IPL 2019- potential no.4 for the WC tracker

[Global.Baba]

Since  the slot is wide open, let us see how some of the “potential” contenders including wildcards stand up and perform. Pujara’s name was thrown in the mix but since he is not in the IPL here is a list of players.  Know it’s a different format but never say never with our selectors.

 

The ones in contention are obviously the ones that have been tried in recent times.

 

I am adding a few names who might play in that 3-5 position and impress enough to go to the WC

 

Here are some names that have the best shot:

Rahane- will open

Iyer- might bat at 3-4

Rayudu- will open 

Pandey- will bat at 4-5

DK- will bat at 5-6

Pant- will open

Shankar- will bat at 5-6

Rahul- will open

 

Can always be a possibility 

Yuvraj- will bat at 4-5

Raina- will bat at 3-4

 

Wild cards to keep a look out for

Karun Nair- will bat at 4

Hanuma Vihari- if picked will bat at 4-5

Prithwi Shaw- will open

Ishan Kishen- will bat at 3-4

Mayank Aggarwal- will open 

Shubman Gill- will bat at 4

Based on the list Iyer,Pandey and DK might get the best shot to impress in the middle overs.

Agree. The first two have to show up really big, like an orange cap. Pandey has ton in Aus

[Ankit_sharma03]

Hope SRH bats shankat at 3 or max 4, he showed in NZ he can use PP well 

Hope CSK bats rayudu down or else he like always will have a good ipl and a huge amount of runs to

[GautiMaan]

Thala Dhoni will stake his claim for number 4,Jadeja for number 5

[Global.Baba]

So far 

 

Rayudu- did ok in the context of yesterday’s game

 

Shankar- solid performance

 

Gill- impressive cameo

 

DK- failed with the bat

 

Raina- did ok in the context of the game

 

Pandey- didn’t get a proper chance

[Global.Baba]

Iyer- threw away a chance to make an impact

Nothing surprising. If team buys Yuvraj he starts in playing eleven at least in the beginning of the tournament. Not like Ishan is Kohli.

Probably wouldn't have been 2 years ago. Now Ishan Kishan is in the India 'A' team while Yuvraj already was a flop for RCB like 3 years ago.

[Mosher]

Pant has crashed the door open. But still would prefer him at 6. He would be perfect at that position atm. 

[Global.Baba]

Pant has raced ahead.

[Ankit_sharma03]

Pant n shankar did well - abhi tak sahi hai 

[bowl_out]

Good results so far :

Shankar vs Rayudu... Shankar did well

Pant vs DK... Pant has blazed ahead

Rohit's brother-in-law and yuvraj are known to be best friends.

[Ankit_sharma03]

tum likho na likho abhi tak shastri aur kohli ne yuvraj ka naam list men daal liya hoga

[Global.Baba]

Yuvraj- has a chance after this knock
