Bhuvi not playing tomorrow :(


Recommended Posts

Bhuvi has to play. if it's a rain curtailed match with reduced overs, we need Bhuvi to bowl like he does in T20s. Plus the conditions are supposed to be overcast and Bhuvi is a demon in such conditions.

 

Other worry i have is that Umesh and Shami lose it when batsmen go after them or get hit for a couple of boundaries, especially Umesh and hence his high RR. In a rain shortened match this is more than likely to happen and I would be happy to have someone like Bhuvi to partner Bumrah when the going gets tough. IMO our team should be...

 

Rohit

Dhawan

Kohli

Karthik/Yuvraj (preferably Karthik)

Dhoni

Jadhav

Pandya

Jadeja

Bhuvi

Shami/Umesh

Bumrah

 

Given it's going to be overcast/cloudy and Pakistan struggle more against pace instead of spin (especially off spin), I would bench Ashwin and go with one more pacer. If you need to bowl spin, you have Jadeja and Kedar should be able to give you a few overs of off spin as well the way he did against England.

Kumar makes more sense than Umesh...

 

Shami and Umesh aren't good at the death, but Kumar is, at least based off IPL. 

 

Shami+Kumar with the new ball

 

Kumar + Bumrah at the death

 

The balance of overs in the middle with spinners + remaining overs of pacers

Not buying this. Bhuvi, Bumrah, Pandya, Ash, Jaddu is the most likely lineup. Umesh may come in for Ash.

 

Bhuvi should be a certified pick for his death bowling and can also get some movement with the new ball and can also bowl economically on a batting track. He has also done well in CT and test series in England and most recently in IPL. Cant see him being left out for Shami or Umesh.

Gavaskar on NDTV live just suggested Shami to be dropped just because he hasnt got enough overs. 

Twitter message on op is worth toilet paper

I agree with Gavaskar on both Rahane and the three pace bowlers.

What is troubling is they may not play karthick. I have no idea in which universe yuvraj is better than Karthick.

They need to find room for Bhuvi.

Moron is a person who hangs on to the past n a looser n a captain who ridiculed bowlers who have turned out brilliant under Virat, Who said this , we want fast bowlers or bowlers regards to Umesh, lick your wounds, you looser like ur crush Dhoni.

Ganguly was saying he prefers Shami, Bumrah, and Umesh if we choose to play 3, but he prefers if we play a full 5 bowlers.
