They should try Tyagi, Mohsin and Khaleel as the 3 quicks in ODIs. 

The madness that is Indian Cricket, I cant even believe this is a discussion. They all should go, so that the best player is picked as a replacement if needed.

They need to always take backups given the fragility and health of our players.

 

Its not like the BCCI cannot afford it.

posters on icf have memory of goldfish. in the few t20s umran played in england/ireland he got hammered and clearly looked like work in progress. India team wants to tag him along to give him exposure thats fine, but in final 15 and in playing xi absolutely not.

As if Bhuvi, harshal and avesh are running havoc on opposition. Avesh in most matches went more than 15 per over on avg, 100 match gadha Bhuvi was bowling to tailenders and spraying wide as if it was his debut match and less said about mediocre Harshal. It's not like any youngsters are going to replace Bumrah or shami kind of bowlers.

India best case is looking at semi exit irrespective of playing xi. I dont want a raw umran thrown in the mix.

No one is talking about now....he should have continuously got as many chance as harshal or avesh in useless biletrals, provided he was best bowler of ipl. But our TM allowed mediocre Bhuvi to shine in stat pad on those inconsequential biletrals.

Toh baaki sab nhi maar khaaye kya?  Boobie Harshal were most expensive pacers we had in bilaterals.  Harshal all phase lodu is making world record of most 50+ runs per match. 

Ghante ki bowling se aacha we back rookies.

Not sure why Mohsin and Khaleel are not given a go. Siraj hasn't uprooted trees in this format and Umran has pace but has no control over line. 

 

I mean Siraj had an economy of over 10 in the last IPL and did not take wickets either.

Those three bowlers, Boobi, Harshal and Avesh are absolute a gourmet buffet delight down under.

 

The batsmen may end up hitting the balls all the way to India with these trundlers.

 

Pathetic India. Pathetic.

[SRT100]

So for India to progress in this WC, we need Kohli and Boobi,Avesh, and Harshal to all get injured?

[SRT100]

I think a few posters on here could easily pick a 2nd Indian XI that could beat our WC team.

The irony is not lost here.

From what I am seeing in Irani Trophy game, Umran's control has been pretty good.

150K pacers are needed in nets for practice.

In matches we play 125K ones.

 

Low IQ of indians is on full display here. They are bashing BCCI for no reason.

Dravid, the genius, is playing 4D chess here.

 

By practicing against 150k pacers, Indian batters would face opposition pacers confidently.

By playing 125k pacers in WC, Dravid plans to outfox reflexes of opposition batters as they wouldn't have any practice against these kind of sweetheart bowlers.

Yes. Avesh and Lord Shardul also made a comeback.

Oh that's good to hear then. Hopefully he can show that in the ODIs if he's been picked. :)

Indian selectors are still dumb. Selecting dudes who do well in A matches for white ball cricket

The play safe mentality of Indian team management want to back bowlers with high floor but low ceiling. None of these bhuvi harshal Chahar and arshdeep can do anything in flat pitches with no swing in Australia... They are containing bowlers who will try to bowl wide slower balls etc hoping the batsman will mishti.which in t20 does not work as 12 balls 30 and out is enough to win you a match.

 

Instead we should back bowlers with high ceiling who can be strike bowlers....having diversity is key..not having three trundlers....the attack is so *ing boring...I feel like not watching the match
