Rahane and Jadeja for third test match


Recommended Posts

Posted

Jadeja should definitely be in.

 

In place of Pandya or Ashwin.

 

I would go with 2 spinners cos I always felt that was our strength except on 3 day green tracks.

 

We never even gave it a shot.

 

Going by Kohli's past moves, what could happen is this:

 

Vijay

Dhawan/Rahul (mostly Dhawan)

Kohli

Rahane

Rohit

DK (wk)

Pandya/Jaddu (mostly Jaddu)

Bhuvi

Shami

Ishant 

Bumrah

It’s last Test, better to keep batting lineup same

bringing Bhuvi And Saha in only

another chop-change will create confusion and anyways this Test 2 batting lineup is what most wanted 

Posted

I'd get jadeja in place of ashwin (just a trial change) , rahane in place of rohit and bhuvi in place of bumrah/ishant.

What kohli will do - get rahane in for chepu and maybe dhawan in for vijay

This.

 

How 2 new players are expected to perform straightaway in SA? Current set of players are more likely to improve their performance.

Rohit has sealed his spot buddy.

 

Second name in the team sheet after Kohli after today's knock. :phehe:

I have lost count of tests that we could have done better with Ashwin-Jaddu.

 

Durban 2013

Wellington 2014

Lord's 2014

Oval 2014 (not that it would have mattered with our batting)

Adelaide 2014

Sabina Park 2016

Centurion 2017

Baffled how some want pandya dropped. No diff btw u n kohli then

1 match kharab ke baad drop , aise player nhin bante. Special patience is needed with youngsters 

Wish he puts a price on his wicket though...

You make any number of changes, nothing will change... It’s an inexperienced team...

The main test players MV, ChePu etc are struggling...

Need Bhuvi back as Ishu will keep his place taking 4-5 tail end wickets...

HE is an attacking batsman , his game is such that on day it ll turn the game and on dys it ll look foolish

He is contributing thats what matters- he takes wkts, bowl overs to rest main bowlers, creates a runouts , plays a good knock 

Its others who are not contributing

Pandya is obviously a great talent.

 

Has real ability with bat and ball.

 

But he needs to have a core competency.

 

Is he a batsman or a bowler?

 

He must work on becoming a reliable number 6 bat who can get 100s.

I know. Has to bat like a batsman.

 

If Wanderers is pure pace track where even 1 spinner is too much, then Pandya should be in there.

 

But I have a soft spot for 2 spinners.

With he ll get better in one aspect 

At this point its not what he is compare to others all rounders and he is very young lets not forget that 

 

He is contributing in many ways, playing batsman ahead of him who arent scoring runs, isnt as good as him on field , doesnt even bowl.....

Aise kagazi batsman khilane ka kya faida
