I like young batsmen from WI, they are super talented for shorter formats.Hetymeyer and Pooran look awesome.

until they play for RCB where they become talentless 

[SK_IH]

This is why I think Pant not in class of Hetmyer as a talent. This Hetmyer is brutal.

We are minnows remember?

Hetmeyer just needs to rein himself, he will be next superstar from WI.He has such wide variety of strokes, I don't see any young Indian batsmen who are in this guy's class.

[Ajju]

Feel hetymer and pooran has more quality than Pant 

[vvvslaxman]

What is with Pant's laugh.  We are getting our sh** canned. He should stop yelling.

[nitinbwj]

287 looks like a joke at the moment..

Hetmyer is down. Our secret weapon, the Chennai weather making an impact

I wonder this is why Shai Hope's strike rate is in the 70s. When you've got guys like Hetmyer , Pooran, Lewis etc , all he has to do is hold the innings together. Like how Root does for England. 

[vvvslaxman]

India needs 5 wicket takers. Atleast one of them will work. This is pathetic.

On hetmeyer... This guy is miles above pant when it comes to stroke play.. looks easy on the eyes & has evry shot in the book.. only issue is in his temperamenta..

 

sometimes tries to go murdering the ball from the start go.. when he doesn't even need to.. in today's inning he was batting over a stike rate of 100 from the set go.. without breaking any sweat.. no ugly leg side hoicks a la pant.. no fidgeting early on innings..Jst plain authoritative stroke play.. he was picking his bowlers today.. going berserk on jadeja, dubey to hand his team an advantage..

Pandya brings balance into the team.. i agree he is mediocre when compared to our front line seamers.. however evn in his mediocrity.. he won't be able to scale  the level of run of the mill bowling of dubey, jaddu & jhadav.. 

 

With pandya in.. u can play both kulcha together.. then u hv 4 wicket taking bowlers into the team with shami & bumrah as ur frontline pacers..

 

& For finger spinners.. team india really need to get over the sir jadeja syndrome. Washington sundar & jadeja won't cut it.. need to find some other finger spinners from domestic cricket... Who can contribute both with bat & ball... K gowtham & axar patel should be given a chance.

Pandya has to be fourth seamer not the third seamer.Ideally they have to play three seamers plus Pandya plus Kulcha.This is best bowling lineup but it makes batting weak that is the lack of balance in this Indian team.
