Kartikey Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Now that SRT is injured, one place is free in the middle order, with RD, VVS and SG taking the other 3. In all likelyhood, the No.6 position will be between these 2 unless they decide to play 5 bowlers, so who is your choice? Yuvi or Kaify??
msb1991 Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 I feel that there should be a third option on the poll, since it is not impossible for India to pick Irfan Pathan and go with the five bowlers.
ICFtoday Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 If its going to be a flat pitch just like the one we had at Chepauk then we could play either one of these. Kaif has done very well in the domestic season and desrves a call. but yuvi has the potential to break loose on dead pitches. both are equally good according to me but given a choice, kaif might be a fair choice since yuvi has already been given a chance in australia. mind you, this test will not be a test of their potential. i hope india dont play 5 bowlers at ahmedabad.
theguyinallblue Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 i just hope Ahmadabad pitch is a sporting wicket...not a dead pitch... otherwise if Yuvi gets a chance to play in XI..he will score some decent runs..and then we will have to see him play next 10 matches ..doing modeling on the pitch and scoring ducks..
Dravid Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 has to be yuvi... atleast he will score faster... we dont need another dravid/vvs in our team-->kaif
graphic23 Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 I'd like Kaif. I haven't watched him play in a while. Yuvraj, until he starts fielding sharply and at point, is not ready for any cricket, I feel. He's just too good a fielder to not focus on regaining fitness and field at point again. So, in view of that, I'd like to see Kaif and hopefully, he'll be able to take full advantage of this.
fineleg Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Indian pitches - flat track (Test) bullies will be up for selection. Yuvi will play ahead of Kaif. YS will likely score in Indian pitches.
Rohan495 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Has to be Yuvraj or it will make the indian selection panel look stupid for selecting yuvraj in the first place.
Rohan495 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Pathan. he should play for sure in place of harbhajan
Desi Cartman Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Will - Yuvraj Should - Kaif I agree :hatsoff:
Mr. Wicket Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 he should play for sure in place of harbhajan They stuck with him for ages while he was averaging 40-50 per wicket, now that he's just taken 8 on a flat track do you really think they'll boot him?
Ram Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 The last time Yuvraj played a test match, he blazed to an outstanding innings of 160. It simply doesnt make ANY sense to select someone who hasnt played test cricket for nearly two years now, over him, in the team.
Laaloo Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 The last time Yuvraj played a test match in INDIA' date= he blazed to an outstanding innings of 160. It simply doesnt make ANY sense to select someone who hasnt played test cricket for nearly two years now, over him, in the team. FIXED :D
sm332 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 neither ... play a fifth bowler if it is another patta .. otherwise it really shouldnt be either but I reckon it wont matter much either way
Ram Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 73% of the respondents believe Kaif should bat at no.6 !?! Mind-blowing !
