tweaker Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Team should not get too complacent by playing weak team like SL.Our middle order I s certainly untested,We can't keep faith on Yuvraj, Dhoni, Jadeja to finish high profile games.Our team is looking strong on the basis of good form of Rohit,Dhawan& Kohli,if this 3 fails we are in trouble.

tweaker Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 If we get a pitch like Pune,we are out of the tournament. We still can't bat on pitch which is helpful to seamers.We have habit of making bowling superstar ie Mustfizur Rehman.We should not make rookie Pakistani bowler Raees into another Mustfizur express bowling, Adi_91 and Misbah 2 1 Link to comment

So, it is best for us if we don't get a track like Pune in T20s. Edited February 15, 2016 by express bowling Link to comment
vayuu1 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I don't care who wins it but, I want every subcontinent team to beat the living day light out of Bangladesh and beat them so hard ,just to silence their over the top fans and public.

But they have only 2 Asia Cups to show for. How?? Edited February 15, 2016 by Adi_91 Rightarmfast 1 Link to comment

sscomp32 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 T20 as i always say is a lottery. Anybody can win. But india not winning will be a massive Upset. I would absolutely love if the home team loses in final. Oh i cant forget asia cup scenes in last 2 cups. Misbah and Adi_91 1 1 Link to comment

Shivaji bhonsle Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Don't overestimate Negi. He looked good in the last ipl because Dhoni and Raina were struggling. Unnecessary hype. Won't be surprised if he fails. Link to comment

Won't be surprised if he fails. No need to overestimate or underestimate him.If selected in the 11, his role in a T20 would be to come at no.7 and hit a few big shots without taking time to get settled. Also, to bowl a couple of overs, sharing the 5th bowler's role with Pandya and Raina.Just try him in a couple of matches in the Asia Cup and see how he fares. Ofcourse, the ideal time to try new players would have been 6 to 8 months back...but that was not done. Now, it has become necessary because Yuvraj's form is uncertain. He too has to be given chances to bat to test his form. G_B_ and Misbah 1 1 Link to comment
zen Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 For quick reference, Ind's schedulevs. BD on 02/24vs. Pak on 02/27vs, SL on 03/01vs. qualifier on 03/03 (Last game vs. qualifier will help to identify the right combination for the final and in case of NRR scenario) vs. ? on 03/05 (Final) Misbah and express bowling 1 1 Link to comment
vijay50 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I want to know whether dotraj is still good enough in this format. Dhoni should play him at 4 to make a clear call before WC. Raina can play at 6 in Asia cup.Jadeja is not good enough with the bat. So Dhoni can rest him for league stage and test Negi in place of him. Link to comment
G_B_ Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) I personally dont believe the Negi hype either. A few season back he was a bit part CSK player. His IPL stats are poorhttp://www.iplt20.com/teams/chennai-super-kings/squad/53/Pawan-Negi/5 years and 21 matches. I wont judge him on his IPL batting stats for 2015. Cause he was batting really deep in the CSK lineup and i remember he used to have only a few balls per match. He has faced 73 balls in 10 matches. 7.3 balls per match and does have a good strike rate. But his bowling stats are poor He has bowled 30 overs worth of balls or about 3 overs per match. So unless he has has had a really good domestic season. I am trying to figure out why he was propelled into team India. Edited February 15, 2016 by G_B_ Link to comment

Only justification the Negi supporters have is - "Steve Smith was a nobody few seasons back, see where he is now, two years are a lot bro"I think the reason behind choosing Negi is because our T20 team was on the lookout for a player who can come in after the 16th over or so, bat for 10 to 15 balls and score at 150+ SR, hit a couple of sixes if possible and bowl a couple of overs. ( Negi has a SR of 150 + in the last 2 years in IPL )We are not looking for conventionally good players who can build an innings and is a good batsman per se. Pandya is another such player who has already been taken ( he can build an innings too ). Who are the other options we have for this role ? Deepak Hooda definitely. Who else is there ? Question is...why is Hooda not being considered at all ? Edited February 16, 2016 by express bowling Mosher, G_B_, tweaker and 2 others 5 Link to comment
