Ankit_sharma03 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 Both shankar n Murali vijay shud be given a chance Vijay shankar can be a good option for Sa as batting is his more powerful suite ......he and pandya can give us option overseas to choose which aspect to strength battting or bowling Murali vijay shud make a big one and book his place Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 Vijay shankar bowling can be helpful on green mambas and his batting wud add depth Link to comment
Cricketics Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Great to see Shankar being tried, good to see selector recognizing him. This just increases competition for Pandya and will only push him to do better. We need need such competitions among players. Another one I can think of is Ishan Kishan and Pant competing for keeping spot for any format. Khota 1 Link to comment
Laaloo Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Good to see Shankar picked Link to comment
maniac Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) I was dreading the return of the great lord Binny next test but once in a while these selectors can surprise us-Good pick with Shankar Edited November 20, 2017 by maniac Link to comment
sarcastic Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 So, Rohit Sharma is playing 2nd test match if India don't pick Shankar as a bowling allrounder. LOL! Link to comment
Rightarmfast Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Have no idea about this Shankar guy? Is he a medium pacer plus batsman? Link to comment
Cricketics Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 My team for next test Vijay Rahul Pujara Kohli Rahane Shankar Saha Kuldeep Yadav Shami Ishant I will give Kuldeep a test right now and sit out Jadeja and Ashwin. If we don’t try Kuldeep now, he might not play a test for a while as I honestly don’t see him getting selected in South Africa ahead of Ashwin and Jadeja. We will also get to see how he does on a green top. Lannister, Khota and chewy 3 Link to comment

His bowling is okay, nothing special but he is a quality batsman, way better than Pandya for test cricket. He is a medium pacer who can improve as he is still very young. Competitiom to play for all rounder spot will push him to improve his bowling. Rightarmfast and tweaker 2 Link to comment
Jimmy Cliff Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Pleasantly surprised by this. Hope Shankar gets to bat at 6. Link to comment
maniac Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) What is the status of Rohit’s fast bowling practice sessions? With his natural wrists and shoulder size he can be deceptively quick like Kallis I think. With being a off spin prodigy In swing /off cutters should be an inherent gift. And being one of the highest 6 hitters for India in recent times he can be our Gilchrist at No.6. We really have a Gilchrist+Kallis waiting in the wings Edited November 20, 2017 by maniac RAZPOR, Jimmy Cliff, Laaloo and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment
speedheat Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 That's a good news, Shankar is a quality batsman, we can groom him for overseas tours as a batting allrounder , his bowling and fitness is question mark tgough. Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Finally Vijay Shankar gets into the squad. Hope he is played at no. 6 and not Rohit Link to comment

His bowling IMO will be good enough overseas for a batting all rounder. Link to comment
Pollack Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Great to see Vijay Shankar. But how is he replacement for bhuvi. Bhuvi will be dearly missed if next two pitches are going to be lively green tops. Link to comment

Yes I agree, especially on green tracks also can create some healthy competition for allrounders slot, I like that guy can hit big when needed too Forever Indian 1 Link to comment
