Vijay Shankar at 4 can be a good option


Recommended Posts

Posted

If we play Shankar at 4, we get 6th bowling option. He is a very solid player and when set can hit in the end .  He looks far more assured against Pace then Rayudu. Its given that dhoni will go in Wc so lets not even debate that but Making Shankar bat at 4 

Its gives us options like

 

Shankar

Dhoni 

Jadhav/pant/karthik 

Pandya 

 

Pant n karthik gets into picture . Pant is a leftie and karthik is the cameo king a good player for no.6 . Jadhav has been good but not in every situation

Rayudu aint going anywhere... He has Kohli's backing.. been scoring runs.. so no debate practically speaking..

Dhoni at 5.. Again Kohli has been saying this for a while..

Shankar can be a good No. 6.. 

Pandya at 7.

One decent innings.  

 

Two threads on ICF.  More to come.  

 

Reactionary knee-jerk children.

its never about 1-2 innings, its about signs n how players play. Sometimes u can see a talent even in 20-30 runs. He has been gr8 in domestic n was damn good in A-tour .

Is it just me or does anyone else feel he is a predominantly leg side batsman.. His go to shot seems to be to shuffle across the stumps and flick/drive it through mid-wicket

Awful bowler like Dubey.  Is like a 70 mph bowling machine, will get wrecked in wc

 

But can bat and always said can bat.  But his bowling at best is 6th option max, not sure thats enough to warrant being in white ball team?

 

Jadhav bowling is tragic as well, has got away with it so far but in big games these 2 bolwing could be game changers, game changers to help us lose that is

At least give credit to the guy at 4 who saved us 

they all saved us in some way ....it was a team effort but the guy has struggled in both series despite numbers

yaar ye sab likh kya ukhaad lete ho, fact diya kro apne opinon ke 

Between Shankar and Pandya that is 100+ gauranteed runs for opposition. Proper bowlers and they get maybe 70.

Again watch some cricket - pandya n shankar toghther if gives 100+ runs is fine as their eco wud be 5-6 which is fine from 5th n 6th bowler in addition they bat n field superbly saving 10-20 runs in field so that 100 becomes 80-90 ....

 

Now had u been watching these games u wud have seen rayudu leaks 4-10 runs in field + drop catches

Now umesh yadav alone gives 70 + runs

Indian bowlers conceding 60 or more runs most time in Odis

25 times in 188 inn Agarkar 13.29%
25 times in 191 inn Zaheer 13.08%
23 times in 117 inn Nehra 19.65%
20 times in 72 inn Umesh 27.77%

 

Stat worth adding in for this circle

 

 

This is how much umesh yadav leaks runs , pandya n shankar cant even come close to leaking runs like umesh......infact get u19 kids they wont leak as many

This is what you call blind hate. Not even willing to acknowledge his inning. He also got runs in 3rd ODI. Today was a great game, middle order truly came to the party then bowlers did well. It was a fantastic win.

How ? he is actually opposite of hack. Does not play cross batted lets the lateral movement finish and plays late.

Why not have a proper bowler and get a sub 5 numbers? Is that a difficult concept.
