express bowling Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) We were 173 after 30 overs. Teams are supposed to double their scores from there. Should have scored 346 Scored 324 Due to our poor middle order. Edited January 26, 2019 by express bowling Tendulkar1996, UrmiSinhaRay and themask 2 1 Link to comment

chewy Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Whats worrying Sodhi econony rate was 4 They struggled against Zampa too express bowling 1 Link to comment
Clarke Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) One would have to tolerate Dhoni since there seems to be no way to remove him. Rayudu @ 4 is inexcusable. Idiot Rahul couldn't hold on to the position and this guy will scrape some runs to get to the WC. Edited January 26, 2019 by Clarke saik, SK_IH, Laaloo and 2 others 5 Link to comment

Straight Drive Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The middle order was horribly exposed in Asia Cup 2018. Afghanistan tied the match by choking the Indian middle order batsmen in Dubai. Kiwis have horribly exposed it again in last ODI. It's not that this middle order is just suspectible to swing.

Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Sharma and Dhawan out for 12 runs. Middle order has a chance to prove it's worth today. Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Gill needs to improve on strike rotation against international bowlers and against much better fielding. It's not gonna be the same as it is at Under 19. Needs to raise the game level. But then even experienced campaigners like Sharma and Dhawan look clueless, so its not surprising to see Gill the inexperienced batsman struggle as well. He can't play shots in air straight into the hands of the fielders. Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Dhoni out for 1. Once again it shows that if Sharma, Dhawan and Virat have not contributed or are missing, the others are following the procession. In WC it's all about how many Sharma, Dhawan and Kohli. Have little expectations from the rest. Link to comment
Stan AF Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Start one more thread. Top order against swing. mishra 1 Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Today the batting is deep with Pandya at 8. Seems team management have also realized we need to pack up more batsman to cover the middle order weakness. Guess it's proved that if it does not swings we need little contribution from others as Sharma, Dhawan and Kohli will score tons. When there is swing , the others apart form those 3 are also not going to do anything with he bat. Even 200 looks doubtful now. Forget a 320 on the pocket sized NZ grounds. Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Rayudu contributing with 63 and still unbeaten. Saves the middle order collapse today. Decent contribution by Shankar as well. Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 18/4 to 202/6. Middle order has done a rescue act for sure today. Rayudu - 90 Shankar - 45 Jadhav - 34* Link to comment

Why are you forgetting the top 3, they're not doing so great when it swings even a little & when it hoops around Link to comment
