He's a misfit in that middle order

Yes but I think tweeting was bad decision IMO

I feel they're fast tracking him for WC19

It probably is a general tweet about the team .....not specific to him.

Hope he plays...

He referred it to himself only.

That doesn't really take away his talent though

Yeah it looks like it, pretty much clear with that tweet.

1st T20I 50 for Pant. Hopefully many more to come. Just needs to hold himself back for first 9-10 balls before going bang bang. Needs to improve his shot selection too.

[SUMO]

He is always looking to bludgeon the ball. Doesnt even maintain the shape or balance. Coach should ask him to start relying on timing more.

His tullebaazi in T20s reminds me of poor man's Raina.

Yes. I have noticed the same. Even with keeping, he sometimes moves to the wrong side and then stretches his arm to catch the ball one handed, away from body. He needs improvement in these areas to have a chance at consistent success

And a rich mans dhoni

He needs to believe his hitting capability,rotate strike ,get along and then he can charge once he is sets,

Just feel needs to play calmly for first 7-8 deliveries

Doesnt need to play ugly innovative shots like the one which undid him

He has the game to unsettle any attack

1 )   Pant goes for these all or nothing shots from time to time ... trying to be the first cricketer to hit the ball to the moon.   Not needed really as the boundaries are only 60 m to 75 m away.   And these shots often lead to his dismissals.   

 

And he tries some unnecessary innovations from time to time too, at stages in the match when this is not necessary.

 

His normal strokes are quite good and powerful ...  as he showcased in his test century in England.  He should stick to those.

 

2 )   He has a good offense and a decent defense.   Leaves the ball decently too.  But needs to up his strike-rotation-game, like he did in the early part of his innings yesterday.

 

These singles will ensure that he is not under pressure to manufacture strokes where there is none.

 

 

If he can make these 2 changes, he will improve his consistency and dependability drastically .

One positive....his running between wkts has improved and his understanding with dhawan was excellent.

I hate his slogger technique,you just have to watch Kohli to know that you dont have to throw the Kitchen sink at the ball EVERY time to score in LOIs.he sorely needs a good batting coach.
