beetle Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I think the selectors were more focused on having two totally different teams than two good teams. I don't see players who are part of both teams.....except KL Rahul Are the tours over lapping in terms of dates? sscomp32 and tweaker 2 Link to comment

asterix Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 M$D should be careful to go this team... Might end up denting more his reputation.... To think that he was not aware of this team will be foolish. He's a special liking of Bhumrah... If Bhumrah is in the team then this team has been approved by M$D... tweaker, sscomp32, Lannister and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

beetle Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 This team will fast forward Dhoni 's retirement plans. Link to comment
beetle Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 No Mohit Sharma ..... He has done well in IPL ...at least better than Unarkat.He has improved as a bowler. Link to comment
WC2011INDIA Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) The captain Dhoni, with 275 ODIs and 68 T20Is, has more experience than the other 15 players combined - 83 ODIs and 28 T20Is. And I laugh at the selectors for calling this a young side, when clearly there are some 30+ year old players too. Edited May 23, 2016 by WC2011INDIA Link to comment
TheWall Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Faiz Fazal....??? who... I think this is BCCI's way of surprising Zimbawe..... Also, there no supply of Biriyani in Zimbawe, hence Ambati has been selected to supply Biriyani to the team on the tour... express bowling, tweaker, sscomp32 and 1 other 4 Link to comment
The Realist Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 "Dhoni has retired from the longer format and we selectors felt that this is the best opportunity for youngsters to have someone like Dhoni, who has ample experience," Sandeep Patil, the chairman of selectors, said. "Dhoni himself was very keen to tour with the youngsters so I think it is a very good sign and a good help for the youngsters, who are going to be part of the Zimbabwe tour. Fazal, 30, is the only player in the squad without a current IPL contract - he was part of Rajasthan Royals until 2011 - and is presently playing league cricket in England. Just repeating the same word does not equal reality. And selecting a player who is playing LEAGUE cricket in Eng - just wow Patil needs to go - clueless selector. sscomp32, asterix and tweaker 3 Link to comment

Rishi Dhawan Dhawal Kulkarni Barinder Sran Jaydev Unadkat And Rayudu and Axar Patel??? This squad has Dhoni's dirty fingerprints all over it. Just so so bad. The guy barely bowled Rishi dhawan last time he was picked , stop talking rubbish . btw which paaaast bowler do you approve of ? sscomp32 and Rasgulla 2 Link to comment

philcric Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 A few bizarre selections there. But there are also a few good selections to look forward to like KL Rahul, M Pandey, K Nair, M singh, J Bumrah, B Sran and Y Chahal. sscomp32 and tweaker 2 Link to comment
Mosher Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Bumrah has been playing non-stop. What was the need for him to play this tour? We have found one really good pacer for LOI's after trying many bowlers and now he will be run into the ground and will probably get injured. Where is the rotation policy for the bowlers? sscomp32, express bowling, tweaker and 2 others 5 Link to comment
asterix Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Either the team is forced upon Dhoni or he's part of the selection process... There's no way that he'll not know which team he's captaining... I can understand Dhoni fans preparing the grounds to blame the selectors or individual/group of players in case of any embarrassment... Either way they should question Dhoni for agreeing to lead a side like this. maniac, express bowling, Lannister and 1 other 4 Link to comment
