chewy Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I had high hopes for Surya Kumar Yadav, for ODIs and T20s, strong built, aggressive batting approach and handy medium pace and good fielder...but has flattered to deceive after excellent start to his domestic career..still young so has time on his side...playing on borrowed time and will probably not get lucrative offers in next draft Ultimate_Game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy bats way too low - 6 or thereabouts - to make a difference too many times. When likes of Tare and Pappu Patel are opening the innings, I'm sure some franchise should've picked him to bat up the order. Same with Deepak Hooda. The guy always seems to bat too low. Franchises have to identify talented batsmen and bat them up the order. You can't expect batsmen like Suryakumar or Hooda to bat lower down and make a difference consistently.

SecondSlip Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Praveen Kumar scoring a half century with the ball yesterday, now both Vohra and Surya scoring single digits. This is what happens when failures at the domestic level are picked ahead of performers. Other than better umpires, IPL needs better talent scouts as well Edited April 15, 2017 by SecondSlip New guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

express bowling Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) We have to check performers in domestic T20 , SMA Trophy for this purpose. Also some List A performers. FC perfomers are not that relevant unless we are talking about a high SR FC batter like Pant. Edited April 16, 2017 by express bowling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, Shardul Thakur was in red hot form in VH Trophy but missed a few games to Dipak Chahar. There are other examples too. speedheat, tweaker and SecondSlip 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Yusuf Pathan has a career SR of 146 in IPL at an average of 30. There is no other Indian player who has scored more than 1000 runs, averages over 30 and strikes at more than 140. rahulrulezz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indian domestic players who excel in domestic LOIs (List A & SMA Trophy) should be rewarded with IPL contracts, not players who fail. Players like Arvind, Harbhajan, Vohra, Surya etc never excel in our domestic LOI cricket yet they are the ones with IPL contracts while much better player were unsold and now doing nothing for these 2 months. IPL should be Team India players + Top foreigner players + Top domestic players express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondSlip Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 9 hours ago, Lord said: Mandeep Singh,Mayank Aggarwal,Chawla,Tare Mandeep - Good player in our List A competitions. Was highest run scorer in VH trophy last season. Also scored a match winning knock in his last match for India "A" in quadragular series final against Aus "A" last year. Agarwal - Has very good overall stats in List A which includes a batting average of 40+ with a strike rate of 95. Looks like he isn't quite international standard at the moment though Chawla - Agree, but looks like Kuldeep is cutting his rope slowly but surely Tare - Hasn't been given a long rope. Barely player for SRH last season and played only 2 matches for DD this season since Iyer was injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this guy really one of the best allrounders in the country!? I mean, I know Binny is bad but this guy is atleast 10x worse! (How is that even possible ) Binny is a superior batsman and bowler than this guy and that's saying something! I don't think Bhatia even plays domestic cricket for Delhi anymore, yet he's been given long ropes with various franchises in IPL! What do they see in this bits and pieces cricketer! He's almost 40 years old yet he's blocking a young allrounder like Aparajith's spot in the Pune team! Check Bhatia's FC stats... Averages around 47 with bat, 28 with ball... How can a Binny with below 30 average is superior batsman? And Bhatia has been one of the most economic bowler in IPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
