fineleg Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If we do the same batting order we cannot expect anything but another 10-2 No harm in trying Rishabh Pant and if same result then fine. But incase he gets a quick 25-30, then atleast a little bit of momentum And KLR can play at #6 old ball. CSK Fan, anish2tweet, Laaloo and 1 other 4 1 1 Link to comment

No, what is the use of same Vijay+KLR in second inn, lets try something different (with options we have). Try for a quick start from Pant at top of the order, and maybe KLR can score some runs down the order if he doesnt have to face the burden of opening the innings? Just for this 2nd Innings - the temporary change I'm suggesting. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

GautiMaan Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Once they've selected the team Kohli and Shastri go into ultra conservative mode I dont see them changing the batting order. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
rtmohanlal Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 No .... if any Pujara and Vijay should open and try to play out at least 10 overs as possible with out losing a wicket at any cost. Even if they do not score a single run in this phase , that wouldn't hurt. I think this will give the platform for the rest of the chase.

rtmohanlal Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 as I said earlier , it is far worthy to take a risk with both Pujara and Vijay opening and taking off the shine of the ball AEAP than the guaranteed result of opening with Vijay-Rahul .... UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Trichromatic Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 1 hour ago, fineleg said: Ok, that's a fair point. I guess there is no alternative then, Pujara and Kohli will battle a very tough 10-2 situation again in 4th Inn. That's how it has been in test cricket. No matter how good batsman your keeper is, he isn't given opening slot or even top 3 on regular basis. It's very difficult to concentrate on batting with 10 mins of break after squatting for 100 overs. ODIs and T20Is are different. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Straight Drive Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Rishabh Pant isn't a good option as he has to keep then come again to bat soon and its better to leave opening to specialist bat.Try other new openers than recycling players like Dhawan. Link to comment
