Zero_Unit Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Hellicoptor was the solution for 3 and 4. Sole reason why the hole looks so big today. sandsaims, Stan AF and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 1 Link to comment

Some days they can go horribly wrong. yeah. our spin is okay. two good wristspinners in kulcha. jaddu is not very suited for ODIs, but he has not done too badly since his comeback. I wish we had a decent offie though. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Do we really need sixth bowling option? So far the only hole I see is Dhoni. If that spot is plugged by karthick we are half way there. Of the 5 bowlers jadeja, Bumrah, yadav, Shami are must. 5th bowler I am not sure of (No Ashwin/No Pandya). Against Asian teams it should be a pace option aagainst others it should be spin. Too early to pick a team though. Edited January 12, 2019 by Khota UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

You take a sixth bowler you lose a batsman. You need minimum of 5 batsman with substantial contribution from keeper. Short answer: I am not so sure we need 6th bowler. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

vayuu1 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Most important issue is bench strength which is not being played, we consistently play Chahar or kaul, even Siraj has dropped pace, where as bowlers like rajpoot, Chaudhary, mavi, avesh, Siraj, Saini are picking wickets also we need a pace bowling allrounder apart from Pandya, guys like kishan, Pant, gill, shaw, should have been part of this setup UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

If you are looking for someone like Raina I have no problem but I do expect the 5 to complete their quota win or lose. Link to comment

That comes with the territory and you cannot do anything about it. Raina was an example I gave, not necesarrily to select him. It all depends on his form. Still few months left, Link to comment
