Indian white ball cricket will be left behind while opponents enhance skills playing various leagues

[the don]

Have been saying this since the world t20 and the southafrican tour that this is the most pedestrian white ball talent ive seen for India in a long time.

Look how players like Stirling have enhanced their skills playing leagues around the world. BCCi must act now.

I don't disagree.IPL bozos who are dependent on imported players for their teams to do well are being found lacking.When they play as overseas players in other leagues they will be forced to raise their game or will not be signed.

Sterling, who faced a depleted Ind attack, wouldn't get into a full strength Ind 11 though

This was not a depleted indian attack , all these guys are in indias white ball plans bar Bumrah.

Sterling is a better hitter than gaikwad and kishen arguably.

If India needs full strength team to beat Ireland then BCCI needs to just shut everything down.Most of these bowlers played in last t20 world cup except Bumrah.

When non Asian teams play in India (or Asia), they don't do that well (SL beat a full strength Aus in ODIs iirc) ... Home conditions allows team to be more competitive (much like how domestic players are competitive in IPL in Asian conditions)

Being in plans or in the squad and in playing 11 are two different things ... Bishnoi, Axar, etc. are not expected to be in the playing 11 (barring injuries)

 

If Ind is not depeleted despite having two 11s, it shows it has a good bench strength 

 

Many of these guys are new players and/or youngsters, who haven't got a consistent run

Ind has KL, Samson, Hooda, SKY, & Gill too, who are all good top order (#1-3) batsmen with the ability to hit big ... While Ireland is reliant on Sterling, Ind is not reliant on only Kishan & Ritu

 

PS not to mention top order (#1-3) batsmen like Shaw, Jaiswal, etc.

Nonsense ,Indian z team should be able to beat Ireland even in their sleep. But the problem is IPL has given these bozos false sense of entitlement in international cricket.If I was the coach I would ban Hooda for five games for his selfish batting ,he killed all the momentum.

 

Pandya is playing for decade and was out battted by a bowler in Dockrell.That should say something about so called talent in Pandya.

Ireland beat a near full strength england team last year in an ODI...  Their batting especially isn't too bad 

[Nikhil_cric]

I'll say this again. India needs balanced wickets with a bit of spin/movement on offer and we will beat even top sides. 

This was a pitch as extinct as the dodo.

England is not a great white ball cricket team. they are just one dimensional team who can score runs on flat pitches.Nobody wants India to become one dimensional team like England.If they don't score huge totals they are always going to be vulnerable to any team.

Why would Stirling need to play around the world to learn how to play in his home grounds?

By playing around the world , he can understand better on how bowlers are going to bowl to him. That is the experience you can get by playing in different leagues.

Road of a pitch, a track where the Irish have played all their lives.  They know the bounce, the condition, the boundaries, all of it.  Its a frikkin T20 game - any decent hitter can get stuck in for 10-20 balls and win the game for his team.  T20's shorter duration makes "upset" results way more likely.  

 

Folks can read into it what they want, especially those with axes to grind.

Ireland has beaten Pak in World Cup -> Link  

 

PS  In fact, in ODIs, Ireland has beaten BD, Eng, SA, & WI too ... In T20s, Ireland has beaten BD & WI.

And probably better than entire full strength paxtan side

[Suhaan]

 T20 games give a wide opening to minnow sides

paxtan had a decent shot last wc because of the nature of the format

[Suhaan]

Op, despite being shytyy with his posts

Atlast had a point

I do agree, BCCI must allow its players in other leagues,this definitely helps
