maniac Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Watching 8-9 batsmen of England C and their technique and batting ability, England can afford to go boom boom till 4-5. Obviously 8-9 won’t bail you out every time. Now watching Indias 7-11 no way we can afford to take high risks at the start. May be 1 or 2 players that’s about it. Different teams have different combos and skills and strategies to suit their strength. Its really amazing that our fans don’t get this. our bowlers Siraj,Bumrah,Shami,Chahal,Kuldeep, Saini etc etc no one can hold the bat and they might get a couple of slogs away once in a while or block for a few overs that doesn’t make them reliable at all. Our strategy works for us and has been for a while. Don’t fix something that isn’t broken and as DK would say, stop staring at the neighbors wife. Vk1 and G_B_ 1 1 Link to comment
Suhaan Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 We don't want to understand,we have a lineup of Dhawan,Rohit,Iyer,Kohli,KL they all take 20-30 deliveries to get their engine running We cannot afford more than 1-2,decks are getting flatter with each day, Spicey decks are rare,maybe we can strengthen our lowerMO Link to comment
Popular Post Jimmy Cliff Posted July 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2021 2019 SF proves the Indian approach didn't work either. You can't screw around with the middle order leading up to the WC and then ask them to step up in the KO game. When we really needed a 45-0 in 10 overs kinda start, they shat themselves.

Serpico Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 our top 3 are going to choke anyway in big matches, so what is the point of their approach? maybe with england approach, they can get a couple of boundaries before choking Sgattick10, Banton and Vk1 3 Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Our approach is totally flawed. We can settle down in middle overs but no excuse for Powerplay batting. You have to go hard in Powerplay as simple as that. Spin usually chokes our run scoring in middle overs any way as our players don't sweep or slog sweep or play reverse sweep (except Pant) .. And we nudge & prod towards the final 10. Edited July 10, 2021 by Lone Wolf Link to comment

Lord Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 we need to get Shaw or someone similar as opener.Dhawan is too slow Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 England batting follows almighty Aussie batting strategy . Whats the strategy- with 300 balls - try to make maximum out of it and its easy now with free hits, shorter grounds , 2 new balls, bigger bats and evolution of batting. Add Irfan at 8 and thakur at 9 we still will bat same coz this team plays safe cricket. Our 2011 batting had more intent then this not that we had some great tailender then. Also its about playing ur best XI- now can someone tell me how does dhawan, manish, iyer fit in India's best XI when u have better players for a 20 over game. We even play 20 over game in a safe way. We Have world 2 best ODI players in Rohit n Kohli and dhawan will also be in top 10 but yet we choose to play safe. Teams dont become champions by playing safe cricket . Link to comment

Ankit_sharma03 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 even warner in last few years have changed his approach, Aussie now are following Indian style of cricket which is why they cant be considered in top 3 favs now Link to comment

He is batting the same way like kohli n Rohit although very low sample in international cricket, in franchise cricket his side is so bad that he has to . I dnt buy that we dont have a replacement for dhawan in t20- a guy who avg below 30 and s/r below 130 has no replacement with our strength....we just havent looked Edited July 10, 2021 by Ankit_sharma03 Link to comment

SK_IH Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 No that stale formulaic strategy has not worked for India. They have won ghanta in limited overs internationals Link to comment

I agree they are not a solution for T20. Rahul needs to hear some gunshot or a kick on his back as he has the ability. Rohit and Kohli are alright. We need their class in all formats unless they have a loss of form. Link to comment
