Dinesh, Pandey, Iyer, Patel, Thakur should get 3 games each

[R.D forever]

This DK is a mental midget but to be frank whoever in his position would be like that. Always a stop gap solution , no clear plan from there management, no idea how many games u would get would freak out any guy. I would like to see how many matches he has played continuously in his ODI Career. Guess it won't be more than 5

Lot of batting is confidence thing. They treat Dinesh as a step child and expect him to perform. Give him three games in SA and then take a call.

wrong many times he has been given 10 games or around or even more 

2013 he got 15 , 2010 also he got around 10 

So many times he got chances against even minnows.............wat else does he wants free hit every ball 

 

A good player will always make use of watever chances not cry about getting more.

Once we go 4-0 up, I would love to see one of the openers 'rested' and KL Rahul given a chance.   Rest Dhoni and give Karthik a keeping opportunity.   Get Axar in there in place of one of the spinners and get Shardul into the XI replacing Bhuvi.

 

For the 6th game, rest Kohli and play Pandey, throw in Iyer as well at some point.    

 

Winning the series is important, winning 6-0 not as much.

They should "rest" Dhoni for longer than that, although it would mean DK playing more games. Not sure that I like either option.

Yeah, both are sucky options.  But given that the selectors and Kuptaan Wrogn have clearly committed to Dhoni as the locked in option for the 2019 WC, we do have to keep both of them in the mix.

It's like choosing between an old, rotting apple and a shiny, delicious plastic apple (that looks real from the outside).

Certainly Iyer needs to be in the team. We have too many passengers in Rohit, Jadhav, Rahane - don't trust any of these fellows, just lottery.

[Khota]

Dhoni instead of advising others should talk to himself and correct these stupid shots he plays. As a minimum Pandya and Dhoni should be out for the next game.

Jadhav has a niggle, he didn't field. Pandey should be selected, I Mr Mumbai/Kohli will pick Iyer.

Right now I would love to see anyone getting an opportunity. Kohli maybe scoring runs but his actions are hurting Indian cricket by not trying the bench.

[Lannister]

What's the point of Rahane in LOI? There are much better players warming the bench and here we have stuck with the likes of Dhoni, Jadhav. Pandey and Iyer should come in for the next matches. If KL Rahul had been there, he could have been tried in place of Rohit if not for the brilliant selections.
