ShoonyaSifar Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 13 minutes ago, CodeOfWisden said: You don't need a good pace attack to do well on pitches like those, Bumrah will be unplayable if they prepare nz 2002 kinda pitches. Also they don't really have batsman who can survive in such conditions, we actually had some players who could play spin. (Rohit and Pant) That's true but typically swing bowlers do the damage. An inform Bumrah can consistently blow away opposition on those pitches in one spell. With TM likely to prefer the same senior pacers trio at least for the first couple of tests, it limits the damage potential. On batting, expecting England's lower middle order of Stokes, Buttler, Curran to likely rescue them on such pitches. Link to comment

He'll also field better and bowl. Also back Ashwin to do as well as Shardul unless the conditions are utterly lopsided for swing/seam bowling. Rest of the team mostly picks itself. Don't see any disaster brewing on account of the above team selection. Have you seen the squad England have picked?? We are almost certainly going to get lopsided conditions lol Link to comment
CodeOfWisden Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I think the TM would go with Shardul ahead of Ashwin in the first test if the conditions are overcast and the pitch is seam friendly. Link to comment
Mosher Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Shardul bowling with the new ball. express bowling 1 Link to comment

maniac Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Pujara, Rahane won’t do much here. Pack your side with 6 bowlers and between Shardul,Ashwin and Jadeja they will score more than those guys anyways Rohit Mayank Rahul Virat Pant Jadeja Ashwin Thakur Ishant Shami/Umesh Siraj QuarantineTormentino and Cricspin 2 Link to comment

NZ beat them with Ajaz Patel taking crucial wickets Yes but does that warrant us playing 2 spinners? I mean definitely Jadeja is an upgrade over Ajaz Patel and can perform this role better Edited July 22, 2021 by QuarantineTormentino Link to comment

I mean definitely Jadeja is an upgrade over Ajaz Patel Ashwin is our spinner Jadeja would have made it even if didnt bowl owing to better performances than Vihari.Bowling is huge bonus though.

Austin 3:!6 Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 Thakur may play the 1st test from the looks of it Link to comment
Lord Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Looking at how clueless the poms looked in India vs spin,specially vs Ashwin,we must play him.Its just not a matter of pitches.Good spinner will adjust. Link to comment
maniac Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 England’s strength is bowling, their batting is weak bar Root and Stokes It will be a bowling shoot out so we need to pack our bowling strength Cricspin 1 Link to comment
QuarantineTormentino Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Another issue with playing 2 spinners is that (god forbid) one of the pacers get injured in the match we’ll get screwed. This has happened to us on previous English tours as well Link to comment

QuarantineTormentino Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 We need to start trusting Jadeja’s batting more and use him how Bangla use Shakib. It will provide us with more balance and flexibility Link to comment
