Team for Lords

Prolly the best batting wicket we'll get this series unless they prepare another green mamba like 2018.

 

So we must have to go in with 5 bowlers. One of Shami/Siraj should be dropped for Ishant whose inswingers will have a big say at Lords due to the slope™. 

 

Mayank should come in for Pujara if he's fit. 

 

 

Rohit

Rahul

Mayank

Kohli

Pant

Jadeja

Rahane

Thakur

Ishant

Bumraj

Siraj/Shami/Umesh

Kohli post match indicated..  That he'll go with same set of bowling combo. 

Pujara biggest beneficiary of this Rain.  But Bakre ki maa kab tak khair manayegi:phehe:

 

Which means Ashwin will play

Lords is the least helpful pitch for spinners.

 

I meant Kohli never sticks to what he says :giggle:

 

It is supposed to be hot and dry in London.If thats the case Ashwin should come in.If it comes in same bowling

It maybe dry but not hot. It's going to be cloudy. Dry is good for swing. With rain, ball gets wet and doesn't swing.

If Ashwin is back benching one pacer and Ishant back replacing Siraj ,it will be no less than a disaster

Kohli being the most clueless leader is very capable of doing the same

On one side Ishant will be a mere passenger,Ashwin/Jadeja(the bowler) are no Warne who have a guaranteed spot in the team

Im not against them ,but playing two of them would mean benching a pacer,which is pure foolish in these conditions,it also keeps your top3 pacers fresh

very interesting thought process though. i preferred vijay shankar but you really made a good suggestion as we can have jaddu at 6. ash at 7. thakur at 8. siraj at 9.

4 pacers must be played.

 

Bumrah could bowl with extra fire because he did not have to bowl too many overs, as the workload was shared by 4 pacers.

yea good point. Thats the reason why booms was firing. vs n.z we had 2 spinners who eat up overs very quickly. with thakur its different. more rest.
