Always use stats in context. This does not impress me.

 

Ind simply does not have a batsman in the league of SDP.

Dhawan was peaking recently. Pandys has been taking a crap for longtime.

They both are competing for different spots. Dhawan on his best day never will win T20 matches. He is done as a  T20 international player.

 

We have to move on or we end up like WI who are still playing Gayle and Bravo.

 

It is an indictment on IPL and domestic cricket that Pandya even without his bowling is walking into playing eleven. I don't blame Pandya for that problem.

I thought you were pimping him as an allrounder.

Dhawan was thetop performer in IPL. Dhawan was the top performer in SL tour. What more do you want.? Aura. That he does not have.

There are some morons who think scoring 6 runs of 2 balls occasionally makes Pandya a great player. You cannot help them. Pandya has regressed a lot and he never was good to begin with so ultimately we are left with pure bits and pieces player.

 

But I have not seen any lower order batsman who could tonk the ball in IPL.

Who is he replacing in the team. he is not better than either Rahul or Rohit.let him keep playing IPL and odis.

Lack of runs say otherwise.

 

If SDP bats in top 3-4, he will score tons of runs too. In T20s, ability to make impact matters more. Miller's inning > Bavuma knock

His athleticism his strong suit. You need runs from your top six bats. Bottom five need to go for the kill in bowling.

Never said he is better than Rahul today but he was ahead of every other bat selected.

He is not good enough for that. He is definitely not a pure bat. He does have aura though.

Guy has a test 100 + a bunch of 80+ scores in ODIs 

 

Averaged over 100 in Aus recently in ODIs (next best avg was in the 50s) and was MoS in T20s.

But he cannot play in middle order, it is unfair on guys like SKY to select Dhawan over them.

Agree.

Last match was a perfect situation when he could come one down. If he opened he was experienced enough to stop the collapse.

Slowly began to hit well, winning MI a game v PK ... In this WC, helped Ind to reach 150 v Pak after Kohli and Jadeja sucked out momentum once Pant departed

I will take Jadeja over Pandya anyday. Much better option.
