Adi_91 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 @beetle ji, yes a whitewash after all may not be bad for the WC fortunes. But will our selectors learn even after that? UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

But will our selectors learn even after that? rohit,dhawan,kohli,pandya,dhoni,buvi,bumrah,chahal are certainties for the WC.. that leaves 3 spots open .. the management should decide a core of 7-8 players they want for the remaining 3 spots and give them the max opps in the coming matches.. but, then if wishes were horses UrmiSinhaRay and Suhaan 2 Link to comment

Has 16 scores of 50+ and Indias win % is 62 so thats 15 of his 25 innings of 50+ scores when the team won ? I would be worried when he scores more than when he does not . sandeep and Switchblade 2 Link to comment

UrmiSinhaRay Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Getting whitewashed will probably not be such a bad result. It might help bring about some changes before WC. Short term loss but long time gain.In Kohli's reign , Brand value matters more than Performance.Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk RAZPOR, Switchblade and Suhaan 1 2 Link to comment

At most Dhawan and Kohli are the match winners in this side , as we dont like to play KL Rahul for some odd reasons. Rohit will chip in when he converts his slow starts in 1-2 match. In a nutshell, I am not looking forward to the carnage., with all hopes pinned on two wristys I don't think its an issue with being "equipped". Its more a case of deliberate choice of strategy. I've been harping about India's conservative batting strategy since before the 2015 ODI WC. And I still don't see any changes. If you make a list of the top 10 batsmen available for selection for Indian ODI team, and England - I don't think India has any talent or skill deficit. But the England team have pioneered a collective batting strategy that is stronger than the sum of its parts. And they have been practicing it in the middle for the last 2 years. To the extent where sustaining 7 RPO as a team is a norm for them. While the Indian team's batting tactics are built around allowing the top 3 batsmen to "go big", with very good individual statistics, but as a team, the batting totals put up are arguably consistently under-achieving. I'm actually hoping that the England team can handle Bhuvi, Bumrah and ChaKu - which I don't really think they can. I want England to drop a few 360+ scores on India. Chase down 325 in 45 overs, etc. That's the only way that Indian team will feel the pressure to change its approach. SK_IH, Laaloo, UrmiSinhaRay and 5 others 1 3 4 Link to comment

I used to think it was Dhoni who was responsible for this. His 'first don't lose, take the game deep etc' mindset for our "safe" batting tactics in ODIs. And I had a lot of high expectations from Kuptaan "Aggressive" to change this up. But the last couple of years have seen Virat double down on that method. And why not? Its the formula that has made him India's biggest star. Why would he change it? He can keep batting at #3, keep racking up 100s, and India will win a lot of inconsequential games. Why should he sacrifice personal glory and riches, simply in order to try and push the team results to be 5% better? Especially following a method that is almost guaranteed to dent his batting stats, along with the other 2 "maha rathis" in the top order? Let the middle order, old man Dhoni, etc get blamed for all of India's batting short-comings. Why mess with a good thing? 99% of Indians will go ga-ga over Virat's #xx ODI century. Or if Brohit pounds a few 6s and racks up another daddy ODI 100 or even 200. So what if Brohit's 90s Ganguly-esque strike-rate in the 1st 8 overs is reducing the team total by at least 20 runs if not more, every game? Virat, Bunty and his sister don't mind. Do you?
