AuxiliA Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 If Pandya can't bowl at all then his spot in the 11 isn't guaranteed. He isn't in form with the bat either. On low to medium scoring pitches that we are likely to have, I will prefer Iyer as a pure batsman over Pandya. Cricspin 1
bowl_out Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 That should be in end of Pandya in ODIs. He can still be integral to the T20I setup if he can revive his batting form. In ODI, it's time for Washi, Iyer, Shankar and Thakur beetle 1
coffee_rules Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Just like Bhuvi , he will turn up in T20WC and bowl winners
express bowling Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) We should include Venkatesh Iyer in the squad then in place of Ishan Kishan. ( Rahul is the backup keeper ) Need atleast 1 top six batsman to bowl a few overs. Playing with just 5 bowling options is a big risk.

Lone Wolf Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Pandya's physique doesn't allows him to recover fully & even if he recovers he will get injured if puts any effort.. I honestly feel for the guy. But that should be it for him. Venky Iyer can be brought in as surprise package but I doubt.
maniac Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Still will make it to T20 side for his batting at this point but fast becoming a liability more than an asset

He's always flaunting his abs Cricspin and raki05 2
Lone Wolf Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 13 minutes ago, Lord said: what's wrong with his physique? He's always flaunting his abs Lack of muscle mass.. He needed proper strength & conditioning. Hardik used to try & hit 140kph during his prime years.. It eventually put a lot of effort on his back. Fast bowling involves lots of bio mechanics. Shaoib Akhtar once explained Problem of Pandya in his old video.

Lone Wolf Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 3 minutes ago, Lord said: so he hasnt had that conditioning till now? No one knows except him & his own team that what's the deal with him. He still walks stretching his back mostly while batting so looks like its a career threatening issue for him. Plenty of cricketers have back problems although these are dangerous ones. If you stick to one discipline you will be fine after a while.. But not as a A/R. Lord 1

Mariyam Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Sorry if this is a noob question but why is our batting coach talking about H Pandya bowling? Shouldn't that be Zaheer Khan's call?

I don't want him to fail. But he looks way too confident that he is acting like he undroppable from the T20 side thanks to his six hitting ability. Once that X factor takes a hit he will struggle to keep his place in the side. Edited October 1, 2021 by vvvslaxman raki05, maniac and Cricspin 1 2

On low to medium scoring pitches that we are likely to have, I will prefer Iyer as a pure batsman over Pandya. Agree with everything except Iyer, I think Samson would be a better choice. Atleast he has the potential to hit fast bowlers ( whether he performs or not is another question). On the other hand Iyer can't hit good pacers. AuxiliA 1
Adamant Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 2 hours ago, Cricspin said: He is been around for a while now and walks into teams when not injured. Everyone expected a Kapil Dev out of him. I feel Irfan history being repeated again. If he retires with similar numbers to Irfan than I would be pretty satisfied with his career. Don't think he will come anywhere close, especially in tests. Also, Pathan was more talented. Cricspin 1
