England shitted themselves in the tests and placed many fielders on the rope for smarty Pant. Not the case in the first 6 overs in a T20. My preferred batting lineup would be: 1. Rahul 2. Rohit 3. Pant 4. Kohli 5. SKY 6. Hardik 7. Axar 8. Shardul 9. Sundar 10. Bhuvi 11. Saini This way Kohli has big hitters all around him and he can anchor an innings. TM won't do something as radical as opening with Pant although I agree with your thought process SRT100 1 Link to comment
Rasgulla Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 10 hours ago, Vijy said: I like your proposed XI, although Brat will not pick that team. Only diff is that I'd have thakur in place of nattu because I think latter is injured. and thakur saab's lower-order striking is quite ferocious. Well I have to be realistic aswell. ViRAT is our captain afterall. As a player he was unreal in last 2 T20I ICC tournaments so it won't be fair to chuck him out. He averages over 50+ in this format aswell. Rohit shouldn't even make it because of his slow start. That's not how you play in PPs although he is better captain than Virat by a mile. Vijy 1 Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 i just looked at both squads and i dont have a good feeling about this,unless the pitches are conducive to spin we are toast. Link to comment
neel roy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Oh one good news I am hearing is that ICC will allow 18-20 member squad for the t20 wcup due to covid. This allows us to pack our team with whoever we want.. normally in icc events its 15 member squads.. Link to comment

And kuldeep My problem with shami is he has a good yorker but lacks variation and bowls a lot of length bowls at death. The tewatia innings was also due to cottrell n shami bowling length bowls at him at death. Not a fan of Mayank About kuldeep - ill wait till he comes out of that Moeen ali trauma Edited March 11, 2021 by Ankit_sharma03 Link to comment

But mostly he will be phased out anyway in the next year or so. At the moment, Shaw and Paddikal are ahead of Samson in the reckoning. Samson needs to have a seriously good IPL to breakthrough Do you have some beef with samson?? You are so quick to write him off Link to comment

BacktoCricaddict Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Somehow slot Kishan, Pant, SKY and Pandya in the line-up for all 5 matches. Give them a good go, and a chance for the future to gel. It is not everyday that you get a 5-T20I series with so much opportunity to test out the youngsters' readiness. Rest of the team can be rotated. kirkutfan, Banton, Ankit_sharma03 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Vijy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 2 hours ago, Cricspin said: I want all eleven to be able to bat. Here is my list of the available players. There is no to include bowlers who cant bat as we don't have Bumrah. I dont rate Natarajan too high and he aint available anyway. I will pass Saini too. KL Rahul Rohit Sharma Virat Kohli (capt) << Unfortunately Suryakumar Yadav Rishabh Pant (wk) Hardik Pandya Rahul Tewatia Axar Patel Shardul Thakur Deepak Chahar Bhuvneshwar Kumar Backups-- Ishan Kishan (wk), Navdeep Saini, Washington Sundar, Shreyas Iyer Will keep Dhawan, Chahal, Chakravarthy out of all Games.. Nataajan is out already. IMO, T20 batting till 7 or 8 is enough. 20 overs does not require 11 batsmen. express bowling 1 Link to comment
zen Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Probable line ups per cricinfo: India (possible): 1 Rohit Sharma, 2 KL Rahul, 3 Virat Kohli (capt), 4 Shreyas Iyer, 5 Rishabh Pant (wk), 6 Hardik Pandya, 7 Axar Patel/Washington Sundar, 8 Shardul Thakur, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 Yuzvendra Chahal, 11 Navdeep Saini. England (possible): 1 Jason Roy, 2 Jos Buttler (wk), 3 Dawid Malan, 4 Jonny Bairstow, 5 Ben Stokes, 6 Eoin Morgan (capt), 7 Moeen Ali, 8 Sam Curran, 9 Chris Jordan, 10 Jofra Archer/Mark Wood, 11 Adil Rashid. Ind would need relatively strong batting till #8 ... In the last 3 slots, it can play its best bowlers per conditions Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 34 minutes ago, Cricspin said: Because there are no better bowling options good enough to give bowling edge. Even Natarajan is not available. Saini is faster but not too much better than Chahar or Bhubi. we have 6 bowling options starting with Pandya. May be you could make a case for Chahal but thats it. but he is a better LOI bowler then thakur Link to comment
