 4. Have Pandya brothers come in at 6 & 7. 6. Krunal 7. Hardik 8. Bhuvi 9. Kuldeep 10. Chahal 11. Bumrah Hopefully Bhuvi can continue his decent batting form also and be a competent number 8. Whom you can trust make runs from above, Chiku insist every bowler need to make runs in ODI NOW virat already starts 2019 WC preparation Edited September 19, 2017 by Wapas Link to comment

I think we are all in agreement that we need another bowling option in the team, a guy that can provide some power-hitting as well. Raina maybe serviceable option today, but not sure about 2019 WC. That's why a guy like Krunal may get an opportunity sooner rather than later, even though he doesn't quite have the domestic track record to 'earn' it. Re-inforces my point about the overall fairness and decent job done by our selectors, overall. When there's a need to fill a specific kind of role, historically Indian selectors have "reached" into the prospect pool, and escalated a player's progression to the national team. Link to comment

Muloghonto Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 No. Indian lineup should be(when fully fit): Rohit Dhawan Kohli Pandey Dhoni Jadhav <----6th guy Krunal Pandya Bhuvaneshwar Kumar/Chahal/Jadeja/Ashwin (pitch dependent) Mohammed Shami Kuldeep Yadav Jaspreet Bumrah Link to comment

And an uproven batting option. Unlikely to be as good as Pandey, might be comparable to Jadhav. Time will tell. Link to comment

None of them bowls that the reason we need someone like KP We are not going after KP the batsman but KP the package 22 hours ago, LORD_analyst said: problem with raina is that he cannot handle good bouncy pitches ...and he plays all big shots on leg side....but krunal is a powerul striker of a ball who plays fast bowlers well too... Whatever i hve seen of KP he plays spin damn well but i have my doubts about his batting against pace bowling, infact in SA-A he was playing bouncers with a horrible technique But he deserves time to fail or succeed , raina has been given enough time now Link to comment
sourab10forever Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Only one way to find out...and plus this is the best time to try him with Jadeja and Ash not around..maybe in the NZ or the SL series. express bowling 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Krunal is a street smart cricketer, he is the one who actually can be an ideal finisher in this side.He plays according to situation,less explosive than his brother but smarter.Its about time Pandya brothers become a certainty in the side. Link to comment
express bowling Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 In the A-tour to SA, Krunal got to play just 3 List A games before getting injured. He scored a 48 off 27 balls and another 25 off 15 balls .... coming to bat with a few overs left. Was economical with the ball in 2 out of 3 matches too. He showcased his temperament by batting well in the IPL final too. tweaker 1 Link to comment
