Ultimate_Game Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 1 hour ago, Lord said: Dhoni too Dhoni should have played to help with the transition. I wouldn't want to have a youngster thrown at the deep end directly. I would've played Pant as a batsman the way Aus played Gilchrist initially when Healy was still around. Eventually you get Pant to take over. Also, I would want Pant to play alongside somebody like Dhoni so Pant can be groomed by one of the greatest wkt keeper batsmen in odis. Rahane is simply not good enough and Yuvraj is past it and doesn't offer anything at this point (batting, bowling or fielding). Dhoni is still a pretty good wkt keeper and a decent odi batsman.

WeStMiDz Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Yuvi is there after his last series exploits so one of Pandey/Jadhav will miss out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree about Rahane but Yuvi has easily looked better than Dhoni in last few months.Anyway I dont want either As for keeping,Pant is a good keeper too. Grooming etc can be done from the sidelines.You dont waste a spot for that.Same argument was given for Sachin lol Laaloo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
express bowling Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Barring injuries, I see very little practical chance of either Pandey or Pant getting in the playing 11. The team I expect ( not my choice ) Rohit Rahul / Dhawan Kohli Yuvraj Dhoni Kedar Hardik Jadeja Bhuvi Shami Bumrah Reserves - Dhawan / Rahul, Pandey, Pant, Ashwin, Umesh. will most probably be our team in the early part of CT.

But once he faces better bowlers he looks clueless. Do you recall the odi series against Aus where Johnson made him look like a tailender or the WT20 or the Asia Cup? Yuvraj is done. Dhoni shouldn't be around in T20s but in odis he's a much better bet than Yuvraj. Get Manish Pandey in there with Pant as an opener and once Pant has settled in, he can take over from Dhoni - hopefully by the time WC rolls in.

Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Lets wait till the the end part of ipl....after every match there is thread Players like dhoni, rohit, dhawan, rahul n all shudnt go pant, pandey, gambhir(srsly him) shud go A lot of time is left, form n fitness will change a lot in next 1 mnths..... Knowing our courageous selectors and brave indian team mngmt mindset.......there wud hardly be many bold decsions in case of injuries. In that case also many of us knws chances of bhajji, gambo, karthik are bright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) 11, for today Rahul Pant (wk) Kohli Panday Rana Krunal Hardik Ashwin / Kuldeep Bhuvi / Umesh Shami Bumrah Highlights: * Pant to open and keep. I haven't seen him bat recently but going by the hype on this forum (trusting the fellow ICFers' judgment) * #4 baton passes to Panday * Dynamic trio of MI - Rana, Krunal and Hardik (difficult to lose) * Team picked with an eye on the ODI WC in 2019 Edited April 17, 2017 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vvvslaxman Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Pandey and Jadhav are clutch players. Hardik is a certainty. Such an useful player. I am not sure if we should play Ashwin at all. Can we not try someone else. Kuldeep is a hitter too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lannister Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Rohit Rahul Kohli Pandey Jadhav Pant Hardik Jadeja Kumar Thampi Bumrah We don't even need to play games with this team. ICC will just hand us over the CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beetle Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Based on Ipl performance? We are just into 4-5 matches per team.There is a long way to go. People who are performing can flop in the rest of the matches...others can do well . We should wait for 10-12 matches per team to get a better idea. Hope no performer gets injured this ipl. express bowling and Magneto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
