Majestic Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Hi All, this is my first opening post on this forum. As we look to setup our team for WT20 next year, I feel IPL has given us a great chance to look at the talented youngsters coming through and hence we can setup a team which has all bases covered for the WT20 tournament. Below is the playing XI as it looks now for our T20 team:- Rohit Rahul(wkt) Kohli Iyer -------(still vacant IMO) Pandya Jadeja Bhuvi Saini/Shami Chahal Bumrah Possible contenders:- Dhawan/Shaw/Agarwal(opener slot) SKY/Pant/Samson/Pandey (5th no.) Sundar/Dube/Tewatia (all rounder) Ashwin/ Bishnoi/Kuldeep (spinners) Deepak Chahar/Navdeep Saini (pacers) Let's keep a track of it. Suggestions are welcomed.

Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 As of today Rahul Rohit Backup opener Kohli Iyer Pant Pandya Axar/ Krunal ( If Wc is in India then axar , if in Aus then Krunal) Deepak Chahar Ashwin Chahal Bumrah Saini Rahul chahar Dk Shami/ BK ( As of now shami, but i never liked him as t20 bowler, bhuvi as t20 bowler is far better but his fitness is a major concern) Players that needs to be tried - SKY, Prasidh , Natrajan, Varun.C, Tewatia Backup opener- none making a strong case only helps dhawan but thats a disaster Samson- to inconsistent but excellent fielder Devdutt- i like him but need 1 more season to be sure Mayank- again need to see one more season before this season he hasnt been good in IPL ever Shaw- poor fielder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 India won't win any World T20s if two of Rohit, Kohli and Dhawan are picked. There is only room for one batsman with a mid 130s strike rate. The egos of these three will never allow India attack from ball 1 BacktoCricaddict, Gollum and zen 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cricketics Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Too early to say. There is an IPL in 2021. We have to pick people on form and not based on their 1 year old performance as in what is happening now. Everything in this year's iPL will be approx 1 year old. April's IPL will be a better time to evaluate a t20 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zen Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) At the moment, the key T20 cricketers on performance/potential are: Batsmen/Batting ARs Agarwal (bats with the right spirit in T20s) Hardik (best lower order power batsman) SKY (360 degrees potential) Pant (power hitting + 360 potential) Samson (talent + ability to play match winning knocks. If he is in, he is in) Tewatia (ability to play under pressure) Paddikal KL (needs to play more aggressively) Iyer (needs to play more aggressively) Bowlers/Bowling ARs Bumrah Saini Krishna Bhuvi Shami (for wkt taking abilities) Sundar (bowling in PPs) Krunal (can bowl Jayasuriya like yorkers) Chahal (can bowl wkt taking deliveries) R Chahar (useful leg spinner and can be preferred over Chahal if fielding is a criteria) Other good ones: Shaw but needs to improve his fielding Gill but plays at a lower SR Rana Bishnoi (talented leg spinner) V Chakravarty (mystery variety) Tyagi (bowls with pace and has good yorkers) Edited October 14, 2020 by zen cricketfan28, Suhaan and speedheat 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wud u send rahul at 5, most days he ll get 10 balls thats it. Even sky gets more balls then him...really ? He is KL not dk who ll work only in lesser number of balls England makes butler open RR is making stokes open U dnt waste ur best players like that to for someone like mayank who finally has a good ipl after many many and no way he is has ability close to rahul. Had it been for a guy like gilly, warner, gayle it wud make sense but not mayank. In international cricket he has one of the best S.r in powerplay Edited October 14, 2020 by Ankit_sharma03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. 4 No.5 Pandya idk man he has been so inconsistent lately! 4 and 5 are there to grab! Iyer chased a big total in a T20 game Vs NZ. I think he plays a good anchor role and can smash spinners for fun. Very good fielder also and mentally strong player. No one is a better power hitter than H Pandya at lower middle order and should be a good sixth bowling option.

express bowling Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 1 hour ago, Gollum said: Respect your knowledge bro but Jaddu, seriously? The reason for that is 1. I am considering a player at No.7, and so, the hitting ability is very important too 2. Jadeja 2.0, in the last 2 or 3 years, has been hitting well. ( That was not the case earlier ). Even in this IPL, Jadeja has scored 126 runs at a SR of 168 and average of 32. While Sundar has a batting SR of 118 and Axar a batting SR of 122 this IPL. Neither have scored a total of 60 runs even. And it is not just a matter of this IPL. Sundar looks like a No.5 type of batsman to me, as of today. High SR batting is not his forte yet. And Axar somehow never scores that many runs and gets out. Krunal's ability to bat at the international level, is not clear to me yet. 3. As a pure T20 bowler ... my pick would have been Sundar. Jadeja is usually an economical bowler and so, the hiiting + bowling combo part is looking better to me as of today. Mosher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Wolf Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Iyer is being bashed too much for nothing really. Dude is only guy in team who smashes spin from ball one. Kohli is generally crap at hitting spin & looks to rotate only.. So we do need him. SKY at 5 can be good.. He can bash both spin & Pace & innovate too.
