You expect international players to be honest about their injury and not play when they can't give their 100%. So that's on Ashwin as well.

 

 

yup it was on him to

Ishant picked 5 top order wickets in test 2. Took wickets when they were running away with the game in first innings. He isn't a new ball bowler, so, problem there with captaincy. Kohli kept giving him new ball, that's stupid captaincy. We have no typical new ball bowler in this team. Shardul is okay but he is no Bhuvi.

 

Moeen Buttler Curran are top order?

 

Why couldn't he do well with old ball to actual top order?Only with 2nd new ball he got wickets in first innings

Everybody knew he was injured though.He wasnt hiding it.Captain still played him like Ishant last Test looked unfit.

 

Can player refuse to play if captain wants him to? :hmmm:

As per process, Team doc/physio has to clear the player based on fitness tests and player's own feedback on pain levels during specific activities. So either Ashwin would have wrongly mentioned to physio that pain is manageable and will not impact his bowling OR physio reported the issue and team management still took that risk which is even dumber. Frankly, in this team, no one knows how things are managed.

 

But I would have expected Ashwin to be honest and tell them he can't really bowl over a 5-day match (unlike ODI/T20I where you can take a risk on slightly unfit player). In fact, many a times abdomen injuries can aggravate and lead to more serious issues. Only Ashwin knew how bad he felt - what happened during the match proved that he had overestimated his own ability to bowl at full tilt over 5 days.

Butler is top 6 batsman. Moeen, Curran have always thorn for us. Regarding old ball, others also didn't pick wickets with old ball. That was a match turning spell from him in both innings. Second innings he got Haseeb who was settled and making a partnership with Root then same with Bairstaw just before tea. These are top order wickets. Was second best bowler for us behind Siraj in that test.

It's a pretty decent record and if he got a run of 2-3 consecutive tests, he could have improved it further. our middle order is very poor, but so is that of eng. he could have certainly bagged more wkts than jadeja has

Bowling is a problem, if Jadeja was minting runs this idea of Ashwin always playing second fiddle to him would make some senser but not now! Even 4 years back when Jadeja was doing a lot more with the ball then I did say that unless Ashwin contributes with the bat Jadeja would be the better choice A/R - right now whether by choice or design, Brat not bowling him enough, he's being underutilized massively! If he's not bowling as your main spinner then just play him as a batter & Ashwin for his bowling you *ing numbnut :motz:

I have a feeling Ashwin not being picked might have something to do with his youtube channel. Kohli lowkey didn't like him even before but they have a reason now.

i hve a feeling bhajji paid him so he cudnt cross his tally :giggle:

 

Erre har baat men conspiracy nhin hoti, its cricketing reason only .....................he is stubborn on 4 pacer thats it .

maybe, maybe not. what i mentioned is not a 'conspiracy', it could well be within the realms of possibility considering we are not privy to many things. You can only read the tea leaves like they say.

Jealousy is mixed in somewhere I think. From  the current team, only Kohli and Ashwin can reach the ATG status so there is definitely something brewing.

 

Another reason is Virat's fascination with the fast bowlers. He wants to "dominate" with fast bowlers, bouncing out the opponent. He wants to be aggressive.

yea these are conspiracy theories, a captain wants to win he wont rule someone out for such petty things. 

Every captains knws if they loose it affects their place. 

 

They have certain ideas which u or me may not agree but doesnt mean they can sit someone out on such petty things

Oh really? this place would lose part of it's life's purpose if it weren't discussing Kohli and his pettiness in every other thread. At any rate i don't agree that it is when such things have happened in the past. It's not like Ashwin was dropped for a series in india where it would beggar belief. That alone makes it a reasonable hypothesis rather than a conspiracy theory.

Jadejas 10 runs are totally worth it here.

 

Dude india of all teams should understand the value of a good spinner who can attack.

Yeah we knew beforehand that he will score 10 and not 50 like he did in first match. 

Illogical argument.
