ravishingravi Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 This team doesn’t look like it will even reach semi finals. All this IPL nautanki and not one set of 11 players who can seriously challenge for World Cup. And we don’t even know who those 11 players will be. Magar pyar bana rahey UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) recently having watched 4 teams namely Aus, SA, NZ and Pak, i can safely say Ind are not in a very bad position. One of the major problems is Dhoni, who is disturbing the balance of the XI as he is a liability as a batsman these days. Pandya coming back will be beneficial. However, Jadeja returning to the squad is a big worry. Edited November 16, 2018 by SK_IH Laaloo, UrmiSinhaRay, bowl_out and 4 others 1 6 Link to comment
ShoonyaSifar Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 All depends on whether the top 3, Bumrah, Kuldeep and Chahal can carry on their form in the last stages of the tournament. Team is more or less identified, if all are fit and available. Batsmen: Kohli, Rohit, Dhawan, Rayudu, Manish Pandey, Keeper: Dhoni Allrounder: Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya Spinners: Kuldeep, Chahal Pacers: Bhuvi, Bumrah, Khaleel, Shami/Umesh That's 14 players. 15th member could be one of Rahul/DK/Pant/Jadeja UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

One change though. DK or Pant will come in place of Manish Pandey as the fifth batsman / back up keeper. 15th spot could be Rahul or Jadeja UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Do share once you come to know :) Dhoni should have retired in 2014 and not played even 2015 WC. Here we are 6 months away from another WC and he's been made immovable by a team management and bunch of selectors which is in awe of him (or his business partners ) ably aided by the media which has no shame in publishing puff pieces like this https://www.timesnownews.com/sports/cricket/article/ms-dhoni-dreaming-of-playing-in-the-world-cup-ever-since-he-gave-up-captaincy-manager-arun-pandey/315029 https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/ms-dhoni-proves-he-is-a-man-with-a-golden-heart-watch/story-wEZjaoMQK49fben13kT6lM.html https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/ms-dhoni-shows-his-skills-on-the-kabaddi-floor/story-sgraisETSHW5YQEKWxhgPM.html Edited November 16, 2018 by ShoonyaSifar UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Aus could be excused as they got poor weather. Link to comment

But that should not be considered an achievement when there are hardly 3 decent ODI teams in cricket. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

ShoonyaSifar Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 To reach the WC semis, a team will need to win at least 6 out of the 9 matches they play. We should beat Afghanistan, WI, SL, Pak and Aus (if Smith and Warner are not there). Will need to win one of the matches vs Eng, SA and NZ which looks doable. Only way we will not go to semis if two of the top three totally lose their form. Can't see that happening. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Moochad Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Team is set pretty much barring injury. Big question in Krunal. If we can give him a 10 ODI run, we have have a true spin allrounder option to replace Jadeja and possibly Chahal UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
