Mr. Wicket Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Yusuf Khan Pathan, 106 not out, 56 balls. 13 fours, 5 sixes.
mhr123 Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 If he improves his Offi spinners he could he India's Answer to Andrew Symonds.
DomainK Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 He is one guy to be groomed. He must be exposed to international cricket soon.
Sachinism Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 he'll probably make the ODI team one day, but not sure if it'll be too soon he's shown a lot of potential over the last year, maybe he deserves a spot, but there are a lot of other players in the queue
IndianRenegade Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Yusuf Khan Pathan' date=' 106 not out, 56 balls. 13 fours, 5 sixes.[/quote'] In which match?
talksport Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Is he the same guy who hit a SIX the first ball he faced in international cricket....
Cricketics Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 yes, he's brother of Irfan Pathan and btw salil, whom should he replace in our ODI SQUAD?????
kabira Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 We want attacking spinner who can take wickets in middle overs...bhajji can't do, Yusuf can't do it...we need to nurture Chawla...and give him license to go for wickets..

kabira Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 >as if this thing was forbidden or restricted for a bowler?? you need skills...and chawla has it..
diegovegaz Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 If he improves his Offi spinners he could he India's Answer to Andrew Symonds. well said but i think he is a bit of what we call a lappu i hv cn him get out quite a number of times, by trying 2 hit the hard right from the beginning he's like the dhoni when he was at the beginning of his career, boundaries all the way, the only difference being dhoni succeeded in doing that than yusuf
Ram Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 I really like the look of this one-day team, Sachin Sehwag Rohit Sharma Yuvraj Dhoni Raina/Karthik/Uthappa Yusuf Irfan Chawla RPS Sreesanth/Zaheer I think this will be a world beating one-day team. It has got everything a strong ODI team needs, experienced top order that also has fire power, power middle order, some strong hitting and quick running in the lower middle order, 2 attacking seamers in RPS and Sreesanth, a containing seamer in Irfan, a genuine attacking spin bowler in Chawla and a power-hitting 5th spinner in Yusuf. Apart from that, this is the probably the BEST ever Indian fielding unit to set foot on a cricket field and just one player is over 30 and he is the best one day batsman in the world. This team will give ANY team a run for its money.
diegovegaz Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 i guess yusuf isn't in the odi squad he is on stand by but urs is definately an interesting team combination
Ram Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 I have been crying my throat hoarse that the one day game has now undergone transformational change since the last few years. This is now totally a power-hitters game. If you are a batsman, unless you have ability to muscle the ball through the gaps, you shouldnt be in the team, unless otherwise you are a genius like Sachin Tendulkar. The other aspect of the one-day game that has gone a revolutionary change is the importance of utility players. This is the time for players who are capable of creating a match-winning difference in the game with atleast two aspects of their game. For eg, If you are a pure batsman, you need to be a brilliant fielder too. The only exception I would make to this rule is fast bowlers. If you are pacer and give me early wickets, I wouldnt be too bothered how good you are with your other aspects of the game. I genuinely feel the team I have put forward, fulfills all the requirements of a world beating one-day team. I hope its not long before that one-day team takes the field for India.

bigdhoni7 Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 powar is horrible on the field and can't bat to save his life. i hope he never gets picked again.
