jf1gp_1 Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Sehwag - move rohit one down, kohli at 4. We then have a bowling option as well and no rayudu velu 1
Clarke Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 6 hours ago, zen said: we have Bumrah, Shami, Kuldeep and Chahal so would not waste "the one wish" on Zak Dravid can come in at #4 but do not see his usefulness vs someone like Sachin at #4 Dada can be a good option as someone who can lead, bat at #4 and bowl a few overs It's a wish, we all brainstorm and pick based on our preferences. I'd have Bumrah & Zak open the bowling and play Shami & 1 spinner initially. I picked Zak since he was the best new & old ball bowler I have seen play for India. The 2003 team had an in form pace trio which can be ramped up further with this idea. Dravid in my opinion was more flexible on batting position, Sachin preferred opening. Sachin is obviously a better batsman/bowler but I feel Dravid can contribute at least equally @ 4/5 when in form. Ganguly is the bigger misfit of my picks in the current team since he was also a solid opener and not keen on middle order. I assume he could get team selection in shape but it may go haywire in another direction as well.

chewy Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Zaheer Khan Bumrah + Zaheer - you got pace, miserly, Yorker specialists and ability to pick wickets in PP. And also in his prime Zaheer was handy with the bat. Still not found quality left arm quick after the cluster of Zaheer, Nehra, RP Singh, Irfan Rohit, Dhawan, Kohli, Rayudu, Dhoni, Shankar/Jadhav, Hardik, Kuldeep, Zaheer, Chahal, Bumrah Adi BB 1

R!TTER Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Yuvraj at his best was better than Kapil, over a much longer time period. Of course he was also playing for a better outfit, so keep that in mind.

Even historically, Zaheer is one of the best left arm fast bowlers of the world. However, our bowling is still not that bad. We can do well with having a solid middle order batsman. Sachin perhaps.
vayuu1 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 kapil, zaheer ,sehwag and kumble, Kapil gives you hitting power plus then you have a fantastic bowler and fielder, Kumble in place of chahal will complement kuldeep big time, Plus kuku sounds much better than kulcha, zaheer has all the tricks plus him and bumrah is a deadly combo, sehwag and Rohit can be a deadly combo plus sehwag is a wonderful offie as well. velu 1
vayuu1 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Also this should be strictly about players who have retired
vayuu1 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Also this line up could also have young tendu
vayuu1 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Tendu Sehwag Kohli Rohit Kapil Pant Pandya Kumble Zaheer Kuldeep zaheer 4 pace bowling option lot of spin bowling option attack for all conditions.
Norman Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Started watching world cups from the 2007 edition. So I'd say Yuvraj Singh.
Zero_Unit Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Yuvraj at his peak. Can bowl can bat and win you matches. Hell yeah!
ShoonyaSifar Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Yuvraj and Raina, both currently available, instead of the Rayudu, DK and Shankar. Raina is in fact younger than Dhawan, Rayudu and DK! If at all we need experience of grandpas (and average fielders), better to have oldies who have been WC winners for us. DHONI_FANN 1
