One thing for sure- there is a generational disconnect between mentality of selectors who are vying for safety first approach & the new generation of expressive players propping up like Pant, Shaw, Iyer, Gill.

Problem with Shaw and Gill is that they're both openers and that position is already locked. Shaw hasn't played ODIs and Gill failed to impress in the few chances he got.

They must have given their consent but what are selectors doing ?? I don't think it is just Shastri and Kohli. These selectors have shown no forward thinking any time during their tenure.

And kohli , Shashtri did. whatever good selection has happened in test or regarding kul-cha you always give credit to kohli-shastri and here you are blaming selectors alone. Weren't kohli the one during nz series said there is no doubt rayadu is going to be our no:4. :no:

Sidharth Monga 

"Four extra fast bowlers will travel with the team. They will serve the dual purpose of bowling in the nets and also stay as standby should there be an injury. The bowlers haven't yet been named"

 

 

Standby system works only if there is any long term injury to any pacer and he has to be removed from the squad.

 

Standby system won't work if a pacer misses a couple of matches due to any niggle and is not intended to be removed from the squad.

Kaul

Harshal Patel

Kulkarni 

and 

Unadkat?

What happens in the case Shami, Bhuvi or Bumrah gets injured and are missing for one or two games, who will replace them in the 11, are they banking on Pandya to be the third seamer.

exactly, it is really baffling. What is the need for Jadeja, when you have two front line spinners already.

Have said it even in past and will say again that going with just 3 pacers is joke. Bhuvi half time looks like has niggle.

 

Australia went with 5 pacers and we went with 3 pacers (3 ar, 3 spinners)

 

We needed Saini for England conditions in place of jadeja.

Is there a rule they should carry only 15 not 16? I would also want another pacer.
