Hard to explain his absence especially when Umesh himself is bowling in the low 130s. UrmiSinhaRay 1
R!TTER Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Like I said in the other thread - Ishant didn't seem 100% to me last test, the bigger question is why are the unfit guys still there - Ashwin, Pandya, BK etc. If these guys aren't match fit or match ready WTF are they doing there! This TM is beyond hopeless, let's hope their stupidity doesn't cost us the series UrmiSinhaRay 1
PSB_Zone Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 If they are going in with 2 spinners than either pandya or bhuvi was a must for 3rd pacer to shorten the tail.. Rahul should play, I dont hv prob with him. UrmiSinhaRay 1

JourneyMan Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Here I was hoping we would never have to see Umesh in an Indian shirt ever again.
fineleg Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 5+ players carrying niggle or injury. We are playing partially fit players in Tests, this is crazy.
Laaloo Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 10 hours ago, SrinjayDutta said: Another risky option is: play ashwin as pure 6.hanuma vihari could open and do 5th bowler. Umesh to be used in short bursts and jadeja as the workhorse. If such a match situation comes that ashwin can bowl 5-10 overs, bowl our champion spinners in tandem. In my view, ashwin + jadeja has always been far far more effective than their individual strengths. When they play together, the variation always draws mistakes from batsmen. Ashwin is only good against the windies. He doesn't score against anyone else. UrmiSinhaRay 1
Jimmypage Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 11 hours ago, fineleg said: Ishant Sharma has a niggle? Why is he rested when Tests are the only format he plays? Ishant is not rested, excerpt from Cricinfo Ishant experienced some left rib-cage discomfort and the team management did not want to risk him during this Test, with a spokesman saying he was "currently being assessed".

SrinjayDutta Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Ashwin is only good against the windies. He doesn't score against anyone else.He has potential :)Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
cowboysfan Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 If the pitch is dry like traditional SCG pitches then they will play Kuldeep.If its a different SCg pitch like i saw on Twitter than they will play spraygun and lose the match.
putrevus Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Team selecton has been one of the biggest weaknesses of Kohli.He and Shastri have been totally inept in assessing situtations and conditions. They have not been helped players getting inured either at the right time.Umesh as third seamer is such a risky option. Edited January 2, 2019 by putrevus
singhprakash72 Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Totally trust cheerleader with VK to goof up selection again ...playing UT will be disaster including KL...you already starting a test match with 1 less batsman and 1 less of a bowler
