ganeshran Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 (edited) Pie chucker. I said this in match thread. If he can't make it in the side as a pure batsman, don't select him. No movement, just 125 kph length balls. Cannon fodder anywhere in the world Edited December 15, 2019 by ganeshran Link to comment
SK_IH Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I am not sure whether he is a OD cricketer. This braindead TM lead by Kohli could have used him in place of Jadhav and test his batting capabilities while also playing another bowler. Because it's apparent his batting will determine his future. But obviously Kohli went for Jadhav and also bowled him. I hope this match finally puts the nail in the coffin of Jadhav the bowler. He has had his run, got really exposed now. Link to comment

sandsaims Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 We needed bowlers who could bat when Dhoni was in the team. Now we just need good bowlers. Link to comment

We don't necessarily need bowlers who can bat a bit, especially for T20s. Even if we needed one, you don't choose a batsman who can bowl a bit ... to fill the need of a bowler who can bat a bit.

Plus he's earned his spot after doing well in FC cricket and for the A team. Deserves a proper run Just because you can hit a speed of 130 does not make you a bowler. You do understand that or don't you? Link to comment

I agree it does not make him a bowler but do we have any alternatives?Pandya or Stuart Binny playing for India was also a by product of team needing their skill set more than them being super talented.

There is no alternative at that level. Team needs to decide whether they need a specialist bat or bowler. Today they needed a specialist bowler. Allrounders do not exist like I have said before.

I did not compare Dubey to Jadeja. I was just saying Dubey is needed for this team.Both are needed, once Pandya comes back Dubey can go but Jadeja still stays. Link to comment

I am not so sure of Pandya either. Link to comment
