Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Once Stokes is out of quarantine RR shud send him to open , player like stokes has been wasted at 5,6 in t20 which is why his international t20 record is abysmal and even in IPL nothing beyond one season. They did the same to butler when he wasnt working in middle . Stokes can play fast bowling really well and it ll make a left -right dashing combo , if this works they both will runaway will many games alone themselves Now that uthappa n riyan are not in form smith can go at 4 and hold one end, they shud throw in anuj rawat and one more youngster may be anirrudha joshi or shashank singh Stokes can also bat at 3 or 4 but at open it provides left hander at start . If stokes is in the form of his life why not use it to fullest Butler and stokes sounds a scary combo with samson n smith to follow and both arent just 30-40 run player they can bat long as well.

zen Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 RR has two wins in 4 games. If some of these guys fire/play to their potential, they can help RR win 5-6 games from the next 10 to make it to the playoffs. In the playoffs, Stokes and Smith are quite good in pressure games. Buttler, Archer, Samson, etc., can play freely as well. In order to do all these, they have to use their resources well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniac Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Stokes replacing Tom Curran is such a huge upgrade but not sure if Stokes is bowling fit though. nevada 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben stokes hasnt done anything for RR , thats why send him at top or else he will become a liability this season to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR can try the 11 below (batting order can be flexible) Jaiswal Buttler Smith Stokes Samson Lamror Tewatia Archer Gopal Tyagi Bowler - Rajpoot, Aaron, Unadkat, .... per pitch and opposition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samson can be moved to the top order too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokes needed a good innings before RR goes out and all the English players return home... Now that one innings done, back to failings again..
