No 50 kab se performance ho gayi, he played all games yet just above bowlers only.

It doesn't include the matches against NZ XI. He had scored one 50 and his strike rate was 3rd to Shaw and Samson.

you make them play in that roles.. if needed have a longer challenger series tournament than playing these meaningless state vs state games..  

 

Create a challenger series that mirrors IPL on a lower scale.. make players look up to that tourney.. let players know that they will be picked based on the position they bat..  so a vacant 5/6 slot will only go to someone who bats in that position. Theres huge difference between a number 4 vs 6..  understand that

Challenger Series should be a short tri-series between Indian national team, India 'A' and India 'B'. Promote it just like you would an international series.

Indian ODI XI should be:-

 

Rohit

Gill/Agarwal/Dhawan

Kohli

Iyer

Rahul(wkt)

Pandya(not sure he gets in as specialist bat)

Jadeja

Saini

Shami

Chahal

Bumrah

Pandya/Jadeja at 6/7 is a recipe for disaster.

Then play Samson or Pant at 6. Pandya can't be in XI just for his batting.

Rohit

Samson

Kohli

Gill

Iyer

Rahul (will be perfect for collapse or attack)

Pandya

Bhuvi

Saini/Kuldeep/Deepak Chahar depending on conditions. Rotated with Saini or Bhuvi

Bumrah

Chahal

Rahul at six is too late. He bats in top four or he doesn’t play. All sounds nice and creamy to stack up and give the chance to every youngster but if that makes Rahul move to six, then its a waste of a good batsman and overdose. Might as well rotate the youngsters and keep Rahul in top 4 or max 5.

I trust Rahul at 6 more than say Samson or Pant who are Top 3 material and can’t do the no.6 hitting or play the rebuilding game . While it may be harsh on him as he has capacity to smash some records if he bats in the top 3, he should make the sacrifice like his fellow Karnataka Rahul who did that for us.

this is the kind of team opposition thrives on....just names collected together not strategy nothing 

 

  • 0 left hander
  • no 6th bowling option, even with full fit pandya 6th bowling option is must and now he comes back from  injury. Every team has 6 bowling options its a must 
  • player batting out of their best position makes them half a player. Rahul n iyer batting in wrong positions   
  • then 2 stack of similar batsman together Rohit-samson, gill-kohli 

 

this is where we disagree u pick names vs  i pick roles

 

bat rohit, kohli in wrong even their career wont have been same. Yuvi became yuvi when he was promoted. Why wud anyone waste a player like rahul who has the potential to play an ABDV kind of game 

 

Collapse or attack batsman is best suited at 4

A bunch of Indian batsmen have made a case for themselves in the IPL this season and we're only into the second week. Who do you think would be the best choice for India at No. 6?
 
1. Pant: Has played for India and has scored runs at domestic and IPL level. Yet doesn't inspire confidence in LOIs. You think it's only a matter of time before he loses his wicket going for an ugly slog or one-handed hoick to cow corner. Also doesn't inspire confidence in a situation where India loses early wickets and he has to stay at wicket and build a big partnership, but he seems to be working on that.
 
2. Kishan: Hasn't scored as much runs at domestic or IPL as Pant but is capable of clearing the boundary and destroying attacks on his day. Performance overseas is a question mark. Also seems more suited at No. 4 or 5 rather than 6.
 
3. Samson: Also hasn't scored big runs at domestic or IPL but has a lot of potential. His big hitting makes him perfect for No. 6 and can also be bat like a top order player if wickets are lost early, but he's never been consistent.
 
4. Suryakumar Yadav: Has performed very well at domestic but not as much at IPL. Capable of scoring quickly making him an ideal No. 6 but he's not getting any younger.
 
5. Rana: Has performed at IPL but not as much in domestic cricket. Capable of hitting big shots and his off-spin is a plus, but it's questionable whether he's done enough to deserve an India call-up over others.
 
Anyone else?

Need a batsman with bowling skills to aid team in crucial situation...

 

India has too many one dimensional batsmen who don't have any bowling ability whatsoever...

 

Hardik is not a 5th bowling option.. nd now after his injury he hasn't bowled .. 

 

That's why we keep on seeing jadeja continuously making into playing 11 even after his sh!t pie chucking...

 

Dearth of a genuine all rounder is going to plague indian loi team for some time in future.
