Karnataka and Mumbai Lobby selections without performance

[G_B_]

apart from kohli and pujara , 5 of the top 7 average in an around 40 in their careers. Ashwin at one point used to average 40 is now under 30.

 

At one point you had Rahane averaging 48 with Kohli and Pujara close to 50. Ashwin averaging 40. Vijay around 42/43.

 

In terms of averages this is one of the poorer teams in the past few decades, but maybe its more a sign that mega run fests are not the par this era. England are the same as india. Barring Root everybody is averaging under 40. Buttler, Stokes Bairsrtow Moeen. They have replaced batsman who average highly with allrounders so that they bat deep and have a lot of options with the ball.

 

I think its time to suggest that players who average 40 in this era are players who average 45 in the prior era. Need a new yardstick.

Vijay is a failure.

 

Rohit and rahul are toss ups. If they dont perform in the next test they should be out. Vijay should definitely be out.

Vijay was already out if not for the freak injury to Shaw.  And likely will be out as soon as Shaw is available.
