and their batting against spin bowling has become worrysome even though the next batch nair, rahul and pant looks good i hope the next batch doesnt disappoint against spin 

 

Ranji Trophy is dishing out only green tracks these days.

 

There needs to be a mixture of 40 % to 45 % bouncy / green tracks ( as that was our weak point ) ,  30 % to 25 %  flat tracks and 30 % spinning pitches to develop all-round batters and bowlers.

Shaw reminds me of Lara in terms of backlift. India looks to be miles ahead of England.

Last year's Ranji matches were not telecasted before SF, so I am not 100 % sure.

 

For 4 or 5 years before that, we played mostly on green tracks.

Hope someone like Rahane is not selected for odi's were he is useless, instead he shud play domestic where someone like Shaw can bat along side him and learn a gr8 deal

Teams like Delhi n jharkhand wud have benefitted greatly by dhoni n gambhir playing domestic cricket 

 

Rana wud have learned a lot by playing one season with sehwag and then he has 3 international spinners like jayant, mishra n chahal in his domestic side

Calling it now, Gill will be a lineup lynchpin.

chahar/kuldeep yadav bowling in tandem on a 4th day wankhede pitch is jizzworthy. I hope it happens soon.

Need to find a better 3rd seamer than Yash Thakur

all three spinners looked good yesterday,chahar is definitely international material but abhishek can be a great limited overs option if his batting is also at par with his bowling,i loved his variations

watching the replay of the game. Very slow pitch. Ball is just not getting up after pitching form pacers.

I thought Anukul was the most impressive spinner of all. I have not seen many SLAs impart so much revs on the ball as this guy. Abhishek looks like a total journeyman as of now. Chahar looks the most ready among all three, supremely accurate for a leggy at his age. And unlike the phony Chahal, Chahar flights and spin the ball.

Anukul is an alrounder and has batted impressively in previous U19 games.

Nagarkoti is the quickest U19 bowler I have seen from India.

 ishant too was u19 when he touched 150k in aus ,though he was playing for the main team

yes, he was playing international cricket, not U19. He was not as quick when he played for India u19. On his test debut too, he started as 130-135 K and suddenly, bowled same pace at Sydney too, he picked up some rhythm and pace from Adelaide test onwards. Even that Perth spell was only 135-138. Then he clocked up to 147 K in Adelaide and hit 150 in ODIs.

Ishan Porel

Yes, he is there in the squad. Lets see how he does.

[Sachinism]

Just caught some of the post match show on Sky. Prithvi looks amazing off the backfoot. The timing on those shots was unreal, the pundits mentioned how well he picks up length and just generally very impressed.

 

Coming to the spinners. The control and nous shown by these kids was brilliant. Maybe slightly slow for international level, but very smart and accurate bowling

any video highlights?
