But the maximum any player has played in #4 is rayudu who has played only 14 knocks in that position and dropped thereafter. 70+ for each of them, right? This stat shows so much about why only top 3 are consistent. Link to comment

raki05 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Iyer don't instill confidence against fast bowlers that inturn put pressure and impacted his batting against spinners. We need a number 4 who can be fluid against fast bowlers and bash spinners. Need to find one such batsman asap. Real McCoy 1 Link to comment
ganeshran Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Even 350 is not safe on this pitch. I reckon 360 at the minimum is needed raki05 1 Link to comment

Suhaan Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 8 minutes ago, Cricwala said: Australia has stuck with Zampa as No. 1 ODI bowler, despite some ordinary performances...so he's developed confidence that he belongs, and now he keeps coming at you, even if he gets hit in some over. He doesn't have any special delivery, just good control. No batting or fielding talent to speak of either Here, we broke an uber-successful KulCha pair just on a whim, to strengthen lower order batting (needed, because of middle order muddle), and now both Kuldeep and Chahal look unsure about their bowling. Kohli was once adamant to have all 5 wicket takers in his loi line up but offlate got tempted to have lower order bowling allrounders who are always left redundant Link to comment

Way he murdered Lyon's bowling in Aus tour match in 2017 and his FC performances had me thinking he's top drawer against spin. I guess last great player of spin in ODIs we had was Gambhir.

Fool Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 13 minutes ago, ganeshran said: If Kuldeep is outbowled by an Aussie spinner in our own backyard it would be shameful The pitches arent gonna help his confidence to deliver though. It feels weird as an aussie witnessing an india team who is more afraid of spinners than we are. We have only ever had a couple of good spinners in our whole history. And have never been good at playing them. The current indian fear of spin really does baffle me. I just dont get it. GoldenSun 1 Link to comment

But 1 year later, after great success interspersed with few matches where attacking spinners went for runs (defensive spinners wld likely have gone for same or worse in those matches), he lost confidence in the strategy and decided to hedge his bets with 1 attacking & 1 defensive spinner per match. Worse, now's he unsure of who his no. 1 attacking spinner is, so both Kuldeep and Chahal bowl with added pressure every time they get a chance.
