Dependable means he will win it for us.

He is playing the role assigned to him. If he bats higher, he will get big scores as well .... Right now, he is in the Rohit-Dhawan bracket and on his way to becoming #2 LOI batsman for Ind  

You say Number 6-7 role is to be bits and pieces player, and then compare him to Kapil paaji

Chk, bhuvi scored 32 of 30.

And guess what, looking at scorecard, i guessed it was India and D/N game

Afridi used to use that excuse- flop with the ball then batsman flop with the bat then bowler

[vvvslaxman]

If only we could have found someone like Yuvraj singh. It would have been awesome. Jadhav is a weird batsman. Some of his lazy dismissals are cringeworthy like last match. There is nothing secure about his batting.

Why would I care about comparing him with Kapil Dev, who only avgs 24 in ODIs? If there is a topic on it, I will give my 2 cents

And then he has to do well by standing on one leg

Kapil Dev played the greatest ODI  innings ever. Ravindra Jadeja averages more than a lot of 80s batsmen too, is he better?

If Pandya would have played it, you will say it is fluke .... and that he did not stand on one leg when he played that

Yes because Pandya has not smacked bowling attacks like the WI bowling lineups and Bob Willis  etc. 

 

Pandya is just a better version of Phehlukwayo Ashraf,Mitch Marsh  and Neesham at the moment. He is not even at Stokes level yet

Jadhav, still give more confidence. Pandya is ahead of Bhuvi with bat and behind him with ball. When did he ever complete his quota of 10 overs?

I think i give a crap about if Pandya plays or karane jaaye. People will also do same as soon as thala gang leaves the team. Till then, Pandya will remain competitive

Pathan was promoted as pinch hitter so Dhoni had to bat at 7. Otherwise would have batted at 6. He also had cushion of Raina at 8.

Pandya is on his way to becoming the 2nd most valuable wkt for Ind in LOIs .... 30 mins of Pandya and the game could be over for the other team

Only issue with Pandya is he hasn't played enough FC /domestic cricket and scored those big runs to have the mindset of a batsman. He's good for 30s and 40s but can he up his game and start scoring 60s and 70s and eventually target scoring some 100s across formats? That will be his challenge in the days ahead.
