None of the two are out of the world but deserve in playing 11. So if you can screw with their brain, You can get them out i.e impact overall performance. One kid whose brain cant be screwed with politics is is probably Prithvi Shaw. So lets not select Prithvi despite MoS performance in test series at highest S/R Props to Prithvi for showing mental toughness and grabbing the opportunity with both hands! The kid did very well in T20 too despite his short height and lack of power. If he had fallen cheaply, Kohli would have banished him to the bench faster than the ball reaching the batting crease. We need young players with similar mindset. Just block out the demons inside the head and in the dressing room and bring your A game to the table. I hope Pant gets selected in the next match and shows the world what he is capable of. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

But he has to start focussing on timing a bit more than power. Reminds me of one guy. Saurabh Tiwary. Don't want Pant go that way. Pant is a much better timer when he wants to . Thiwary was a complete hack . UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
jusarrived Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Unfortunately for pant , I think he will struggle in Aus even on flatter pitches it offers little bounce and not ideal for players like Pant , especially batsmen lower down the order its not easy to clear the boundary .

Global.Baba Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Rahul has been sabotaged to accommodate dostana be it Dhawan, Rayudu , Pant too as well for MS oldie with crap such as DK keeping or being dropped after 1 or 2 games, with Krunal showing a spark trust me his days are numbered too to accommodate Jadeja, we all saw how Sundar is almost obscure after winning man of the series in his first tournament. We have seen in the past Kuldeep being niggled for Chahal. This team is run by bureaucrats and people with personal interests. Jimmy Cliff, UrmiSinhaRay and Suhaan 1 1 1 Link to comment

I hope they wont drop him cos of his failure and still persist with him . Anyway personally I would have rested the likes of Rohit/Dhawan against easier opponents in past 1 year and opened with KL/Pant , could have eased them into lower order positions . Too late for that now . UrmiSinhaRay and Switchblade 1 1 Link to comment

Now if he is asked to change hope it doesn’t become a total 180 like Dhoni and start this whole consolidation bs you used the same double edged sword for dhoni UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

G_B_ Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Pant is the better option than DK but you cant blame the selectors. They have to go by what has been done in the build upto the WC. Knowing DK he will score heavily in build up and then flop at the tournament. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

ShoonyaSifar Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 We are expecting too much from these 20-21 year old youngsters and expect them to perform from day one just because they have done well in FC cricket/IPL. The test 100 vs England settled Pant the test batsman. Needs that similar knock in T20s/ODIs to get back on track. Also, can the team management tell him "you are playing the next 5 T20s (2 vs WI and 3 in Aus)". Tell him this and see his confidence go up. Also, for god's sake give the gloves to him. DK has played enough as a specialist fielder. Lets not ruin a young keeper's evolution in shorter formats like we are. UrmiSinhaRay and Adi BB 1 1 Link to comment

All starts from the team management which believes in chopping and changing just far too much. All younger guys face the brunt while the oldies continues to be there. Even someone like Kuldeep has not been spared. I hope they do not drop Pant and play Shreyas Iyer in rest of the T20s. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
