But obviously TM doesn't take such drastic decisions GautiMaan 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 Just now, sarchasm said: Washington sundar over Pandya/Umesh is a rank defensive selection. He's been selected to add batting cushion. Pandya should have started but it's certain he isn't bowling fit. Link to comment

Nikola Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 People talk about kohli's century but pujara's last ton came on aus 2018/19 tour so both need to score big in this match. raki05 and nevada 2 Link to comment

Gollum Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Sundar isn't a test bowler FGS, wrong team selection. Shardul would have been best, in his absence Siraj or Umesh (depending on match fitness). Link to comment

Sandeep99 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) Need to get them out for less than 250 here. Just bunt the new ball. Even if we're 80-5 in 30 overs, Sundar, Pant, Axar and Ashwin are capable of taking the team over 200. Edited February 24, 2021 by Sandeep99 Link to comment
rollingstoned Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 trying to match england for their batting depth isn't such a bad move imo, they get decent scores mainly because of their lower order bailing them out time and again. I would have preferred Pandya but he doesn't have much match fitness and probably can't be trusted to bowl 10 overs in a day in which case Sundar's selection makes sense. Link to comment

ShoonyaSifar Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I can see a bright sunny hot afternoon outside my window 15 KM away from the stadium in Gandhinagar. Current temp at 34 (feels like 37-38), will peak at 36 in an hour or two. Huge security arrangements and really long queues. Decided to skip the first session, may go later for the last session of the day. Link to comment
