      Rana has serious issue with short ball. You again see same issue even in today;s match too. NO at this moment .

Yeah he's struggling in the A series. But we don't have any batting all-rounders besides those two. Jadhav don't look like an athlete to me and he's old. He is not the answer.

Not sure why people forget how two bowling all rounders floored India in World Cup 2015 Semi-final, more recently David Willey did the same for England

Faulkner and Mitchell Johnsen, smashed Indian bowlers in death overs to power Aus past 300

 

you want to go past 300 and even reach 350, your number 6, 7 and 8 need to be capable six hitters. Likes of Ashwin and Bhuvi won’t go at 130-40 strike rates even though are capable batsmen

Which could have been avoided if the bowlers did their primary jobs of taking wickets.

We have 2 may be three regular wicket takers in ODIs. Bumrah, Kuldeep and to a certain extent Bhuvi. Bhuvi for all his exploits lags a lot behind Bumrah in wicket taking, IMO. Chahal extracts good spin but he has to still work on bowling tighter lines and not giving freebies.

 

What BCCI needs to do is fortify the bowling department with more strike bowlers who are capabale of taking wickets at regular intervals. Or else

 

KISS the next World CUP, Goodbye.

Too early to say for KP for WC '19 but he is worth.I am also impressed with Jalal saxsena.still long way  to go for new seasons.

We need two batting all-rounders who can also bowl 10-12 overs. I am not sure about Krunal's batting as he looks more suited for T20s. Nitish Rana or Deepak Hooda, depending on the form, should get a look into. 

Even k Gotham looks good not sure about odi though. But guy have fighting spirit, only thing lacking is winning mentality and he ll be all set for selection.

Yes, for Tests and T20s bowling all-rounders are needed cause you will be looking to take wickets. But in ODIs, you need batsmen to stay till 50 overs, hence batting all-rounders are preferred.

With pitches being flat for WC, any bowler is going to get tonked. We would need a squad like england consisting of batting all rounders . 

5 solid batsman

2 batting all rounders with decent bowling stats

1 bowling allrounder

3 good bowlers. 

 

I don't think bhuvi or ashwin or jadeja  will fall into batting allrounder category. One is hardik and other we need to find out. 

 

Bowling all rounder should have strike rate above 120. And i am not confident of bhuvi here.  Shreyas gopal or krunal could fit here. Or maybe nagarkoti.

 

Batsman are kl rahul,Dhawan,kohli,rohit, DK/Dhoni

Hardik 

*open batting a/r* - only jadhav fits bill.

Krunal/nagarkoti/shreyas

Kuldeep/ashwin/jadeja/chahal

Bhuvi/Prasiddh/Khaleel

Bumrah
