Laaloo Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) It's about going back to the process, and then see if the process is wrong. We play in front of millions of people so there is nothing to hide. We're trying a few things. You don't want to chop and change. Insecurity is something you don't want to prevail in the dressing room. Fair enough, this season we weren't really there. Also the youngsters, we didn't see the spark to push the guys. But what this result has done is give those youngsters a chance in the rest of the tournament.

Cricketics Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Thala will get knighted by Queen in England. Even England did not find Curran as opener as Thala did.

zen Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Below are two statements from Dhoni: Quote Abu Dhabi, Oct 19 (PTI) Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Monday said the youngsters in his squad did not show the spark needed to break into the playing XI at the expense of the veterans. Quote 'Maybe going forward we bring them in and they play without pressure.' Link In principle, I agree with Dhoni: 1st statement: The most optimized 11 for conditions and opposition should play. Now if a youngster is among the top/optimized 11, he should be in the playing 11 (not just because he is a youngster). These guys are professionals being paid a lot to win the cup for their team. There are various stakeholders involved too. IPL teams are not grooming schools where they play youngsters over an experienced player just because the player is young. The youngster needs to be equally good if not better to replace another player in the 11. 2nd statement: If a team has no chances of making it to the playoff, it does not need to worry about optimizing its 11 and can experiment with trying new players including youngsters. More apt discussion should be if CSK is playing an optimized 11 based on the merits of players (from both youngsters and experienced ones) in the squad. And if a talented player (youngster or experienced) is left out despite deserving a place in the 11. A statement like Team X should play youngsters (without identifying if youngsters merits a place in the 11 over those in being picked) is pointless esp. from the franchise's PoV.
