It puts too much pressure on Pandya to hit big/finish everytime. All good teams will have 2-3 hitters from 5 to 7 who can manage a s/r of 115 throughout the innings. We will have only Pandya for that role. It will put him under extra pressure. Edited January 10, 2023 by Number Link to comment

putrevus Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) Hyping him when he does something and dismissing him when he fails is ridiculous. He will be just fine at number4 give him time.He will not be facing Starc at his best everyday either. Edited March 19, 2023 by putrevus Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 He may regress in T20 as well if they continue this experiment. It is not outlandish to think of using his form. But We have seen enough now. He is not making use of his opportunities. He is no Harry Brook who does this in all formats. Frustrated 1 Link to comment

Does Pak also hv a Starc? Link to comment

In short, he is a fraud who might do well only in bilateral t20s against opponents who usually dont field their best playing 11 as they want to experiment. That's why performamce in bilaterals hardly counts. Link to comment

So what, he has taken sometime, How many matches and positions did Rohit play before he found his game in whiteball cricket. A guy like SKY needs one confident innings, he will be just fine.

I don't recall Afridi getting him out even once as he has hardly faced afridi. He failed against every other bowler in Pak line up in all those 5 games. My point is very simple. He fails against every half decent bowler in icc tournaments against top ranked teams. And that trend won't change either. He is already a buddha. Soon gonna be 33 Link to comment
Jamadagni Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Most Indian fans are dumb. They don't deserve trophies. SKY is a champion player and will be the main difference if he plays the upcoming world cup. Btw, I agree he should bat 5 or 6 though. Link to comment

A guy like SKY needs one confident innings, he will be just fine. Still no reason just to average 34 in List A. In one dayers you have to be good enough to survive more overs and score runs. He has not displayed it so far. At this age giving him endless chances to an unproven player in this format at any level is futile exercise. He was not exactly an under-19 star. Not a domestic list A star. So we are blindly backing him purely baesd on his T20 skill where the challenge is different. Frustrated 1 Link to comment
Frustrated Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Some fans seriously hv short memories. They think SKY will do well at no 5 or 6. In reality, SKY is being tried at no.4 right now only becz he played his first 10 odi games batting at no 5 and sometimes at 6 and failed miserably even at that position. (Averaging just 15...LMAO). He is not (and never will be) a finisher like Dhoni or Beven. Link to comment
Adamant Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I think , we can give some more time to sky, not totally convinced on him but let's stickwith him for some time. Link to comment
