Kohli coming in for Gill

Bumrah for Siraj

Bhuvi & Y. chahal sharing the 4th bowling spot depending on the condition

Kuldeep for 3rd bowling spot.

I want to see Pant in the squad. And Vijay Shankar should be back up of 4-5 and not Pandya. 

Yup.. Backup for Jadhav.. 

Pandya is a sureshot in the XI.

This should be the squad.. Going with Rayudu at 4.. Looks like he's here to stay till the WC...

Want to watch Shankar's performance for a few more matches.. I've been saying he is Jadhav's back up in the squad.. He needs a couple of more solid innings to make a case..

 

rohit
dhawan
kohli
rayudu
dhoni
jadhav
pandya
bhuvi
kuldeep
chahal
bumrah

 


dk
shami
two of shankar/jadeja/pant

I wouldnt mind seeing the same XI with the swap of Kohli for Gill.With the decline of Dhoni,we need more cover in the batting department.

We've always had a strong top order but the times when we've been truly formidable are when we've packed the side with batsmen(Natwest,World Cup 2011).We've had Kaif and Raina at 7,Compare with 2015 where Jadeja batted at 7.

Rohit

Dhawan

Kohli

Rayudu

Dhoni

Jadhav

Hardik

Kuldeep/Shankar/Krunal/Bhuvi

Chahal

Shami

Bumrah

 

This is gonna be the playing XI, let's learn to accept that.

No, bowling is light. 

 

4 bowlers need to be specialist wicket-taking bowlers ... Bumrah, Shami, Kuldeep, Chahal/Bhuvi (based on pitch)

 

5th bowler is Pandya. 6th is Jadhav.

 

Shankar if he gets opportunities and plays well in the coming few matches, he could be selected in the squad. He could be back up for Jadhav (no.6 bat, no.6 bowler) or one of the middle order bats (Rayudu, Karthik etc.). But for that, Shankar needs to have a few more really good games.

Go for broke with the 4 best wicket-takers we have: Bumrah, Kuldeep, Shami, Chahal. 

3 Best batsmen: Dhawan, Rohit, Kohli

WK: Dhoni

 

That is 8. 

2 All-rounders: Pandya and Jadhav

 

So a spot for 1 batsman is all that is left: most probably Rayudu.
