SecondSlip Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 KKR lacks Indian matchwinners. One of Gill or Rana has to step up big time for KKR to make it into the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someone Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 My analysis on just their weakness 1. DD very little. Probably main is 1 death bowler specialist with Boult. And a relatively inexperienced middle order trio. 2. SRH again very little. Probably their lack of finishers, and little firepower other than Warner will hurt them 3. KKR not much either. But new captain and leader is key. Only 1 all rounder 4. CSK is a case of are they still good enough? They lack any firepower. they aren't going to get aggressive starts and don't have good seam bowling attack. A lot of out-of-form players 5. RCB, they dont have a go-to bowler at death overs. And they don't have any quality batsman at lower order particularly if their top order collapses 6. MI. Just one quality top order batsman Rohit. Cummins is a bad buy, he has no defensive yorker. And they also have no quality spinners. 7. KXIP, again lack of leadership and captaincy brains. Their middle order batsman are out-of form and have a non-existent fast bowling attack. 8. RR, too many one-season wonders. No quality spinners, and fast bowlers either. Far too many weakness in this team especially if your 2nd best Indian is Unadkat and he will be leading your bowling attack. It's asking for troubles.

Morris is a gun death bowler and I think Rabada can do the job too with his inswinging Yorkers. Their middle order includes Iyer, Maxwell, Pant and Morris. I don't see many middle orders better than this for a T20 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adi B Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Contrary to the belief,i think MI have the best team followed by DD. This time around there's no team that's gonna runaway and leave behind the rest . csk have an old team and they'll be heavily reliant on their bowling especially bravo and wood.

adi B Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 For the first time csk's batting looks weak and bowling looks pretty strong.dont tell me that faf,dhoni,watto,vijay are good/explosive t20 players ,they'll struggle in hitting department someone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoverDrive Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 My analysis of the teams. Quote Chennai Super Kings Total players: 25Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: Faf du Plessis, Shane Watson, M VijayMiddle-order batsmen: Suresh Raina, Kedar Jadhav, Ambati Rayudu, Chaitanya Bishnoi, Sam Billings, Dhruv ShoreyWicketkeepers: MS Dhoni, J NarayanAllrounders: Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo, Monu Kumar Singh, Kshitiz SharmaWristspinners: Karn Sharma, Imran TahirFingerspinners: Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell SantnerFast bowlers: Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, KM Asif, Kanishk Seth, Mark Wood, Lungi Ngidi Possible starting XI: 1 Shane Watson/Faf du Plessis, 2 M Vijay, 3 Suresh Raina, 4 Kedar Jadhav, 5 MS Dhoni (capt & wk), 6 Ravindra Jadeja, 7 Dwayne Bravo, 8 Harbhajan Singh, 9 Shardul Thakur, 10 Imran Tahir, 11 Lungi Ngidi/Mark Wood Overall their bowling looks stronger than batting this time Key Factor: A lot is going to depend upon Raina's form as you feel a lack of firepower in the batting. Weakness: Watson is not really the force he was and batting order of Vijay/Dhoni/Rayudu/Jadhav has a lot of question marks. Strength: Spin bowling. They have complete spin attack. Bhajji is still a very effective T20 bowler and Tahir in form (If not Karn can step in who has been taking a lot of wickets) Sharma would be great. Dhoni is the best spin bowling captain ever and if they prepare spin pitches that may their way into playoffs. They have a decent pace attack also. Smart Picks: Bhajji, Deepak Chahar, Asif, Wood, Ngidi No so smart Picks?: Jadhav Quote Delhi Daredevils Total players: 25Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: Colin Munro, Jason Roy, Gautam Gambhir, Prithvi Shaw, Manjot KalraMiddle-order batsmen: Shreyas Iyer, Glenn MaxwellWicketkeeper: Rishabh Pant, Naman OjhaAllrounders: Chris Morris, Vijay Shankar, Abhishek Sharma, Gurkeerat Singh, Daniel ChristianWristspinners: Amit Mishra, Rahul Tewatia, Sandeep LamichhaneFingerspinners: Jayant Yadav, Shahbaz NadeemFast Bowlers: Harshal Patel, Mohammed Shami, Kagiso Rabada, Avesh Khan, Trent Boult, Sayan Ghosh Posible starting XI: 1 Colin Munro/Jason Roy, 2 Gautam Gambhir (capt), 3 Shreyas Iyer, 4 Rishabh Pant (wk), 5 Glenn Maxwell, 6 Vijay Shankar, 7 Chris Morris, 8 Shahbaz Nadeem/Jayant Yadav, 9 Amit Mishra, 10 Kagiso Rabada/Trent Boult, 11 Mohammed Shami Key Factor: They have potentially a lot of X factors with the likes of Maxwell,Pant, Munro, Roy, Rabada, Boult, Shami, Morris, Mishra. But these kind of players are very hit or miss. Maxwell had a great year followed by an average one. So a lot depends on how many of these shine among the more reliable/anchor players like Gambhir, Shaw, Nadeem Weakness: Experience which can be handy when in playoffs so a lot depends on Gambhir Strength: Top order explosive players (Kishan, PAnt, Roy) and Fast bowling. They will prefere a spicy pitch for likes of Rabada,Boult,Shami,Avesh Smart Picks: Rabada, Shankar, Gambhir , Shaw, Avesh, Roy Not So Smart Picks?: Tewatia Quote Kings XI Punjab Total players: 21Number of overseas players: 7 Openers: Aaron Finch, KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Chris GayleMiddle-order batsmen: Karun Nair, Yuvraj Singh, David Miller, Manoj TiwaryWicketkeepers: Akshdeep NathAllrounders: Axar Patel, Marcus Stoinis, Manzoor DarWristspinners: Mujeeb Zadran, Pardeep SahuFingerspinners: R Ashwin, Mayank DagarFast bowlers: Ankit Rajpoot, Mohit Sharma, Barinder Sran, Andrew Tye, Ben Dwarshuis Possible starting XI: 1 KL Rahul (wk), 2 Aaron Finch/Chris Gayle, 3 Karun Nair, 4 Yuvraj Singh, 5 David Miller, 6 Marcus Stoinis, 7 Axar Patel, 8 R Ashwin (capt), 9 Mohit Sharma, 10 Andrew Tye, 11 Ankit Rajpoot/Barinder Sran This is one of the teams that feels incomplete and I think they overpaid for a couple of players which got them short in the end. Key Factor: This is going to be test of Rahul and Nair as top level players. Team is going to depend fully on them with likes of Yuvraj, Gayle now on the wane. A lot will depend on how good Stoinis and Miller in the middle order. Weakness: Bowling does not feel like a complete unit yet which can take a lot of wickets. Mohit and Ashwin are not top level T20 bowlers right now and they are depending a lot of Guys like Tye and Axar Strength: Decent Middle order of Nair, miller and Stoinis who is in great hitting form. Smart Picks: Stoinis, Nair, Miller, Tiwary, Mayank Not So Smart Picks?: 12.5 crores for Axar Patel Quote Kolkata Knight Riders Total players: 19Number of overseas players : 7 Openers: Chris Lynn, Robin Uthappa, Cameron DelportMiddle-order batsmen: Shubman Gill, Ishank Jaggi, Nitish Rana, Apoorv Wankhade, Rinku SinghWicketkeepers: Dinesh KarthikAllrounders: Andre Russell, Javon SearlesWristspinners: Piyush Chawla, Kuldeep YadavFingerspinners: Sunil NarineFast bowlers: Mitchell Starc, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Shivam Mavi, Vinay Kumar, Mitchell Johnson Possible starting XI: 1 Chris Lynn, 2 Shubman Gill, 3 Robin Uthappa (capt), 4 Dinesh Karthik (wk), 5 Nitish Rana, 6 Andre Russell, 7 Piyush Chawla/Ishank Jaggi, 8 Sunil Narine, 9 Mitchell Starc, 10 Kuldeep Yadav, 11 Kamlesh Nagarkoti/Shivam Mavi/Vinay Kumar Key Factor: They have made a big call of dropping Gambhir and now they depend on likes of Uthappa and Karthik to carry this team. It is going to be very interesting as these two have always failed to graduate to the next level and it is not like they are young potential (like in case of Pandey, Nair, Rahul) so there is not going to be a dramatic improvement. Weakness: Batting. They really will be hoping Lynn and Russell have a very good season else they will struggle to put up big scores. Strength: Bowling overall looks very promising and possibly best unit if all are fit. Kuldeep, Narine and Starc are topmost bowlers in this form. Chawla has done well and they have very exciting duo of Nagarkoti and Mavi Smart Picks: Gill, Mavi, Nagarkoti Not So Smart Picks?: No one but they actually have a very small squad Quote Mumbai Indians Total players: 25Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: Evin Lewis Middle-order batsmen: Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Saurabh Tiwary, JP Duminy, Siddhesh Lad, Sharad LumbaWicketkeepers: Ishan Kishan, Aditya TareAllrounders: Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, Ben Cutting, Tajinder SinghWristspinners: Mayank Markande, Rahul ChaharFingerspinners: Anukul Roy, Akila DananjayaFast bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Mustafizur Rahman, Pat Cummins, Pradeep Sangwan, Jason Behrendorff, MD Nidheesh, Mohsin Khan Possible starting XI: 1 Evin Lewis, 2 Ishan Kishan (wk), 3 Rohit Sharma (capt), 4 Suryakumar Yadav, 5 Kieron Pollard, 6 Hardik Pandya, 7 Krunal Pandya, 8 Ben Cutting/Akila Dananjaya/Mustafizur Rahman, 9 Pat Cummins, 10 Rahul Chahar, 11 Jasprit Bumrah Key Factor: They have a decent squad and I think it is better than one that won last time (They have the best retentions). Key is for the young picks like Lewis and Kishan to pick up. Last year's success was built around Bumrah and Pandya brothers and their form is going to be key. Weakness: Spin bowling is very untested and they would rely on likes of Cummins, Bumrah and Fizz to take wickets. Strength: Pandya brothers - These two guys have potential to be together in Indian team. Krunal batted better than Hardik last year and Hardik has got lot more exposure. They also have the best T20 bowler in Bumrah. Smart Picks: Cummins, Fizz, Sangwan Not So Smart Picks?: No one Quote Rajasthan Royals Total players: 23Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: Ajinkya Rahane, D'Arcy Short, Rahul TripathiMiddle-order batsmen: Steven Smith, Aryaman BirlaWicketkeepers: Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, Prashant ChopraAllrounders: Ben Stokes, Stuart Binny, Jofra Archer, K Gowtham, Jatin Saxena, Mahipal LomrorWristspinners: Zahir Khan, Shreyas Gopal, Midhun SFingerspinners: Ankit SharmaFast bowlers: Anureet Singh, Jaydev Unadkat, Dhawal Kulkarni, Dushmantha Chameera, Ben Laughlin Possible starting XI: 1 Ajinkya Rahane, 2 Rahul Tripathi, 3 Steven Smith (capt), 4 Sanju Samson, 5 Jos Buttler (wk), 6 Ben Stokes, 7 Jofra Archer, 8 K Gowtham, 9 Shreyas Gopal/Ankit Sharma/Mahipal Lomror, 10 Jaydev Unadkat, 11 Dhawal Kulkarni Key Factor: Can Rahane and Smith be top level T20 players. Likes of Smason, buttler and Stokes have to come in earlier and have bigger impact on the game. also can you build a bowling attack around Unadkat and Kulkarni. Weakness: Bowling feels little incomplete and likes of Unadkat have to really justify their status. Strength: Middle order of Stokes, Samson, Buttler Smart Picks: Buttler, Not So Smart Picks?: Unadkat Quote Royal Challengers Bangalore Total players: 24Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: Brendon McCullum, Manan VohraMiddle-order batsmen: Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Sarfaraz Khan, Mandeep Singh, Pavan DeshpandeWicketkeepers: Quinton de Kock, Parthiv PatelAllrounders: Moeen Ali, Colin de Grandhomme, Chris Woakes, Aniruddha JoshiWristspinners: Yuzvendra Chahal, M AshwinFingerspinners: Washington Sundar, Pawan NegiFast bowlers: Kulwant Khejroliya, Umesh Yadav, Aniket Choudhary, Navdeep Saini, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Mohammad Siraj, Tim Southee Possible starting XI: 1 Brendon McCullum/Quinton de Kock, 2 Manan Vohra/Parthiv Patel (wk), 3 Virat Kohli (capt), 4 Sarfaraz Khan, 5 AB de Villiers, 6 Moeen Ali/Colin de Grandhomme/Chris Woakes, 7 Washington Sundar, 8 Yuzvendra Chahal, 9 Umesh Yadav, 10 Nathan Coulter-Nile/Tim Southee, 11 Mohammad Siraj/Aniket Choudhary/Navdeep Saini Key Factor: Can Indian batsmen step up to support Kohli. Sarfaraz, Manan, Mandeep have a big role to play. Weakness: Fast bowling has promising names but are they best for this format especially for Chinnaswamy. Saini, Aniket, Yadav are promising bowlers but you wonder if they will get carted around on flat pitches. Strength: Kohli and AB and the best batsmen in the world and team will rely a lot on them. They have a good spin attack this time with Chahal getting good support from Sundar and M Ashwin. Bangalore lately has aided spin little more off late and it may be a good thing for them. Smart Picks: Chahal, Sundar, Saini, Siraj, Khejroliya Not So Smart Picks?: They have been smarter this time with not overpaying for anyone. Woakes is only risk they took. Quote Sunrisers Hyderabad Total players: 25Number of overseas players: 8 Openers: David Warner, Shikhar DhawanMiddle-order batsmen: Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson, Sachin Baby, Ricky Bhui, Tanmay AgarwalWicketkeepers: Wriddhiman Saha, Shreevats GoswamiAllrounders: Shakib Al Hasan, Carlos Brathwaite, Yusuf Pathan, Deepak Hooda, Mohammad NabiWristspinners: Rashid KhanFingerspinners: Bipul Sharma, Mehdi HasanFast Bowlers: Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed, Siddarth Kaul, Basil Thampi, T Natarajan, Sandeep Sharma, Chris Jordan, Billy Stanlake Possible starting XI: 1 Shikhar Dhawan, 2 David Warner (capt), 3 Kane Williamson, 4 Manish Pandey, 5 Shakib Al Hasan, 6 Wriddhiman Saha (wk), 7 Yusuf Pathan/Deepak Hooda, 8 Rashid Khan, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 Sandeep Sharma, 11 One of the other Indian quicks Key Factor: Big opportunity for Pandey and his chance to show he is one of the best. Their bowling is more untested and likes of Thampi, Khaleel need to step up at big stage. Weakness: Middle order does not look very strong Strength: They have two of the best playes in Warner and Bhuvi who won them the cup some time back. Smart Picks: Khaleel, Williamson, Brathwaite, Shakib, Thampi Not So Smart Picks?: No one Mosher and Mariyam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even mishra is wicket taker but can leak runs. but more obvious, is your middle order. The indian trio are all inexperienced, no international pedigree. And maxwell, morris arent be your key batsman.

Mumbai indians Starting Lineup Mumbai Indians- Lewis, Kishen, Rohit , Pollard, duminy , Krunal, hardik , chahar, cummins, bumrah, sanghwan I think Cutting is better option than Duminy. he can score quick 25-30 runs & can bowl 2-3 overs in middle. he can bowl 2-3 overs as good as Sangwan if not better. Cutting for Duminy & SKY for Sangwan. that will make both batting & bowling even stronger. With 6 proper bowlers (excluding Pollard) Rohit can manage 20 overs. there are going to be few bad high scoring overs, which they have to manage by scoring more runs with long batting line up.

ER was very high but i feel that coach & team management should think or work with him to make him more economical & take advantage of his fast bowling in teams favour.
