Even on flat pitches Yorkers are Yorkers, so teams which have effective death bowlers can minimise damage. Similarly if the opposition can't pick wrist spinners then that's a big advantage even on a non spinning deck. Aussies neither had effective death bowlers nor good wrist spinners. Indian team has Bumrah, Bhuvi, Chagall and Kuldeep. So, sure will make a difference. how does variation matters if ball is not spinning? variation can be effective only if ball turns. regarding yorkers, yorkers are good but very less margin of error and then they play a lot of scoops.

Nikhil_cric Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Ironically , the key to the modern ODI played on flat pitches, lightning outfields with monster bats and 2 useless kookaburra balls that don't deviate an inch off the straight is wrist spin. Hopefully chahal and Yadav will do what they did in SA and flight the ball with a lot of revs at a slow 70 kph. Either that or we need to get a batting lineup like theirs with power hitters all the way. I personally think we are the only team capable of beating this English side even on flat wickets.

Wrist spinners can extract something from even non spinning decks and it gets extenuated when variations are not picked. This was what happened in SA tour, they were by no means spinning deck.

They do well in India because the ball turns. Switchblade 1 Link to comment

They bowled well against SA but remember the pitches were bouncy and offering some turn. Once pitches gone flat even the super useless Pheklukwayo have taken them for cleaners. Besides they both have taken to cleaners in lot of games in IPL as well. They are good only if pitch has something to offer either bounce or turn which i think will not be there in england. So let's see how they perform there. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

I don't watch T20's except the odd one so I can't comment on those. Regardless I think they will do decently even in England. It's our batting that is a worry. Link to comment

Anyways, let's see how the Eng ODIs go. I believe our spinners will do well. But that's only if kaptaan Saab doesn't decide to drop Kuldeep. Link to comment

CA giving ODI cricket the respect it deserves LOL. Imagine us resting Dhawan, Kohli, Bhuvi, Bumrah, Kuldeep, Chahal....no wonder Poms are looking world class atm . It's been Australia's tried and tested method to sideways use bilateral ODI cricket to rest bench strength and tactics. They will be more competitive than this come the WC.

In fact, Cummins, Starc Hazlewood, Pattinson all are injured at the moment or recovering from injuries and none of them could play IPL due to that. So, it is not by choice but by circumstances. adi B and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

Our spinners got dry pitches in ODIs this time in SA where ball turned and as soon as they got conditions where ball was not turning, they got thrashed.

When all your main bowlers are injured what were they going to do? play 2nd string which they are doing. No method behind that. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
gakgupta Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Both of our spinners are bowling really well in tandem. Eng might score against them but they give wickets as well....Which means, 400 are out of scope...Don't underestimate our batting on flat tracks....Rohit will unleash himself on these roadsSent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Tapatalk UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

There has always been a method,they have used those for decades now,and its quite apparant of late,even if their main bowlers are fit they dont exhaust them playing in bilaterals ,by doing so they tick several boxes unlike ours(think tank) Lannister and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

Is this something to do with the Advertisers or it's a case of insecurity where they think they might lose their place if someone else comes in? Dhawan/Rohit is already feeling the heat because of KL Rahul, and hence they are making sure he has been kept out through various means. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
