Forever Indian Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Should be used only as a sixth bowler, the ODI team requires 5 proper bowlers. We did the same mistake in CT ending up losing the CT, and still not learning from it! Link to comment

Pandya should be in team primarily as a finisher batsman, so should be in team only if he is able to fulfill that role. Link to comment

He went for runs against set batsmen. He is not a death bowler not an opening bowler, so has to bowl a lot of overs in middle. If one of your other two bowlers who have the open the bowling and in the death have an off day, you have no where to go. That was exposed badly in CT where Bumrah had an off series and we could not defend 300 even against SL. Link to comment

SK_IH Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 he has improved a lot but expecting him to be a 10 over bowler will prove costly ,most times the captain is in a hurry to get his 10 overs out of the way Link to comment

Bumrah clearly had an off series in CT, so all onus was on Bhuvi to bowl at death as well as opening overs and get wickets. Pacers can have some off days, that's why you need three frontline pacers to cover for someone who is not bowling well at the death or with new ball. Link to comment

If we select 3 proper seamers, 2 spinners and a wicketkeeper, our batting becomes weak with a long tail since most specialist Indian seamers are did with the bat.one of tge spinner Chahal is also almost tailender.

He did end up bowling well and was not the reason for our loss. Spinners were the reason. chewy 1 Link to comment

How many matches have we required the sixth batsman in ODIs in India? Most runs scoring is done by top 4 anyways. Rather have an extra bowler than a batsman if you are looking to win matches.

speedheat Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 He bowled OK today, 10-49-2 is OK in which he went for 20 in one over with one edge flying towards third slip for 4, although I still think we should use him as sixth bowler who could give us good 5 to 6 overs in the middle, we need krunal to complete pandya who can bowl a complete 10 overs quota.

chewy Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 in the current match (vs SL) he finished with 2/49 of 10 overs, he has had decent year in International cricket and currently by numbers exceeding Ben Stokes in all departments, though early days, but nevertheless has better numbers than Ben Stokes, who in ODIs concedes more than 6 rpo after over 50 innings the one weak link(s) India had in ODI, have been removed, Ashwin and Jadeja, current bowling unit is a huge improvement compared to having these two Link to comment
