2nd T20I , Edgbaston ,July 09, 2022, India tour of England

Anti climax.  Roy is he out of form ? that was a tame poke from him. 

[Sgattick10]

Axar as a batsman is not selfish like jaddu 

[vishalvirsingh]

great captaincy by rohit sharma, also a good catch.

bhuvi is brilliant in his first spell.

Agreed, would love to have a player like Livingstone in T20 but Jadeja is the best spin bowling all-rounder we got 

 

if Jadeja is batting well, he is likely to make it for the #6-7 slot … Since Ind would have 6-7 bowling options, Jadeja is not required to bowl his full quota 

 

Unfortunately, the 3 of the 4 main bowlers Bumrah, Bhuvi, & Harshal are not wkt taking one unless conditions favor them. Yuzi of course looks for wkts

[vvvslaxman]

If we win this one everyone should believe in Rohit touch :)

[goose]

bhuv is such a nerd

[Ankit_sharma03]

Rohit at slip - right choice........dont let kohli stand there

kohli should be hanging on the stands with the crowd. 

[Vivek92]

Amazing movement, Bhuvi is getting.is extracting with the new ball 

[vvvslaxman]

This Bhuvi would have been atleast half as good as Anderson if he had played more Tests in England.  Couldn't keep himself fit. 

[Sgattick10]

My 11 would be 

 

Rohit

Pant

Kohli

Hooda

Sky

Pandya

Jaddu/Axar

Harshal/Umran

Bhuvi

Arshdeep

Bumrah

 

[Vickydev]

Wicket maiden

[Vickydev]

I think Pandya should be on from the other end

[coffee_rules]

0/1  are we playing in India? It is a sea of blue in the stadium

Agreed. Why is Arshdeep dropped after last match performance, baffling really. We need a left armer to add variety.

Given the WT20 is at Aussie, a tall hit the deck seamer ala Prasidh should be backed, granted he is not a good death bowler

jaddu is beating our best batsmen in batting....Jaddu is one of the first few guys who get into indian team. his selection is as confirmed as Rohit's or hardik's selection.

Axar is just kept in case jaddu is unfit - though i wont pick axar even if that happens.

Whom will you take, in his place? 

Axar, Sundar?

 

We already have an option in Hooda who can chip in if any of the 5 bowlers have a bad day. Why would you need these bits and pieces guys? 

[Jay]

fukrah on attack now. 

[Frustrated]

Bhuvi outbowling Bumrah.  Eh..

Arshdeep is also not a wkt taking bowler unless it swings. More often than not, he looks to contain  … Umran & Moshin look for wkts
