sandeep Posted July 6, 2018 Posted July 6, 2018 1 hour ago, express bowling said: Complete lack of vision and foresight. All 4 specialist pacers in the ODI squad are now short to medium height, lack natural bounce and are right armed. Bumrah is a bouncy and genuinely quick pacer ... being replaced by a short, fast-medium guy. This attack ( without Bumrah ) lacks any variety and bounce. Why was Khaleel Ahmed not chosen ? Shardul is pretty mediocre anyway. Maybe because Khaleel is quite raw? The Indian team prefers control and accuracy in their pace bowlers over raw pace and potential. That much is quite clear. Having said that, I'm not thrilled with Thakur's selection. I guess the selectors and team want to send a message that once you are selected into the squad, you are going to get a decent bunch of chances, instead of being written off after a game or 2. But Thakur simply doesn't pass the eye test.

Apart from picking up a bunch of Ranji wickets, I'm not sure what Shardul has really demonstrated to get into the Indian squad. He doesn't have height/bounce, or pace, or exceptional swing or control. And its not like we don't have other options, who are at least on paper, potentially better.

Dhoni.....Trundler love.... What has even Raina done to make a comeback? Rayudu gets an Indian ODI team call just based on an awesome IPL while Pant who has been even more awesome in IPL struggles to get into even T20 squad. Deepak Chahar jumps ahead of Rajput and others who have been on selector's radar for sometime and magically finds a place in Indian team.Something is suspicious. Is dhoni pulling the strings even in selections? Edited July 7, 2018 by Pollack Laaloo, UrmiSinhaRay, beetle and 7 others 3 7
asterix Posted July 7, 2018 Posted July 7, 2018 ^ Dhoni pulling strings of Kohli who in turn pulls the strings of the selectors...Reason: Dhoni is currently the unofficial captain of Team India in LOIs...Kohli has give up captaincy to Dhoni (or may be Dhoni has taken over)...One of the main reasons Dhoni gets so much of hate is that he gets his favourites selected in the team and young talented players are currently in a phase lag of 2 years...

MK55 Posted July 7, 2018 Posted July 7, 2018 I getting fed up of Kohli's selection tactics. In the Indian setup the captain has a major role in team selection and his inputs are definitely considered even while choosing the squad. Does he not have the balls to ask for some genuine quicks or for some exciting ODI bats? UrmiSinhaRay, SK_IH and Suhaan 1 2

Austin 3:!6 Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 Ok I will be honest, our fast bowling bench strength is very poor. If likes of Bhuvi, Bumrah or Shami gets injured, there are no suitable replacements. Thaur, Unadkat, Chahar, Kaul, Siraj etc are absolute rubbish and oozes mediocrity. If any batsman gets injured, there are 10 readily available to replace them but cant say the same for (fast) bowlers. @rkt.india - What is happening man? No good bowlers in domestic?
