Let's first choose s first 11 for T20Is, so that we can consider all others as backups. (  This is not necessarily my personal choice but what selectors choose  

 

1. Rohit ... Will be there, no matter what

2. Rahul / Dhawan .... still there

3. Kohli

4. Iyer / Pandey ... keeps getting picked

5. Pant 

6. Hardik 

7. Jadeja / Sundar 

8. Saini / Shardul ... keeps getting picked

9. Bhuvi / D.Chahar

10. Chahal / Kuldeep when in form

11. Bumrah / Shami 

 

 

 

Let's make a 2nd T20I 11 .... Let's pick just youngsters 

 

1. Gill

2. Shaw / Mayank

3. Padikkal

4. Samson

5. Kishan 

6. Tewatia 

7. Dube / Samad

8. R.Chahar / Bishnoi

9. Prasidh ... his form is not known 

10.  ?

11. ?

 

 

We indeed don't have good backup pacers for T20Is.

 

Nagarkoti and Mavi are coming back from big injuries. And they haven't started theif careers properly yet. Their ability and form for T20s are not known yet. Siraj can be too erratic on days. 

 

 

Let's inspect the  " / " players in the first team.

 

Dhawan ... should not be there.

 

Pandey ... not a consistent oerformer in T20s

 

Sundar .... Bowling good,  but his big hitting ability is not consistent yet.

 

Thakur .... poor

 

D.Chahar ... ok, but has little death bowling experience and not trusted by his captain for that role.

 

Kuldeep ... out of form

 

Shami ... poor death bowler in T20s.

 

So, we need replacement for most of the " / " players in T20Is.

 

Plus Saini is still hit or miss and Bhuvi gets injured a bit too often and is not available.

 

We need backups or replacements for a lot of slots.

 

 Even if present TM & Selection coterie seem to be not upto the mark , we as passionate followers should be rooting for players to replace those who have in the last 6-8 years have not done anything of note. 

I would like to see below in contention for T20

 1. Rohith    -   Do not see him dropped 

 2. Shaw /Rahul ( If Shaw fails , rahul moves up)

 3. Rahul /Samson  - If Shaw/Rahul fails , Samson moves up

 4. Virat 

 5.  Iyer /Padikkal   

 6.  Pant/Samson

 7.  Hardik/Rana 

 8.  Sundar /Axar 

 9 . Chahal /Bishnoi

 10. Kamlesh /Saini

  11. Bhumra/Chahar  

 

  Considering these aspects while selecting - 

1. This does not mean we have a gr8 side , with the resources available now this could be a good team.

2. Looking at future - Hence no Dhawan , Jaddu, Pandey Ashwin , Shami  , Bhuvi 

3. Need to play kamlesh Mavi  & prasidh - most of them have got 4-8 months time now post injury . 

4. Need 4 good bowlers , even if  weakens batting a bit , so be it .  Do not see any merit in No.7 & 8 making the team win often . May happen once in 20-30 matches . 

5. Need improvements from Saini, Kamlesh , Chahar  but still these guys should be front runners . Saini /kamlesh - Pacy, Can nail yorkers and with focussed work can improve further .

6. Sundar/Axar - Need to improve batting and some more skillsets when batsmen are going at you.

7. Need consistency  from Iyer ,Samson , Pant -  Batting smarts needed with the sole aim of winning or if playing first reaching a target score rather than trying shots for gallery.

My XI

 

  1. Rohit 
  2. Rahul 
  3. Kohli 
  4. Iyer/manish/Gill 
  5. pant/dk/sky 
  6. Krunal/Axar 
  7. Hardik 
  8. Deepak chahar / bhuvi
  9. Saini / Ashwin 
  10. Bumrah 
  11. Chahal 
  12. rahul chahar

 

  • Ashwin if they wann play 2 spinners, he cant be ignored anymore 
  • at 4 i hve never been an iyer fan nor i have ever seen pandey as long term player , i like gill but he hasnt reached his full potential yet ...so it has to be a call on form 
  • Its has to be between krunal n axar, jadeja is not a t20 bowler 
  • Since bhuvi injured and chahar can play more shots with bat lets play chahar ahead now in t20 
  • None has completely owned the backup opener slot 
  • at 5 pant/dk/sky all are RR accelerator problem wud be if their is a collapse
