maniac Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Don't get me wrong,I like him.Hardworking cricketer who gives it his best shot...seems like he has a good head on his shoulders.....has a compact batting technique for SC conditions....decent spinner in domestics and will have a decent spell at the international level. But is he a long term solution? I definitely don't see the IT factor in him....is he good enough to justify a spot on bowling or batting alone? Same question we ask for so many "allrounders"...can he make it into the team as a batsman alone? can he make it into the team as a bowler alone? Link to comment

It is as meaningful as it gets man. If Rohit can play the number of tests he has played Jayant surely deserves a longer run. He has already shown great temperament with the bat in barely 3-4 matches and does his job as a support bowler. Already contributes much more than Rohit. speedheat and Rasgulla 2 Link to comment

speedheat Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Looks very limited can't even turn the ball on this minefield I would have gone for kuldeep over him seeing ausies struggled against lakahan sandakan Link to comment

If you point out Dhoni he will accuse you of being desh drohi and a scumbag. Oh and he will downvote your posts. Link to comment

You didn't before Mishra in the do not troll with names.....waiting for @Cricketics in 3....2......1 Anyway on topic on a green pitch or on a minefield 4 main bowlers are enough to pick 20 wickets....but you need a longer batting line up to counter these pitches tailor made for bowlers. Jayant doesn't add a lot here Link to comment
kosingh Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I suspect he is not a long term prospect. Not only can he not turn the ball on a helpful wicket, but he also seems to lack control over his bowling. Too many loose deliveries, that make it impossible go build up pressure. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 As a spin bowling all rounder he is good. Al though ill prefer kuldeep over him as 3rd spinner but then there has to be a call taken on 2nd seamers btw shankar or pandya or u go with proper seamer and that weakens ur batting. All this permutation n combinations will start to affect saha's chances soon as well. Jayant is a long term answer yes for sure, coz we need to start looking at all rounders for future n he is one.

He is not good enough bat to last on minefields,bouncy pitches or green tops...sure he has decent technique on neutral on flat pitches. As a bowler he can't do much on minefields,how is he going to deliver as a back up main spinner in case of an injury to Ashwin/Jadeja on most tracks? You don't play all-rounders just for the heck of it. Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Agreed, also we don't need 3 spinners or most tracks, as one spinner will always be underbowled. Would rather have an extra bat especially in low scoring matches. maniac 1 Link to comment

You don't play all-rounders just for the heck of it. I think more then questining him on minefield we shud ques someone like rahane Yes as a bowler he shud be questioned, thats were i wanted kuldeep but his batting is below jayant. So we are compromising in every way. Neways its to early to count this guy out, he is initial years.....he wud improve and has all the skill to. As an all rounder he wud only improve with time. N all the All rounder we have are pretty much bits n pieces type only. Its not that we have a hidden kallis somewere N playing proper 6 batsman well we dnt have the luxury of part timers anymore. If its a rank turner next game get in nair , as such pitches can make a part timer very effective. Link to comment
The Realist Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Ishant Sharma has not been a solution for anything for half a decade. If he can continuously get a long rope I fail to see why others like Yadav should not get at least half those opportunities. Edited February 24, 2017 by The Realist Link to comment

He'll get hit for runs but will never give up and keep bowling. Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 What I don't get is batting him at no.9 If he is played as an all rounder should atleast come in at no.7 Otherwise it's a bit meaningless and better to play another genuine spinner. Link to comment
Lord Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Give him 70 tests ,I'm sure he'll start to improve :P Link to comment
