Exactly. And same result, or at most get to semis. 

[express bowling]

The T20I squad that the TM are trying to build  ( not necessarily my choice )

 

 

1. Rohit / Kishan

2. Rahul / Samson

3. Kohli / SKY

4. Shreyas / SKY

5. Pant / Hardik 

6. Jadeja / Venkatesh / Hooda

7. Deepak / Shardul

8. Harshal / Shardul

9. Bhuvi / Shami

10. Bumrah / Siraj

11. Chahal / Bishnoi / Kuldeep

 

My concerns

 

... Too many medium pacers .. may get hit in big matches ... especially unsuitable for Australia 

... Kohli, in his current form, may slow things down.

... Both Rohit and Rahul may start slowly

... Our weakness against swing at sharp pace early on in big matches.

You think Kishan/Ruturaj are better than Kohli and KLR ? 

 

On what basis ?

 

That bowling lineup with 3 newbies each of whom can go for plenty.  You cant have Harshal, Avesh and Bishnoi all playing the same game. This is not gonna happen.

Yes, in T20s you need players who are capable of scoring fast from the start. Kohli's scoring rate has declined of late and his consistency is also lower. 

 

I could have KL as an option in middle order, but not at the top. He always chokes when he opens the innings. 

 

By the way, we won our only T20 World Cup with a bunch of newbies who were highly motivated and hungry for success. In our last World T20, we played with all the veterans and tons of experience in the team and you know what the result was. Can't keep making the same mistakes.

the batting and bowling are both sub-par thanks to the conservative choices being made.

8. Deepak / Shardul

9. Bishnoi

10. Bumrah

11. Siraj

 

This type of team can take care of a lot of issues we currently have. 

 

... Batting till 8 .. even 9 is decent

... 1 explosive opener

... Big hitter till 8

... 6 bowling options

... 2 proper quicks

... 3 or 4 pace options based on pitch

... 2 or 3 spin options based on pitch

yes, agreed. with sundar as backup for axar, lord for deepak, and avesh for siraj,

[A1Singga]

I would prefer India to have good batting depth with having bowlers that can bat as well. Jadeja, Pandya, Lord, Chahar should be in the team . Ideally chahar in the place of bhuvi cause he can turn the bowl as well of what I have seen of him. Venky Iyer too slow for aus pitches. He should only be selected if he can swing the ball. Except bumrah and maybe chahal . There shouldn't be any bowler who cannot bat. If chahal can be replaced with Sundar. Considering he won test matches in Aus for India . That would be ideal. 

 

This will force the top order to go for runs as soon as the match starts.

Top 4 of Rohit,Kohli,Iyer & Rahul in T20 cricket . Rinse & repeat

"You don't need hacks in t20s especially in Aus"

"Hack" is a pretty convenient word

On topic,those four alone take minimum 8-10 deliveries to somehow start their innings which means 32-40 deliveries with meagre runs,add to it,if they stay they score at 110-125 sr,which means we will always post below par targets and falter chasing anything above 165

It doesn't take care of one issue - 

Being exposed against proper bowling attacks in large grounds of Aus. 

 

In Ipl this team will win 15 out of 15 matches. 

[vvvslaxman]

India's squad will be determined by injuries more than anything else.  Whoever is the fitness coach has to be given an ultimatum. Lack of flexibility is the reason why they pull something every series.  This is more noticeable in the last 2 or 3 years.

[Stan AF]

We can't have kohli, hardik, jadeja and kl rahul in the team at all times. KL rahul should be dropped if he can't up his strike rate. Hardik is a waste if he can't bowl and take wickets. Jadeja's so called bowling is a huge liability. Kohli's batting in the top is a huge minus if he doesn't score at 160+ after facing 25 balls.

Replace 

Iyer with GOAT T20 batsman

Play Pandya at 6

Drop Washi, he doesn't have a power game as of now, replace him with Jaddu.

GOAT T20 batsmen can easily be tied down v spin,

 

Pandya should come in only if fully fit and bowling

 

Jaddu already there in his team.

[Suhaan]

Rohit

Kela

Bhutpurv Kaptaan

All together in top3

Recipe for disaster,but xprience matters only to cuck in KOs,ab toh vo naubat bh nahi,first round exit

Add Dhawan(huge possibility)it gets dreadful and please no Iyer,i can foresee him being tactically kept at the crease by opposition to dent us even more

Ha Gaikwad with 113 sr and Kishan with his hack technique who cant go at a sr above 80 against good bowlers are gonna blaze away

KL rahul is a slouch as an opner in odis and IPL

 

in t20i he is a different beast. Atleast watch some cricket before talking out of ur back.

Disrespectful post. You are the fool here to think that results will be the same if we keep making same mistakes. Gaikwad was highest run scorer in the last IPL scoring at SR 136 and averaging 45. 

 

When you make posts countering a point, be respectful in the future.
