maniac Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Take a gamble. He is a mystery spinner. If he comes off might win a test match on his own. Also Aussies minus Smith and may be a small extent Warner are pathetic against spinners. raki05 1
cricketfan28 Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 agree.. what have we go to lose.nothing.

His shelf life will be short but use him in a critical series, if he wins a test in one of those SENA countries that will be enough contribution from him. I would say play him in Aus as he gets some bounce as well. raki05 1
Popular Post Serpico Posted October 24, 2020 Popular Post Posted October 24, 2020 I was going to say he is too early for T20Is but wow you guys are three steps ahead, directly calling for a test debut based on one ipl game velu, AuxiliA, Cricketics and 8 others 11

Yes very true, if they are unable to read him, he should be not exposed too much.

express bowling Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Can't choose test squad based on performances in T20 games. I think 4 of his 5 wickets today were when batsmen were trying to hit 6s off his bowling although he was bowling in good areas and not bowling loose balls. This is a compulsion in T20s. This won't happen in tests. Cricketics, beetle, Gollum and 2 others 5

Chahal to me is too slow thru the air to be effective in tests.He is not tall either to get bounce.

Hows his performance in Ranjis? express bowling 1

Medium speed through the air for a spinner and turn both ways with zip off the deck ... that is ideal for test matches OpeningBatsman and Mosher 2

express bowling Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Let's discuss Chakravarty for just T20Is for now They is the pragmatic way to go. Mosher 1

Lot or vacancies with Bhuvi injured and potentially done and Ishant being injured as well. Lets not forget while Bumrah is world class, he has been around only for 1-2 seasons and still has a long way to go. Umesh is hit or miss. Shami has improved a lot though and I might go as far and call him the spearhead in the absence of Ishant.

We need a surprise to pull of a repeat of 2018 and don’t think we will be able to do it with a team struggling with injuries, loss of form etc against a team that has Warner, Smith and an ever evolving Labu
