BeautifulGame Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Pritvi Shaw and Washington Sundar both have a lot in common. Both Teenagers that has generated a lot of hype.Yet just playing their first Ranji season as regular . Sundar is 18 and Shaw is a younger and just 17. Also interestingly both are openers and can bowl off spin though obviously Sundar is much better bowler as of now. Obviously Rahul looks pretty much set as our test opener for next decade (injuries permitting ) , bit both Dhawan and Vijay are in 30s so realistically we will be looking at next generation of opener to partner Rahul atworst in next home season (12-18 months). So who do you thing will break into the test team first ?
sourab10forever Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 IMO, WS is more suited for LOIs and Shaw for tests.
Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Sundar wont break into team as opener but as LOI package he might soon.He just needs to get his fitness right Kuldeep, sundar, Chahal, Krunal, Karn can be killer LOI spin bowling attack with all the variety possible

Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Just now, BeautifulGame said: Any reason why? As test opener- shaw, pachal, prashant chopra are standing ahead of him infact ill add dhawan n parthiv patel to Unless and until he he has 2 season of huge numbers runs as opener there is no chance. As LOI u knw the line before him As this point his best chance is to get in team as spin bowling all rounder and he can as ashwin failure in LOi as opened the slot for need of right arm off spinner . Good he is opening for TN it ll help his batting only.......

sandeep Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 There's a long line of batsmen waiting to get into Indian team. And always will be. Competition is even thicker for top order bats. Sundar will be in the team a couple of years before Shaw.
SK_IH Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 neither,selectors are busy selecting experienced players velu, WC2011INDIA, Vilander and 1 other 1 2 1
Vk1 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Like contesting for elections, min age for selection in team is 25.. Kuldeep is an aberration

Not easy to enter in Indian team if you are NOT SPECIALIST OPENER. Washington Sunder is a specialist opener. What are you even on about ?
mancalledsting Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 P shaw as there's a surplus of spinning allrounders in India currently, Ashwin, jadeja, axar vijay is ageing kl Rahul is injury prone dhawan not suitable for tests therefore there seems to be a shorter pathway for shaw
bowl_out Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I even wonder if there is merit in playing Sundar in the ODI XI along with Chahal and Kuldeep. Pandya and Sundar can get 10 overs between them, and Sundar can be the No.6 / No. 7 bat... But for a start, I'd like to see him break into the T20 side, where he has proved his mettle.. IPL may not be the best place to judge a player for the national side, but for T20s it does to a good extent
BeautifulGame Posted October 18, 2017 Author Posted October 18, 2017 Moderator let me check first from various resources, I think Sunder is number 6/7 player yes last ranjitrophy season i just check his scores in last 5 matches as Opener highest score was 40 in 9 innings,only this year he looks to me star performer with both ball and ball but belives me now he not get chance NO WHERE no test / No ODI Ask shreyas Iyer how tuff to enter in one level higher Sunder is a regular opener through out his career.Last season he was reserve opener for TN and didn't play much .

chewy Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 Shaw more likely because powerful Mumbai lobby, especially in media, will help his cause seems to help Rahane and Rohit
SUMO Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 Is sundar a power bitter? He is very tall and decently build.

American authorities don't have any say in Indian sports .... like they do in Pakistan. Forever Indian and The Dark Horse 2
