With Irfan Pathan "injured" - if you were the selector...

[fineleg]

With Irfan Pathan "injured" - if you were the selector, which one bowler would you have picked and why? I like Shami Ahmed's selection but just curious - would you have picked the same or a diff bowler and why? Who is our next in-line best bowler? PS: BTW - curious to know if Pankaj Singh is considered a good bowler for ODIs (for whatever reason selectors wont pick him for any format). This is a separate question. I do like Shami Ahmed selection.

Dinda :nervous: on a serious note Mohit Sharma

Thanks for the serious answer. (lets troll on IPL threads, lets use this thread for real choices). Yes Mohit Sharma is a good suggestion.

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

Munaf Patel, his accuracy and wicket to wicket bowling is breath taking to watch.

[KFC_Zinger]

Munaf Patel' date=' his accuracy and wicket to wicket bowling is breath taking to watch.[/quote'] Why could we not rest all three pacers and test the bench.... I know the team is already selected but these tri series are the best way to judge people

[Old guy]

shami bcos he was wrongfully dropped . also mohit sharma is very good option in odis

Stuart binny would be a like for like replAcement. Best Indian pace bowling all rounder in IPL 2013

[BleedBlue]

Wagh To give that left arm option and he done well list A cricket recently

[jalebi_bhai]

We need someone who is a like-for-like replacement.....how many decent left-arm swing bowlers do we really have??

[superstar]

There was a rumor on crapinfo that either Munaf or Nehra wanted a players union when BCCI refused permission for SLPL. I think they have both worn the Indian jersey for the last time.

I think with Jadeja playing as allrounder - selectors may have looked at Shami Ahmed as a better quality bowler than Stuart Binny.

[JaFanatic]

i would have tried sid kaul

Awana :P

Awana :P

Awana,Dinda,Munaf Imagine the fielding and the bowling....we will break the 1000 run barrier :two_thumbs_up:

[Lord]

Awana' date='Dinda,Munaf Imagine the fielding and the bowling....we will break the 1000 run barrier :two_thumbs_up:[/quote'] and Ishant is a terrific fielder?:hysterical: the bowling is main thing,n I'm confident he can do much better than Ishant if given chances,specially in slog overs.He can be hidden in the field,just like we hide Ishant

[express bowling]

Dhawal Kulkarni. I feel Dhawal bowls good areas and is not a brainless bowler. This is very important in LOIs. Also, he has good pace and bounce and can move the ball both ways. He is perhaps the most complete pacer in India now and has played quite a bit of domestic cricket. He looks like a finished product and not work-in-progress.

[Clarke]

I'd keep langda Irfan & drop pissant instead :hysterical:

[tweaker]

Mohit Sharma,

[Cricashfaq]

I'll go with Mohit Sharma over Shami Ahmed

[ravishingravi]

Shami
