asterix Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 With dickhead batting line up... you expect Pandya to be dropped?There are bigger idiots in the batting order than Pandya... Sort them out first...Sort Dhawan out first... zen 1 Link to comment
Clarke Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I bet Pandya would have got some wickets under clouds on day 3 as well. He only bowled under the sun on day one. zen and express bowling 2 Link to comment
express bowling Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Pandya has batted with more grit and better technique in this test than all our batters apart from Kohli. And batting has not been easy ... with the ball swinging a lot for a significant part of the game and there being a bit of seam movement too.

GautiMaan Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 The kid is showing heart and application.If the same could be said of others we would have won this game zen and express bowling 2 Link to comment
sarcastic Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Pandya is showing what his role is in this series. To bat responsibly with the tail and score valuable runs... IF not for him, we would have already lost this match! zen and express bowling 2 Link to comment
asterix Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Just drop him... he’s no role to play in this shyte team.. Link to comment
shortbread Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Drop Pandya, get a specialist batsman or bowler in. He wont be useful in these conditions. Link to comment
prasen82 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) are you freaking kidding me... he played much better than the other specialist batsman... he wants to win.. i will take him just for that... drop Dhawan and banish him from overseas test, get pujara in, umesh out bumrah in. if we need to get kuldeep in get murli vijay out and push maybe DK to open. put rahane on notice. but pandya has more than redeemed himself.

chewy Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Still support him playing Tests, but seemed out his depth in this match, once again had an opportunity to see India past the line, probably not the finisher type you want better to play Pant in next place Seeing Curran taking wickets and runs makes it more fustrating Link to comment
SK_IH Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Will drop him and get a specialist in Link to comment

sandeep Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) 14 hours ago, UnknownGenius said: Not really. His 10 overs for 46 runs were. Ahuge negative. We could have had England out for around 250 if not for Pandya leaking runs and releasing pressure You didn't watch his bowling then. 2-3 boundaries came off genuine edges. And he gave a couple more in that phase when Bairstow and Root were kicking it up a notch. He actually bowled decent in the 1st dig. And I say that as someone who wanted Jadeja/Kuldeep ahead of him in this test. Edited August 4, 2018 by sandeep express bowling and diehardpacer 2 Link to comment
shortbread Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Switch Pandya with Jadeja, both hit and miss with the bat. But Jadeja is a useful bowler and India's best fielder. Jadeja has his place in the Indian set up, just not in ENgland. His bowling is too sterile for English batsmen, easy to score off. Link to comment
zen Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) What is heartwarming is that Pandya did all the difficult things: * Bowled in the first inning, when Ishant and Yadav were struggling to provide support. However was not bowled when conditions were more favorable * Scored 22 to bring momentum back to Ind when the specialist batsmen fell like pins * Should have come in ahead of Ashwin and Karthik or may be even at 5, but came in way down to score the gritty 31 As I have been saying, considering the current strength of our team, its performance depends upon heroics of players like Pandya .... Only if we had 2 Pandyas in the 11 what a player! .... will be supporting promising players like Pandya, Kuldeep and Pant in the series Edited August 4, 2018 by zen diehardpacer, sandeep and tweaker 3 Link to comment

He made few runs but there are proper bats who can outdo him. Simple question if he cannot take wkts what is he doing in the team? our bowling has already taken 20 wkts in last 4 test , where is it being hurt The only ones that our hurting our bowling are fielder who are dropping cacthes Link to comment
