zen Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) I am not sure if Sundar is playing purly as a bowler. More like someone who can bowl + bat relative to Kuldeep .... Haven't see the pitch so can't comment on selecting the 4 pacers yet (Kuldeep can be useful in most conditions too so maybe 3 + Kuldeep could have been an option) Edited January 14, 2021 by zen Link to comment

R!TTER Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Unless the team was handpicked by BRat &/or Drunken master it shows how the powers that be think about (test) cricket in India! Kuldeep is a future investment, not picking him here ensures India will not get a test class spinner especially overseas & we deserve everything that comes our way ever since!

cowboysfan Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I am not even sure he will play against England,no reason at all not to play in at the Gabba unless he has lost all confidence. Link to comment
Vk1 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 It also shows how much he has regressed.. Sundar for his batting and might be handy spinner on aussie pitches due to bounce Link to comment

Ankit_sharma03 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 His mental state isnt great , i pointed it in IPL as well . How its known among all cricketing circle now that he looses his confidence in a flash. How many captains n TM can we blame sorak 1 Link to comment

He's even a worse pick at Brisbane & absolutely 0 test credentials as far as I'm concerned, if rumors of his mental state are true then we need to get him back on track ASAP Link to comment
Vk1 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Hope Kuldeep goes back and plays Ranjis or even try to find a county contract Edited January 15, 2021 by Vk1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Disgusting selection, Kuldeep is a match-winner. Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 KKR is also releasing Kuly ahead of this season. Does he have attitude/discipline related problem or what? Forget Kohli/Bewda, other captains he has played under like Rahane (this test), Karthik, Morgan also show lack of faith in him, and KKR coach Baz was known for his aggressive decision making. Why is the whole world against such a talented kid? Link to comment

Why is the whole world against such a talented kid? Self confidence issues. Manoj tiwary did point out once that everyone in domestic cricket knows he can loose confidence in 2-3 balls. I dnt remeber any cricketer on knees crying after getting a phainty like he did. KKR has invested heavy in him during his early days sending him to fitness camps all over the world, it they are giving up on him thats not a good sign. If he is released i really he goes to CSK, MI, kxip with kumble that can help him . sorak 1 Link to comment
