Krunal will be useless outside the subcontinent

[putrevus]

People have to stop giving too much importance to IPL performances. I hope moronic selectors also think same way. In IPL even Dhoni will bat sometimes at 150 and above SR.It does not mean Dhoni is good in T20s.

What did Sundar do wrong? His career records look way better.

Do they play with whiteball in domestic cricket?

[bahubali]

Krunal batting against pace bowlers are downright pathetic. We need to bring in hacks who can play all kind of bowlers and in all directions.

[maniac]

A text book definition of the word bits and pieces.

 

A one dimensional darter and one dimensional subcontinental hack who sucks against short ball.

Jadeja's LOI career will son get over if Krunal continues to perform like this. Well deserved.

Don't fall for this numbers. He just darted the ball into righties by pitching halfway through. Not every day they are going to miss this. He absolutely did nothing special.

same thing was said in Aus and it happened again in NZ. The guy wud be lethal if their is some turn 

The guy has troubled ABDV big time and even kohli sometimes in IPL, easier said then done. Even a similar bowler imad wasim is doing well

Darts are  good option

on pacy pitch like this. He does flight the ball whenever there is enough turn on offer.  He is a clever  thinking bowler.

I think as a spinner this guy is like a notch above Jadhav. What happens is that teams go after him cause they see a means to score quick runs. He picks up some wickets in the process. You miss I hit bowler. 

 

Averages 11 with the bat and 20 with the ball in 5 away games in Aus and NZ. Not great numbers.

 

Maybe somebody like Krunal might be a fit in some lesser teams. But I feel India can do better.

How exactly is this a bad thing esp when he won 2 MOM in those 5 matches and has ONLY taken wickets of top 5 batsmen? You can hate on him, no issues but he's performed and earned his place.

 

BTW in these 5 T20s, he's taken most number of wickets among our bowlers. Not great numbers indeed.

If it was general washington instead, you would have no issues with it

Batsmen can’t play Krunal Pandya,Imad Wasim and Kedar Kadhav these days and @rkt.india was saying ViV Richards and Sunil Gavaskar were amateurs

DUde.. you dont have to be so "MI" Patriotic. We just call what we see it.  He got away with few drag downs y day.

[Straight Drive]

Excellent bowling. He could be a core player in T20i format if he gives such good performances consistently.

20 with the ball is bad? Hasn't got much chances to bat.

You mean the guy who started the trend of making a ball into triangle shape when there were no camera on? 

 

Give Vijay Shankar a triangle shaped ball and see how many batsman can smack him with tree sized bats
