Rest Bumrah and Shami from the 3rd ODI and T20Is

[ShoonyaSifar]

Both look to be in no rhythm at all and are struggling. No zip, no bounce, no movement. Bowling gun barrel straight. Body language is poor as well. 

 

If we have to have a face saver in tests, it's better to rest both of them from the remaining LOIs. Let them get ready for the Test matches. Not sure how many practice matches we have but both of them have to bowl in those matches and not in LOIs

Pick Siraj, Shardul and Natarajan. At worst we will concede 390-400 which we have anyways done in these two ODIs

When you're not in rhythm, you should play not rest. Shami should be rested and Bumrah should be played. The idiot needs to start performing for Indian team (not the Mumbai one).

Better for them to bowl in practice matches. These flat wickets will do no good to get them back in rhythm

All our 3 fast bowlers ... Bumrah, Shami and Saini ...  are looking tired from 50 odd days of the IPL, in the heat of the Middle East.

 

They need to be rested in the T20Is atleast.

 

Play Siraj, Natarajan and Chahar in the T20Is. 

 

We need to keep Bumrah and Shami fresh for the crucial test series.

Exactly. Having a clueless captain doesn't help either as they seem to be in their own when plan A doesn't work.

Pick anyone who is in the squad but hasn't played. No one will do any worse than 388 in 50 overs

[express bowling]

Pick Lotan, Chhotan and Ghotan as the 3 pacers in the T20Is.  It would still help us. 

 

At worst, we will lose ( that is happening even now )  ... but Bumrah and Shami would get some much needed rest and get refreshed. And not just physical rest but mental rest too.

[Lone Wolf]

Siraj should play the 3rd ODI..  Bumrah was seen kicking 30 yard markers.. He's under the pump.  Rest him totally 

[Khota]

I agree. There is nothing to lose by resting these bowlers. That would be the correct thing to do but unfortunately India does not have a coach. That should include Jadeja also.

[Khota]

Actually the prudent thing to do will be to give the remaining players a chance. All of them and definitely the pace bowlers.

[Adamant]

Ipl will end Indian cricket. 

 

[Sooda]

Couldn't agree more with OP. 

 

Get Natarajan, Thakur - though he's terrible, and maybe even Kuldeep for Saini... For Third ODI

 

And yes agree that No shami and Bumrah for T20I also. Don't care at all about bilateral T20I series.

 

Why flog them in to these pancake flat tracks and tire them out before tests

There's warm up matches for that. Anyway rhythm isn't the problem, he was good in the IPL. He's tired

Spot on, let them rest. There is no point of playing them with nothing at stake.
