UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 what has dhoni got to do with test selections Dhoni ka haat bohut lamba hai. Especially after the booing, I bet both Kohli and Dhoni are super insecure. Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk beetle 1 Link to comment
UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 After his performance in India A tour of Australia Naman Ojha was selected for the England test series as replacement for injured Saha.But the selectors had clearly stated that he would only be 2nd choice wicket keeper. He was in good form, but it was mentioned that he should not be selected in the playing 11 & should be treated as standbyIs Naman ojha playing in this test? Right now I think it is Dinesh Kartik who will play all the 5 matches. There are useless home matches against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka to play the likes of PantSent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Link to comment

UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 agar pant select ho gaya to kahoge dhoni ka haath nhin haiHe will probably be selected- I don't doubt that but it doesn't really change the fact that Dhoni is insanely powerful. Else why do you think likes of Kartik got chosen over Pant in england tour and Ambati Rayudu got mysteriously dropped, only to be replaced by the likes of Raina who is past his expiry date? Why doesn't Krunal Pandya hasn't got a match yet though Raina has been a failure? Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Link to comment
UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 too?? Kuch bhi 14 log aur the uss team men, jadeja bhi tha and he is dropped from Indian LOI teamBecause they don't need his services anymore(or at least right now) Wait for a bit and he'll sure come back.Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Link to comment

Same reason yuvraj, bhajji, gambhir were picked. Kohli loves experienced players Kartik won us nidhas - u think he wud have been dropped after that 40 minutes ago, UrmiSinhaRay said: Why doesn't Krunal Pandya hasn't got a match yet though Raina has been a failure? Its been made clear that no one will get in tea, before India-A Krunal have gotten injured so many times, so he wud have to go through that process again Link to comment

They play safe- they wanna see that youngster for 2-3 A tours or even more to feel safe Return from injury will make them question his current form which will never be the same case for a senior player for them. I think by now we shud understand how the whole think tank functions Link to comment

Friends of the captain come and go as they wish, while the chairman of selectors is expendable, except that one time Kris was shilling for CSK & Dhoni.

cowboysfan Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Imo they will pick Karthik as the lone keeper if they are planning to include Kuldeep,they cant just drop Jadeja just yet. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Then the second keeper will be Pant or Pappu.Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Link to comment

He has kept well , scored a winning 67 .....i dnt see anything stopping him unless he keeps like kamran akmal in the game against England lions Link to comment

They need another keeper and Rahul Dravid is pretty keen on Pant though I feel the Indian Selectors are more for a bharat type player for the tests. But on the long run, I do have a gut feeling that KL Rahul will pick up wicketkeeping which will enable the team to go for another pure batsman.Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Link to comment

He's a dicey selection, but one worth taking provided our slips don't keep dropping dollies. In England the slips usually come into play more often than the keeper, so we need to catch everything that comes in that space. Also Kohli should GTFO the clip cordon, he's bebonic plague & makes everyone else drop sitters too. No one should forget that the last triple against us was his doing!

The last time we tried that (PP) it didn't work out as well as everyone hoped it would. DK also has a stellar record opening in England, without the gloves. So when Pant is picked he has to deliver with the bat & the gloves otherwise we'll lose the series pretty quickly. cowboysfan and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment
