T20 teams should be based on a philosophy

[straighttalk]

Players should be selected based on that philosophy and not trying to fit in players or force a philosophy on players.

 

1. If aggressive cricket is the philosophy back players like Samson Tripathi etc.

2. If aggressive cricket is philosophy have bowling ar upto 9

3. If variety is philosophy back lefties like ishan pant etc. Change the top order 

 

4. Have variety in bowling...not all trundlers who cannot field or bat and are not substantially better than others.

 

Focus on players who can score 10 ball 25 and occasional 50s rather than players who score 40 balls 50. 

Once that philosophy is clear...you can select the players. India is doing the opposite. Selecting players first and then defining a philosophy.

 

 

[sensible-indian]

The team management is not only confused but also DUMB.

 

These selection blunders are crazy.

I do not understand how you can play aggressive cricket when the batting ends at 7... If that's how you want to play..then do the consolidation until 15 overs and hit out like old. Same who is going to be a wicket taking bowler if entire game plan revolves around slower balls and wide lengths with occasional yorkers

Sanju Samson 

He has an avg of 20 in T20Is despite playing against very inferior quality attacks.

This is just the case of a player looking better just because he didn't play.

[Adamant]

What was the philosophy of Australian team when they won the last world cup? 

 

All these intent and philosophy talks are useless, just play according to the situation and win the match for us. 

 

The problem with us that we overhype our players after they play one knock. 

 

Pandya was hyped to the moon after he made 33 in a low pressure match vs Pak.

 

On the other hand, no one in Pakistan or world rates Mohd Nawaz even after his blitz vs India, our players simply don't deserve the hype they get

 

 

Surya is also explaining pretty well to us what's the difference between IPL and international cricket. 

 

The less said about Pant the better. 

 

When our top order was in form they were miles above their counterparts, but this middle order even at the peak of their power can't compete with the likes of Asif, Shadab, Nawaz, lol. 

 

 

[Prabhdeep Singh]

* Play 6 bowlers including H Pandya

* Play 2 Spinners & 4 Seamers combination

* Play left handed batsman only if they are good

* Axar should play instead of Jadeja if injured

your point on batting completely expose team India on their philosophy.. when Eng took this approach their number 9,10 could win matches with bat.. our batting stops at 7.. atrocious

Your playing 11 is awesome....and can actually win...forget leggies and Bhuvi...jadeja can slot in place of axar if needed and arshdeep or bhuvi can replace Shami if he is ineffective
