Shreyas Iyer also scored a 200 vs Aus A team some years ago but we saw last year in ODIs how Hazelwood owned him. Sarfaraz neither have the fitness nor he was mentally up there for the South Africa tour. Indian middle order was weak, it is true but those are alien conditions. In favourable conditions, all our batters are excellent and that is why we are the best tesr team of this generation. Shreyas scored those runs in India AFAIK. He'd handle Hazelwood fine too in India Sarfaraz scores those runs in SA v SA A that had Jansen,who nobody could play.Alien conditions as you said. Link to comment
Lord Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 We can't play a spinner in Aus unless he can bat or field well. Chahal is a liability in those conditions Link to comment
LordPrabhzy Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 The priority BCCI gives to T20I and its WCs, and repeated failures in the tournaments, i wont be surprised if BCCI pull support from T20I and focuses more on IPL nevada 1 Link to comment
putrevus Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Some geniuses have only one thing to say if team does not do well. BCCI does not care about tests was slogan before now , it does not care about t20s. BCCI manages cricket, it cannot create talent.IPL has shown how India is woefully short of talented big hitters and finishers. Karthik is being summonned to play finisher roler should say it all about the talent level. nevada, Banton, Lord and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Not sure what is the obsession with picking fat and unfit players who are also poor fielders in the team. We already have two fat players in the team and the other two that you argue about, I don't really think they stand much of a chance of doing well overseas against international team and not B team. When you watch them at IPL, they just don't look like they belong to international level especially overseas test matches. Edited June 15, 2022 by Majestic Norman 1 Link to comment
deepdynamo Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 Pant definitely doesn't deserve to be in T20 setup. 46 matches is a large sample size and to have a mediocre strike rate of 125 is a good enough indication. Link to comment
putrevus Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 First thing is to accept that India stinks with its current style of T20 and odi batting. Then change the attitude and approach towards the batting. Once that happens talented players will adapt .Rahul Dravid becoming coach after Shastri has not helped one bit in changing that attitude.
