Trichromatic Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 When you select 5 bowlers make sure your top 5 is your best 5. Gollum 1 Link to comment
Scar Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 When I think of our batting lineup always forget saha is also playing, that is the level of confidence I have in him. I repeat, we need extra batsman here possibly lower kohli down to 5 and add another cushion of batsman to blunt/survive the ball for first 25 overs. This is why I wanted to vote for 6 batsman but then realised we have Rohit to bank upon in 6 batsman strategy. So voted for laude lg gye. Link to comment

U cant guarntee with anyone but atleast we have to give ourself a better chance. Rahul n rahane are better players so they atleast give us a better chance and if they cant well digest it no one else wud have done it either. They are our best players adi B 1 Link to comment

diga Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I think Kohli will do a Dhoni... aka same team Link to comment
mishra Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Just now, diga said: I think Kohli will do a Dhoni... aka same team Exactly, He may drop a bowler to strengthen batting. Didnt he say whats use of 20 wickets if we cant bat. Link to comment

They are better but not by a huge margin, in such cases one good innnings or one good spell can be diff In last test had we had one more good innings result might have been....so u have to give ur best players like rahane n rahul a chance to do that In last test we didnt give ourself the best chance to win or loose Link to comment
bhakum20 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 BAtting order needs to be switched to protect our hacks. Bowlers will also be fresher to bowl in next innings: Shami/Ishant/Umesh if shami not fit Bumrah BK Ashwin Saha Pandya Rahane Kohli Pujara Vijay Rahul We can go from 20/3 to 500 all out, instead of the usual 20/3 to 150 all out Lannister and SecondSlip 2 Link to comment
adi B Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I have a strange feeling kohli will drop ashwin for a batsman I.e rahane and dhawan for Raul. Strange feeling!! Link to comment
zen Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 None of the top 5 reached 50. If this is going to be the trend, we might as well play 6 bowlers and look to bowl out SA for 150 or less Link to comment
SLICKR392 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 It was a match winning combination. The problem wasn't with the combination, but the 2 individuals involved in the batting department. express bowling 1 Link to comment

No they all got repeated....so deleted I am not insecure to have people agree with me. I just need numbers to agree with me and unfortunately for you those numbers are on my side. Explain to me why according to you this statement is false: 16 + 16 > 1 + 13 It is always about performance not emotion or nostalgia in your case. Link to comment
