nsareen Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Match is in the evening , potentially Kohli would lose the TOSS & potentially India would have to defend the score. What would be the ideal combination, taking learnings from the 1st match. Link to comment
rangeelaraja Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 We will lose the match if we bat first. End of Story. Sunil_narine024 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) The lack of fast bowling options mean one of Bhuvi or Shami will continue. Thats one handicap. Then comes the Hardik Pandya conundrum. Why has this guy been selected? He won't bowl, team doesn't trust him to bat 4 overs. Need Rahul to be in touch against Kiwis, otherwise it will be a similar surrender. Edited October 25, 2021 by SK_IH Link to comment
Cricket_Hacker Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Kiwis are our bogey team, just play natural game and hope for the best Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Only chance if Kishan opens & fires... Rest of em have mental block against kiwis. Rahul is a dud vs left armers. Sharma is a crap T20 batsman. nitinbwj and Frustrated 2 Link to comment
adi B Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Thing is if nzl lose to pakistan on Tuesday (most likely to happen) ,the nzl game on Sunday will be a virtual knockout . And we know how we play in KOs under captain doofus ! Everything will go wrong come Sunday, we'll lose the toss ,boult will rip a new one .... Link to comment
Mohan Swamy Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Shami and Bhuvneshwar need to be dropped. Go with Bumrah and Shardul as your pacers, and play three spinners. Get rid of Pandya and bring in Ishan Kishen. And pray that you win the toss and bowl first. nitinbwj 1 Link to comment

Dew is a big factor in defending scores! India do not have a RASHID who may still be able to keep things quiet even with the dew, we have ASHWIN, who doesnt event have a consistent run-up. nitinbwj 1 Link to comment

In T20 I will go for the wicket tacking ability even if you give away some runs, shardul is famous for his out of the blue double strike overs. I will take my chances with him rather than old 124 KPH Bhuvi. nitinbwj 1 Link to comment

Thakur definately feels a better choice considering he gives a batting cushion & he has a golden arm ( atleast in the IPL he has shown to have ).. Link to comment

He smacked Mark Wood in the warm up so not like he can't handle pace. Ferguson usually bowls in middle overs. Boult at best is 140kph & Southee will open the bowling alomg with him. Kishan can provide us a flying start. Even of they go with a Santner over at the start Link to comment
speedheat Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Open with kishan, drop bhuvi for shardul. Link to comment
