Yes . Process is fine . Only needs a little tweaking. Once you find a player exceptional , he should be fast tracked very quickly to A team and oversea tours . And if does well there , he should one of the contenders for National selection atleast in one format. Here it should not matter whether he has played in Domestic matches . This is where tweaking is required . Take the case of u-19 players . Everybody agrees Gill , Nagarkoti & Mavi are exceptional. They should have been in A tour . Not Just one dayers but 4 dayers . Selectors did not do it . Even Pant was drafted at the last minute . Selction team headed by say Vengsarkar , More would pick them in all formats in A team & overseas tours. Where selectorrs are failing is s going back to tried & tested and failed cases. A team performers should get a chance over raina , MSD , even Pandey . Based on what we have seen in A tour so far, will they consider Mayank , Gill , Shaw , Pant over Raina , Pandey ,MSD for the next series ? Thats the million dollar Q . Could be selectors are only to be half - blamed . The RAT -BEWDA -MSD combo has a lot of say in such matters ! express bowling, Mosher, Khota and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Their U19 world cup squad was atrocious with only 1 good player Shaheen Shah Afridi. They realized his potential and straight away drafted him into national side. They make no bones of it. And here we are with our ignoramus selectors. In the same world cup, the likes of Shubhman Gill and Prithvi Shaw flared better than Afridi. But we choose to give more chances to Raina rather. The star of previous U19 world cup Rishabh Pant is still on the awaiting list. I am a huge Dhoni fan but what is he still doing in T20 team with no WC in sight? What happened to likes of Mavi, Nagarkotti etc? Lokesh Rahul forced his way back onto the team...else we would still have Rahane playing at no.4 for us in LOIs. Indian selectors Excellent post Austin 3:16 All the good work done by Dravid and company at U19 and India A levels is being undone by this very risk-averse selection panel. We keep going back to same failures such as Rayudu, Rahane in limited overs where as players like Pant and Gill are waiting on the sidelines forever. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
Popular Post express bowling Posted July 7, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) Having a sound selection process is a good idea. But, what is irritating me are 1 ) Having a pecking order and seniority built in the selection process. This is not a 1980s goverment office. The objective should be to choose the best player irrespective of when he entered the selection fray. Example - Bumrah and Bhuvi were rested in the test match against Afghanistan. Shardul was the first choice backup. Saini was included only after Shami was declared unfit. Now, who has a better chance of becoming a good test bowler ... most people connected to cricket would say Saini ...he is more accurate, quicker, skiddier and taller. But Shardul got the first nod because he was ahead in the pecking order. 2 ) Not sufficient recognition of special talents either by our Team management or by our selectors Examples - a ) A special talent like Rahul is not getting as many chances as he should. Getting dropped from the ODI squad on occasions even. b ) Shivam Mavi could easily have been selected for the 50-over A-team squad and Shubhman Gill in the 4-day A-team squad. They are special talents for sure. c ) Pant is not a certainty in A-teams even. And why was he not selected for the T20I squad after such a superlative IPL ? Special talents need to be given much more chances. If there is not sufficient recognition of this then what is the need to have ex-cricketers as selectors ? A computer would suffice.

rkt.india Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) These selectors are hell bent on making careers out of mediocre players like they themselves were. They have no eye for talent and doesn't know what is required to be a successful international cricketer.

Should not fast track anyone ever. Pakistan can do that as they dont have much batting talent. In India you have to go through these stages. Nothing wrong with that if done properly. This. But the selectors are still failing to make the right decisions, like selecting Pandey for T20s, just goes to show how clueless they are with their job.

jf1gp_1 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Elevation of U19 player that too a bowler this quick is bold but not new for pak selectors. Inzi i feel is atleast trying to find the spot to fill and then placing a player for the role unlike what we used to see from them in past, select XI and then try to fit them. So good work Inzi.

Great post.....besides no one can perform in all the tournaments (Ranji, duleep, IPL, ATours) in single season , this is pathetic criteria, Heck we have dhoni who is non performer in international t20 for 10 yrs, Raina who always try to save his ass from short balls, Pandey whos half of batting is designed on Msd, Raydu who was completely missing in entire domestic and A tours and then got in to odi based on ipl.Tell me when a non performing international can keep on playing in team inspite of being perennial failure then why do we have such stringent criteria for talented youngsters like Saw,Pant, Gill, Mavi and Nagarkotti. Not that international s who are in team is irreplaceable bloddy they are pathetic and selfish. UrmiSinhaRay, Laaloo, Gollum and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

His domestic record was nothing to talk about. They were looking for someone who could whack the ball around and keep and he got selected. Rest is history.

Temujin Khaghan Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Drafting u19 fast bowlers into the national squad is something Pakistani selectors do on a regular basis.

There was no justification for dropping Karthick over Doni. His keeping does not have that flair to it either. Rainas IPL was good enough and he did score runs too. He was not a bad choice. Problem was the top order. Anyway these things do happen and I expect India to win game 3. UrmiSinhaRay and Suhaan 1 1 Link to comment
