Ishant

 

Shami, Ashwin, Shankar, Saini, Saha, Mayank

Ashwin has played in England in the county.He'll be selected first in the XI.Ashwin plays as an allrounder

outside of SC. Kuldeep doesn't fit that bill.

Khaleel bowled a few deliveries at 147 k and 148 k  too.

If Khaleel gets in whom does he replace? If everything is sorted then Shami,BK and Bumrah will play.

Ishant has done enough to keep his place in the squad.Umesh is also captain's choice.So those are our

top 5 seamers that'll go.If anyone gets in to replace an injury or unavailability it'll be Saini.Let Khaleel get

selected in the LOIs first.

I am not advocating Khaleel's inclusion in our test squad as of today.

 

Saini is my pick for the test squad.

 

Just commented that Khaleel bowled a few deliveries at 147 k and 148 k.

 

Khaleel can be tried in the LOI squads though.

Yes he can come in right now if selectors show some balls.

SO last time we sent an 18 member squad to england for 5 test , assuming same happens 

 

1. Vijay

2. Rahul

3. pujara

4. kohli

5. rahane

6. Pandya

7. Saha

8. Ashwin

9. bhuvi

10. shami

11. umesh 

12. dinesh karthik (2nd wk n backup opener)

13. Vijay shankar 

14. Nair/vihari

15. Jadeja/kuldeep

16. bumrah

17. navdeep

18. gurbani

 

  • No need to waste places on dhawan n rohit. Karthik can open n so can pujara
  • ideally i wud have wanted both nair n vihari overseas but cant find a place for both. 
  • Reverse swing will come in handy so umesh n shami will be crucial 
  • Gurbani is low on pace but has the abilty to take wkts with new n old ball and england conditions will suit him
  • I hope they take 4-5 fast bowlers to practice like they did in SA- shardul, avesh, siraj, nagarkotti, thampi
  • between kuldeep n jadeja, if kuldeep is looking more consistent in nets take him or else he will go for plenty 
  • play pandya if its flat , play shankar if their is grass or heavy cloud cover

Add Khaleel to that group.He's quick,skillful and a left armer.
