ShoonyaSifar Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 India have decided to rest Jasprit Bumrah for the forthcoming ODI series in Australia and the New Zealand tour that comprises five ODIs and three T20Is in January-February. Mohammed Siraj was named Bumrah's replacement for those series while Siddarth Kaul was added to the squad for the T20I series in New Zealand next month. ODI squad for Australia and New Zealand: Virat Kohli (capt), Rohit Sharma (vice-capt), KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Ambati Rayudu, Dinesh Karthik, Kedar Jadhav, MS Dhoni (WK), Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Siraj, Khaleel Ahmed, Mohammed Shami T20I squad for New Zealand: Virat Kohli (capt), Rohit Sharma (vice-capt), KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik, Kedar Jadhav, MS Dhoni (WK), Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Siraj, Khaleel Ahmed, Siddarth Kaul http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/25711005/jasprit-bumrah-rested-mohammed-siraj-siddarth-kaul-called-australia-nz-odis-t20is Kaul is our back up pacer!! Siraj perhaps picked for the wrong format again. While they made changes to the team, should have added Pant in these squads as well :( Real McCoy and Tendulkar1996 2 Link to comment
Popular Post Mosher Posted January 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2019 Good decision to rest Bumrah. Siraj keeps getting picked for the wrong format. He will go for runs and will be dropped again. Real McCoy, ExtremeBrainfade, Tendulkar1996 and 8 others 1 10 Link to comment

express bowling Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Siraj may not be ideal for LOIs ... but at least Chahar, Kaul and Co. have not been selected for ODIs. That is a relief. Adi BB and vishalvirsingh 1 1 Link to comment
express bowling Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Pant should have been added to the NZ ODI squad at least. Mosher, SK_IH and raki05 3 Link to comment
ShoonyaSifar Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Checked Siraj's List A record - 31 matches, 56 wickets@23, with a ER of 5.5 and SR of 25.1 Not too bad actually. T20s look to be his weakest suit and thankfully he has not been picked for those. Could still do relatively better in ODIs. Link to comment
GautiMaan Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 That's a good bowling unit Just like the Test Matches some fresh blood will improve the batting and we will see a much stronger side. However whether that will happen before the World Cup is the big question. Link to comment
flamy Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) So Kaul is still in the reckoning. I don't think he has the stuff though Edited January 8, 2019 by flamy express bowling and velu 1 1 Link to comment
Popular Post speedheat Posted January 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) This pathetic trundling university graduate kaul keeps getting chances . Siraj again picked for wrong format, isn't cut out for odis, gives lot of width and buckle under pressure. Mayank looked in great touch and confidence should have been there in place of kl Rahul.

fineleg Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Md. Siraj - WRONG FORMAT - should be in Longer Format, limited overs not his cup of tea. Link to comment

gakgupta Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 SIRAJ....wrong format.... this guy will loose confidence.... selectors should have went for rajpoot or chowdhary.. Even SAINI could have done a good job... Link to comment
CoverDrive Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Our pace attack will be Bhuvi, Shami and Khaleel and Siraj maybe backup in case one of these fails. Pitches are likely to be very flat so they may go with 2 spinners and Pandya so only 2 pacers may play Link to comment
Suhaan Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Wah re chewt selectors,keep giving moments of buffoonery Siraj when was setting world on fire wasn't getting picked even in the squad Now he is been picked for lois,that too in small parks of NZ,where they will shatter his remaining confidence by mauling him to dust, At least they spared us by not picking him in t20s Well Kaul seems to be fulfilling the trundler quota,when we have zaleel in the ranks Jimmy Cliff, express bowling, Ankit_sharma03 and 5 others 8 Link to comment
tweaker Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Shami should have also been rested speedheat, Real McCoy, Suhaan and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment

Stan AF Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 NZ batsmen will be making mincemeat out of this bowling line up. I will put more faith on kuldeep & Chahal. velu, Suhaan and Real McCoy 3 Link to comment
