India need a England like overhaul to save odi cricket


Recommended Posts

To groom youngsters, Dhawan rohit kohli need not play forthcoming bilaterals,this has hurt us in the longer run in our build up to this wc

Bairstow,butler,stokes have been around for 8-9 years ,it takes time,we should be patient with Pant,Gill,Shaw, Abhishek Sharma,Mayank,Kishan etc

Same applies to new bowlers,for God's sake now please go past bhuvi,guy is a nothing bowler

Rohit is FTB and Dhawan is inconsistent. Both are getting old. They should retire within the next 1 year. Ideally the future team should be:

 

Shaw

Agarwal

Kohli

Gill

(Abhishek Sharma)

Pant

Pandya

Kuldeep

( another young spinner)

Mavi/Nagarkoti/Saini (one of them as 3rd back up pacer)

Bumrah

Rohit i think not going anywhere,i have a strange feeling,Kohli may loose his captaincy if Rohit looks at it his as his own,Rohit has huge power or support behind him,being MI captain and having won 4 ipl trophies further strengthens his claim so he is not going anytime soon atlest as long as he makes one or two hundreds per year

Dhawan is a goner,they will be forced(i hope) to make changes, Bowling too needs a rewamp,cant burn out Bumrah in meaningless bilaterals,no.4,5,6 are still vacant,Bhuvi is probably out, Chahal and Kuldeep may find a competitor in Rahul Chahar,Sundar etc

Need this ASAP. Make Rohit the LOI captain. MI has groomed  youngsters with aggressive mindset like Pandya bros and Bumrah. Even had the guts to drop a veteran like Yuvraj for Kishan. Backed guys like Makarande.

 

Remember gave Rayudu a shot too and help him make a mark  when he was still relatively young.

 

We need a total overhaul. This is how you chase a 220 type score. Not take it to the last ball and hit a 6

Indian cricket management and players don't have that culture or appetite to change, it's very very very risk averse

Its only thanks to Lalit Modi's vision IPL happened, BCCI morons were busy trying to kill T20

 

When has India ever revolutionised the game

WI did it, Aus in 2000s did it, SL through 1996 WC and now England

 

Heck how many int Indian batsmen are capable playing reverse hits and switch hits for sixes, Still India yet to produce 150 kph bowler

 

To revolutionise you need backing from grassroots to Indian national team management 

 

Even after 2011-2012 white washes in England and Australia, things have hardly changed, batsmen still struggle against swing, bounce and pace on lively pitches. 

 

Mediocre is all we can settle for with Indian cricket relative the resources and player pool at disposal 

 

It was just sickening to watch DK, Pant, Pandya as our middle order in a WC SF, none average 40 plus, none of them have an ODI century

A total overhaul would require even Rohit to be booted out. :giggle:

Bairstow is not more aggressive than Rohit. He starts of the same way. May be marginally quicker but gets 100s not mega 100s like Rohit so kind of evens out
