What's this hype about him? Overall T20 record 1000 runs@22, SR of 146

 

146 is a very good s/r

SLPL: 10 matches, 215 runs@187 (anyone who could hold a batwas having a gala time at this league)

PSL: 10 matches, 174 runs@18, SR of 133

CPL: 8 matches, 178 runs@22, SR of 124

 

Basically someone who can hit a 50 off 25-30 balls once in a bluemoon

 

Clearly a quota pick. Hasn't done enough to earn a national spot. Will be a liability in the field and thus likely to waste a spot in that Pakistani 11. On fitness ground alone, he shouldn't be playing international cricket. 

Whenever u wanna look at new talent avoid numbers 

 

He is actually a very safe fielder and an agile keeper .He has quick hands n hits the ball miles, their are enough videos of his to see . 

He gets picked in other leagues too, quota doesnt help their.

Umm..  Azam isn't that good vs spin.  Kuldeep bamboozled him in Asia Cup & World cup(even when he was struggling). Babar would like Pace coming on to the bat. Rwason why he bats at the Top in T20Is. Hafeez is good player of spin though.  Again a sharp spell of Bumrah in between would be nice.  

 

Axar wud be good against babar but knowing kohli he wnt play axar

spot on

Can be Rahul chahar/Varun. C also

 

 

 

 

Only 4 batsmen for t20 game, why? so that Pak has a chance to pull off an upset with a handful of wickets?  Disagree with that light a batting unit.

 

3.5 pace bowling options? 1 too many arguably.

 

And lastly, an unproven rookie as the primary spinner? Ahead of Chahar? why? Because Varun is KKR and Gambo still hopes to pull a Langer and become a coach down the road for them? 

 

Bullshit team.

Varun played under DK not gambo, so KKR has nothing to do with the reason

Varun is being pref for mystery reason 

Even Varun n Chahar can play together

Jadeja in T20 as a batsman is not ideal. He walks out in the last 10 overs most likely where he has to smash fast bowlers.  As a bowler he is okay recently. happy to be proven wrong. This is a top heavy side. Pandya, Pant, Jadeja are all lottery in this format. 

 

This is Jadeja's T20 career with bat (11 years)  Strike rate of 112.

Both Axar and Jdadu are waste in T20. But Axar is slightly better with ball. I think Jadeja will push ahead for his fielding. But India needs a reliable striker down the order to add that extra 20 to 30 runs.

axar has proven out to be extremely economical on many occasion but yea both their batting isnt very scary at no.7

very similar to the situation where he the nod ahead of Ashwin in Tests. "Extra" batting skill which may or may not be useful.

Dude why bring Ashwin in every second post of yours? We get it, he is your fav, many others here like him as well. But don't need to demean other players.

 

How are Axar and Jaddu waste? Sure Jaddu doesn't have a great record especially in WT20s, but his batting has improved so much, and he is the best fielder on the planet. Axar is about as good as Ashwin with the ball, even if he is inferior it isn't by much and he more than makes up for it with his power hitting and not being a liability on the field.

 

Be objective...Axar, Jaddu, Krunal were our best bets for #7 position, role of spin AR, it was always going to be one of these 3. Even Sundar hasn't nailed that role, he may in the future but right now I am not sure he is even better than Ashwin in this format. 

 

Ashwin has been picked only because we needed an offie to cover all bases, as a match up card against LHB heavy batting lineups. That doesn't mean Axar or Jaddu are waste.

Jadjeja's best batting format is test, ODI and lastly T20.  If you are depending on Jadeja's batting to help you in a T20, especially at the international level, you have already lost.

As much as I dont think Krunal is international class, he was a reasonable option at #7 for India.  His batting in T20 would definitely be much more likely to succeed than Jaddu.

Thanks for completely missing the point. I said Axar in T20s = Ashwin in Tests situation. Axar as a bowler will be better than Jaddu as a bowler in T20. But Jaddu will be preferred ahead of Axar due to his "batting" abilities.
