gakgupta Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Well.... We found our number 4 batsmen... This guy is absolutely unbelievable.... Shame that he was not groomed earlier.... Sent from my Nokia 6.1 using Tapatalk Unstable Joe and tweaker 1 1
gakgupta Posted January 24, 2020 Author Posted January 24, 2020 Getting 50+ runs from 28 balls is not a huge achievement....But doing it while chasing is not a joke.....that too with successful chaseSent from my Nokia 6.1 using Tapatalk nevada 1
Frustrated Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 But But he can't hit huge sixes. Coz he does not hv the Pull shot. LOL. Global.Baba 1
Sgattick10 Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Career defining knock, hope he is given a long uniterrupted run now. I am excited, want to see this 11 in T20s now Rahul Padikkal Kohli Dubey Iyer (finisher role) Pant Pandya Rahul Chahar Kuldip Saini Bumrah Lannister 1
neel roy Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 dont know if anyone will agree but saw flashes of ABD today in Iyer.They way he was manipulating,shuffling..it becomes a nightmare for bowlers..and his placement..i guess the 3rd odi against Aus has given him lot of confidence.. nitinbwj, nevada, Global.Baba and 1 other 1 3

express bowling Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Really liked the fact that Iyer took responsibility today.and won us the game. He played a mature innings and paced it well. Well done ! Vijy and Mosher 2

He has this gift of making a mockery of asking rate. Something we have been missing for a long time. Combination of Pandya and Iyer will be devastating. We gave chances to guys like Rayudu, Shankar, DK, Pant over him. It was criminal. putrevus, bowl_out, Frustrated and 1 other 1 3

SK_IH Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 You never know with whims and fancies of Virat. Nothing is certain with that clown in charge, especially considering T20 world cup is 10 months away, that's enough time for captain doofus to try two different players at no.4 lol The Dark Horse, WC2011INDIA, Unstable Joe and 3 others 4 1 1
nitinbwj Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Clean intelligent hitting and he took the pressure of pandoo too. Great knock. Kohli fell at 121 and Dube at 142.We usually lose from that position. He knocked off the runs with ease.
RajBan Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 If Dube can also scale up, imagine our 4-7 T20 line up could be Iyer, Pant, Pandya, Dube. A perfect combination in terms of high SR, couple of people who can play the role of 5th bowler and a R-L-R-L combination to screw up opposition.

SUMO Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Stop this obsession with short ball. Steve waugh, ganguly, sehwag are greats without playing hook/pull ever in perth or wanderers Frustrated, nevada and Unstable Joe 3

Steve waugh, ganguly, sehwag are greats without playing hook/pull ever in perth or wanderers I think no one was saying that Iyer should not be given chances . The fact that there is an apparent weakness against quality short bowling and he was getting out to them without any counter strategies . You can have a weakness but you should not get out to that tactic and should have the ability to rotate strike and get way . All of Steve , Ganguly , Sehwag did not give their wickets and cashed on other deliveries . B'lore match was the first time he changed his stance , opened up the off side and tried attacking shots other than hook. Thats what he should just continue and in the mean time perfect pull shots , as the next attempt by pacers is to aim at his rib cage and bodyline attack to prevent him his shots on off side and if can unleash controlled pull shots on the on side along with his present off side play , surely he will make bowlers think hard ! There is no need to even play the hook. Just wait & prey on other deliveries.
