rtmohanlal Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Don't think Shankar's inclusion is a wise idea. He is still a rookie at international level.I would prefer only 2 all rounders at best, and if 3 are considered , would go with Pandya,Jadhav & Jadeja .Jadeja may not be a brilliant one day bowler, but he can save runs & pick wkts with his fielding Link to comment

Pls give him some slack.... He just played one bloody T20 match...that too all important final...He came at the dearth overs.... Yes...he failed....but you need just one match to decide the fate of a player... Dravid thinks he is handy allrounder....I am sure, you know more than him velu 1 Link to comment
gakgupta Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 3 hours ago, test fan said: Playing with India A or playing with India is a lot different .when u understand this u know ans Yes..totally agree But all our players came from first class cricket and A tours is the acid test to check, if they are good enough at the highest level... MSD, Virat, Rahana, Rohit, Dhawan, Shami ....list is endless......All these guyz proved in the A tours before they were drafted in.... Yes!! Player needs to raise his level of expertise in intl matches but we dont know that until he is given a chance. Vijay Shankar has passed the acid test of A tour...that too in alien conditions...so he deserve his chances... Having said all this, Kohli will drop him in the next match as Pandya is back....and i totally support that... But he should get his chance (may be after 3rd ODI) when kohli is rested and slot opens up... Link to comment
speedheat Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Shankars bowling is crap. Just runs in and rolls his arm nothing special. Not good enough to be tagged as an alrounder. UrmiSinhaRay, Khota, test fan and 4 others 2 5 Link to comment
anish2tweet Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 With Hardik slated to be jettisoned to NZ, Ind could play a combination of 3 ARs / bits and pieces players Rohit Dhawan Gill Dhoni Jadhav Shankar Hardik Bhuvi Kuldeep Shami (if not rested) / pacer Chahal Instead of Shankar, play Jadeja.He at least will take 1 wicket. Superb Fielding to bootSent from my CPH1819 using Tapatalk UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Khota Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Can India play 3 all rounders - yes Can India afford to play 3 all rounders - No Tendulkar1996 and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment
Tendulkar1996 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Vijay shankar doesnt deserve the tag of intl level allrounder. UrmiSinhaRay and Khota 1 1 Link to comment
carnish Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 It is outrageous to send Pandya to NZ in between a series ... Especially since the team is Winning.. his presence there can create a lot of problems.. people will again be asked to comment and God knows how it may impact the dressing room atmosphere.. I hope we do not discard Vijay without his own mistake first.. he has bowled decently till now if nothing great and has not had a chance with the bat yet UrmiSinhaRay and flamy 1 1 Link to comment
TNAmarkFromIndia Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Vijay Shankar sent up the order. Batting well considering the situation that India was in. Rightarmfast and velu 2 Link to comment

Unfortunately for him, Dhoni and Rayudu won't be dropped and Karthik is a back-up for Dhoni. Shankar is a back-up for Pandya and both won't play in the XI together. Link to comment

We've clearly shown against Aus that we can win a Test series with 4 bowlers. Shankar's addition to the Test side (when it happens) would mean having a solid batsman who can chip in with a few overs to give the top 4 bowlers a break... Unlike Pandya, whose role is neither clearly defined as a bowler or a batsman in Tests. Link to comment

Probably after the WC though I think Shankar should not be a back-up or replacement for Pandya. Pandya can sometimes bowl 10 good overs whereas Shankar can only be used at a certain time to get overs out of someone when the batsmen are not looking to attack. He's not a wicket-taking bowler at all. He can come in as a No. 5/No. 6 batsman but he can't be picked as the 5th bowler like Pandya. Link to comment

GautiMaan Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Shastri made a point in his interview which I particularly liked the idea of padding the batting by playing more batsmen/allrounders which means Hardik could bat at number 8 which will allow us to recover from early setbacks,ask others to go hard since Dhoni is going to be Dhoni.
