putrevus Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I maybe in minority batting would be fine as long Rohit and Virat do well. Based on what I saw in IPL and all the new batting talent who have been given chances in various matches. There are no batsman who we can say has missed out. Bowling is where there are lot of issues. raki05 and nitinbwj 2 Link to comment
IndianRenegade Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Biggest problem aside from lack of good bowling options: Fielding: Ashwin, Arsheep, Bumrah, Chahal, Bhuvi are all bad fielders, how do you hide these many in the field? Batting: Arshdeep, Bumrah, Chahl, Bhavi we are screwed with this tail. in T2OI you can't achieve anything without good fielding or batting depth. We now need the TO + MO to do all the work & bowling to be good enough that it makes fielding irrelevant. Since we know none of this will happen consistently enough, we are going nowhere in the WC.

Batting depth cannot be solved by selectors.Where are the bowlers who can bat. Fielding as your rightly pointed out is very very important.India has too many weak fielders. Link to comment

coffee_rules Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 One noob question. Will the reserves also travel to Australia and participate in nets? Link to comment

I think so. I at least hope so, it would just be unreasonable to have someone fly in the middle of tournament & get acclimatized. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment

And I think DK will play in place of pant. Edited September 12, 2022 by straighttalk raki05 1 Link to comment

T20 is a format where other than last over yorkers .every one is going to get smashed...back multi faceted players who can't bat a bit field well and bowl ok..we have such players shardul Deepak c Washington v iyer hooda etc. Back some lefties and give chances.

Also samson over shreyas bouncer bunny iyer The injury of Deepak really set us back here, the team can't go in with both Deepak & Shardul, none of them are death bowlers. If Deepak hadn't gotten injured when he did he could have played more games before the Asia cup, could have even made it ahead of Avesh & eventually to the squad. An attack with in form Deepak, Bhishnoi, Bumrah (these 3 could have bowled the first 6) Arshdeep/Harshal, Bumrah (death overs) looks a lot better in terms of batting depth than the current mess we have. putrevus and raki05 2 Link to comment
SRT100 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Please note that given the poor fitness base and lack physical training and conditioning by most Indian players, I expect the backups to actually play in the WC. Injuries is going to happen Down Under. What is worse is that TM failed to give the backups experience in tournaments like the Asia Cup instead of resting and retiring certain players. raki05 1 Link to comment

nitinbwj Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Why was Umran bowling at 145 kmph? Why wasn't he backed like run leaker Avesh who played as recently as Asia Cup? There is lots more going on in the TM meetings and the crooked minds of TM than we know. He deserved more chances. Even Prasidh was tonked in every game and still got more chances!! Look what they have done with Bishnoi now. SRT100, putrevus and raki05 3 Link to comment
Frustrated Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Wonder what would be the avg age of the squad selected? Looks like 33-34. Is it T20 tournament or test series? raki05 and SRT100 2 Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Catching has to be top notch. Not like this. Dropped back to back catches of Chahar's bowling. Kohli dropped the ball on to his head lol Edited September 13, 2022 by vvvslaxman Link to comment

Majestic Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 This squad would have been better : Rohit Rahul Kohli Pant SKY Pandya Axar Bhuvi Arshdeep Bumrah Chahal Bishnoi ( instead of Ash) D Karthik Shami( You don't need Harshal in squad because Arsh and Boom will cover death overs) D Hooda ( Hooda and Ash both in 15 don't make sense) Reserves: D Chahar Harshal ( Mohsin should have been tried) Samson/ kishan Ashwin Link to comment
straighttalk Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Now that we have this shitty ass squad..I hope they will choose this 11 but it won't happen Rohit KLR Kohli Sky Pandya Dk Axar Deepak C H Patel Ashwin Bumrah Pant is a leftie but he isn't doing well and dk needs to be given a go Axar plays as a floater. Batting upto number 9...so go hard No leggie and no leftie...but this is best we can do. Option is to get one of bhuvi or chahal in and get pant in place of another batsman or pant and hooda in place of axar and dk. Link to comment

Shami in 1st place has been terrible in t20, even his PP numbers are nothing good...............in death he is horrible Link to comment
