It is a pity after performing so well for India A, Siraj was not included. He is pacy, reached top speed of 149.94 km/h in the IPL. Has a good bouncer as well. and can move the ball both ways as well as he did in England for India A and at home. zen 1 Link to comment
sandeep Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm not a fan of Vihari selection. Apparently he can bowl a bit? Link to comment

prudent_kreeda Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I think he started bowling with hard ball only 3 years or so. If he can build up further stamina wise would be great. So if he does use another 3-4 months time to get even more stronger and build stamina nothing like it as he is not selected now. he should be provided all the help and managed well so that by Aus tour , he must in contention in playing X1. But don't drag this A team business for too long and kill him. He must be given a chance in test vs WI - atleast one test express bowling 1 Link to comment
test fan Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 people should stop barking about Siraj selction ,he is nothing special either version of may be umesh .he just played against low qwality A teams thats it .shami can rip through any batting line up in one spell, i knew he leaking some runs but its least worry , for next two match same team should play and thats the right combination for us .

Not just numbers , has some spunk too .. Lets see .. Sanath Kumar, now part of the India Under-19 and India A set-ups as bowling coach, has had a ringside view of Vihari the batsman in a two-year term as Andhra coach. "He is very strong square of the wicket on both sides, and that is a direct sign of good back-foot play," Sanath told ESPNcricinfo. "His picking of lengths is a great strength; it gives him more time to play his shots. "In the 2017-18 red-ball season, he worked a lot on his bat-swing, playing straight and close to the body, in tough conditions. His discipline to leave and eliminate those extravagant drives got him the runs. If you purely go by the numbers, many others may have outscored him, but in terms of quality, he was right up there. In the shorter versions, there was some reluctance to bat higher initially, but his strike rates have improved tremendously without making a compromise on his methods." Link to comment

R.D forever Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Goodbye and thank you Vijay. Seems a bit unfair when rahane and pujara are given lots of opportunities but vjijay is dropped after one failure. Still remember his fighting innings vs SA in 3rd test. Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I agree with dropping Kuldeep though. You simply can't go at 5 an over without picking up wickets. Wrist spinners in tests are overrated unless they combine ripping turn and accuracy. Better to have finger spinners for control . But the lack of inclusion of Pacers is shocking. Link to comment
Number Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) I dont think this new selection committee would have got them without captains consent. The plan seems to be to phase out Pujara and prob Dhawan too. Time for both of them to perform or go. Edited August 22, 2018 by Number Link to comment
prasen82 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Shaw is for dhawan. Vihari for pujara. If they do not have anything of substance in next two tests its curtains. Kl rahul will also be on notice. Rahane still has time . If he fails in next two then mayank could come in as well and kl would be in rahanes place Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 2 more batsmen but no pacers? Our selectors are fuging chewtiyas. Man, even a 5 year old kid can select better. What the hell. Lannister and RAZPOR 2 Link to comment

Kuldeep should not have been dropped. Its good to have wrist spinning option. Will Ashwin recover by next match? He needs to slog for at least 2 more years in domestic cricket for growth and development ... or something like that. Edited August 22, 2018 by Brainfade Link to comment
