asterix Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 We really want an off spinner who can keep things simple but bowls potent orthodox off spin with discipline. We need somebody on whom we can rely for a long time, now that Ashwin has gone downhill... Please suggest some good upcoming young options... Link to comment
asterix Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Washington Sundar ?He’s very straight forward... not sure if he spins a lot.. Need somebody who can give a good tweak...but can be tried... Somebody like Rajesh Chauhan... Link to comment

express bowling Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 We need to groom Kuldeep. He turns the ball into the right hander too ... and has better chance of succeeding out of Asia as he is a wrist-spinner. saik, Mosher, Clarke and 6 others 2 7 Link to comment

He turns the ball into the right hander too ... and has better chance of succeeding out of Asia as he is a wrist-spinner. Even if he goes for runs,he should be backed.A good leggie can really complement our seam attack. Mosher and express bowling 2 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Rightnow nobody stands out. Ashwin is still the best off spinner. Given his batting prowess it allows Kohli to play 5 bowlers. There is no mandatory we must play an offie. If anything proper leg spinner will be more handy. Link to comment
Khota Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Irrespective of the outcome Ashwin needs to sit out and jadeja plays for the spot. Link to comment

R.D forever Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) Let's not get carried away. Ashwin is still the best off spinner we have. For now he should be replaced by Jadeja. But dropping him from the squad is stupid Edited September 2, 2018 by R.D forever GolGappe and CG 1 1 Link to comment
zen Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Kuldeep has the qualities that can be leveraged on to turn him in to a "most conditions" spinner Link to comment
OpeningBatsman Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) jayant yadav might be pretty ordinary but he didnt get many chances after the first few games. He did decently with the ball and very well with thr bat lower down the order. I think he scored a 100 Edited September 2, 2018 by OpeningBatsman Adorable Fan 1 Link to comment
sandsaims Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) Ashwin is a huge failure in anything outside India even when it is spinning. Edited September 2, 2018 by sandsaims Link to comment

Gollum Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 No rule that we need an offie in the squad. Ashwin should be benched for 6 months at least, let Jadeja and Kuldeep play against WI and Aus. We can take a call after next year's WC. Right now no outstanding offie I can think of, Jayant Yadav is an inferior version of Ashwin but he can be the 3rd option for home tests, others aren't suited for test cricket. Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Jadeja replaces him. Why right arm offspinner? Link to comment

MCcricket Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Jalaj Saxena has been roughly dealt with, he s ores a lot of runs and takes wkts consistently, has a good whippy a tion and turns the ball, always a topper among wkts and runs in domestics. Link to comment
