Are they considering Pandya and Cuttings to be front line bowlers. They can easily replace Cummins with Morkel or Hazlewood. They have Sangwan too.

BeautifulGame Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 1 hour ago, someone said: Wow, thats a bad team. No explosive power in batting line up. If they are chasing some big totals, they will struggle to get a powerful start and raina would be lucky to start as he is in some poor form. Billings is pretty explosive opener.

diga Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Taking in SA & Aus pacers is fraught with some risk when the 4 test series is scheduled before IPL.. Atleast one of the lead pacers in each team will miss IPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WC2011INDIA Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Looking at all the line-ups..weakest is KKR. RR doesn't has much spin option so when they travel to a city where spin will play key role, they are *ed. The top 3 teams of this IPL are SRH, DD and MI. Rest will be fighting hard.

He averaged 45 at a SR of of 135 in PSL.And the conditions in Dubai are pretty similar to IPL. Raina Faf Bravo Jadhav Bhajji can all tonk the ball big from get go.Watson can as well but that will depend on his form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kohli BMac/Kock AB Mandeep Sarfaraz Grandhomme/Woakes/Moeen Sundar NCN Negi/M Ashwin Chahal Umesh/Siraj/Saini IMO, RCB is better balanced this time than previous seasons. They probably just lack a leader of pace bowling, Starc would have made a huge difference. One of NCN / Woakes has to take up the leadeship role. Spin is in good shape. Chahal the leader, Sundar should be the second spinner (offie). Negi / M Ashwin back ups in case of injury. I personally don't like the batting to be totally top heavy. Virat should bat at #3 and ABDV at #5 and be the finisher. Plenty of team combinations RCB can opt for. I'd like to start with this .. + DeKock M Vohra * V Kohli De GrandHomme AB DeVilliers Sarfraz Khan W Sundar N Coulter Nile K Kejroliya (left arm pacers have been traditionally v effective in T20s) Siraj / Umesh Y Chahal That's a strong explosive batting lineup, with plenty of depth till #8. De Grandhomme is in great batting form, he can be given the license to just go for it at #4. Good spin combination of Chahal and Sundar. Leggie and an offie. Decent pace bowling attack. Just hope NCN/Woakes become the leader of the pack from get go. With DeKock, Kohli and ABDV around and getting the premier batting position at #1 M Vohra has an excellent chance to make this his break through year. He has the game to be consistent and make fairly big runs with high SR. Mosher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundar at no.7 is tricky because he has struggled with big hitting .Become more of accumulator.So would play Woakes at 7 (instead of NCN ) and Sundar at 8.
