vvvslaxman Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 We need someone who can fizz across the blade. Chahal is not that kind of a bowler. I am still trying to look for someone who can land outside the leg stump and the ball leaves the batsman's the off stump. Our spinners are good. Nobody anywhere close to Shane Warne. This is the best way we can win test series in SENA countries. Huge turning balls. Kuldeep is too slow on certain surfaces. Otherwise his landing, revs are really good. Now that world cup is done. Test matches take the precedence now. Sure we can use Jamodi series to groom youngsters. To be a world beating test side we need to have a strong reserve unit. Link to comment
mani sha Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Think to win u need fast bowlers Shane warne was effective cos of fast bowlers also u need good total . And solid batters like pujara and a smart captain and coach and ... playing spinners at Sydney not green lords alas - most wishes will remain unfulfilled chahal bowls very well fyi Link to comment
R!TTER Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Imagine if fixer dropped Kumble after that one tour of England, leggies need patience lots of patience & looks like Brat & our forum experts just don't have it mani sha and helperononline 1 1 Link to comment

Riju23 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 There are clearly a number of holes in our team. I don't entirely disagree with OP. I think Chahal is solid but Kuldeep is a better wicket taker (Chahal appears to get much of his success from Batsmen mishitting vs Kuldeep who tends to beat the batsman more). Additionally, having both of them plus Bumrah guarantees such a GD long tail. There WILL be tight matches in both tests and ODIs where you need some runs from no.9 or no. 10. I don't think we should be playing both of them. I honestly like Kuldeep in test matches. I think he proved his worth in Aus. Yes there are certain surfaces where you might want a fingerspinner vs wrist spinner and the team needs to be cognizant of that and adjust accordingly. BUT, the key to SENA wins, as someone mentioned, is wickets from the seamers, along with batting vs the new ball. rahulrulezz 1 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 Kuldeep is a china man bowler. So he is always going to add some value as he is unique. But is there a case for a right arm leggie in Tests? If so Chahal is not the answer. Right now we get by with Ash and Jaddu. But overseas test series need more wicket taking options. That is where wristies come in the picture. Link to comment
Vijy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 In home conditions, both Ash and Jaddu are top-notch with Kuldeep serving as an able backup. Abroad in SENA, if we play only 1 spinner I'd rather have Jaddu. he will keep an end tied up, he will field masterfully, and he bats well these days (avg of 42+ since jan 2016 in tests). Kuldeep will be the back-up. against weaker teams, spinners like rahul chahar and gopal should be given a go. Link to comment
Adorable Fan Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) They should start looking at Rahul chahar so that he can learn and grow as a cricketer. I feel he will be the vital cog for us in WC23 if groomed properly. Edited July 17, 2019 by Adorable Fan Vijy 1 Link to comment
Vk1 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 well.. Kuldeep doesnt seem to get bounce like Yasir Shah, Nathan Lyon to succeed in Sena. We should groom Rahul Chahar and Ravi Bishnoi.. dont make them play in India A matches and wait for them to succeed.. those matches are usually 4 day games i guess so spinners wont be so effective. Play these RLB type Link to comment
Stan AF Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I've been saying this for many months now. With three fast bowlers we can create enough rough outside the wicket for wrist spinners to exploit, especially against left handers. Leg spinners work irrespective of the surface. In SENA tours, wrist/leggies are a must. Going by existing evidence our existing off spinners haven't won any games outside India. It is time for the TM to have a look and bring in wristies into the test team. VT87 1 Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 present options 1. Kuldeep - struggling with form n confidence 2. Rahul chahar- Not ready for red ball as he bowls a lot of loose stuff playing in ranji , but shud be given more games for India-A 3. Gopal- Dont think he is a great red ball option but can be tried in India-A games 4. Chahal- definately not a red ball bowler 5. Markhande- more of a googly bowler 6. Bishnoi- toooo young , also looks more of a white ball bowler Another problem is selectors are just giving chances to finger spinners for India- A - nadeem, gowtham, Axar Atleast we shud have tried Gopal Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Rahul Chahar, Ravi Bishnoi. I'd still like to see Kuldeep playing one D/N test in Australia. Some reports said he was practicing increasing his pace. Left arm wrist spin is always an advantage. He only needs to increase his pace. He is 10× talented than Yasir & Shadab. Link to comment

His form n confidence is diff and so will be australian batsman . I like kuldeep but 1st he needs to get his form n confidence back Ashwin i still feel is our best spinner around the world. In his intial cycle also batsman hardly put runs on board for him to attack even and even kumble didnt have a good record overseas for most of his career until last phase Edited August 8, 2020 by Ankit_sharma03 Link to comment

Bowled miserably on a slow pitch in centurion test 2018. It's time we stop overrating him. Jaddu is better. Link to comment
