With SA dismissing Bavuma will be a disaster.

if we get out in 150 , u also dont want someone like bavuma holding one end 

[vishalvirsingh]

if I was ROHIT, I would request BCCI to replace harshal with Siraj and then we have a strong attack as Siraj is doing well even in bowling the last overs.

Don't worry India won't get that far lol We are not in Australia group. We will get our ass kicked before that.

are you saying we wont reach semifinals???

 

My prediction is we will not reach FINALS - we may get beaten in Semifinals.

Sa is one game where shami can come in handy, take new ball wkts and break their back . They dont have the depth to comeback unless miller-markram plays blinders 

Also the likes of shamsi and nortje are suddenly out of form and they look pretty confused and unsure about their lineup. Need to hit them hard and get that win. 

 

PAK will be tougher to beat

shamsi was hit by iyer so lets see how he does without him, but i dnt see him finding a place in XI

Nortje shud do well on these pitches logically although i hope his bad form continuous 

 

If we win against them they have to play Pak SCG which shud suit Pakistan

One Miller innings will cover all their weakness. It is essentially Miller vs India. He can singlehandedly wipe floor with these trundlers. Then there is Klassen who has birthright to castrate Chahal

If Bavuma gets out early, we are doomed.

Uthappa saying Shami is right choice given his "experience". Figures......

Nortje was breathing fire in final ODI...  Bowling snorters at 149-150k...  His fuller length would have been 154-155.

Will be different facing him in Perth.  Kohli & Rohit are our best bet against him still.

Master Stroke- we should not dismiss Bavuma.

[sandeep]

Was I hoping to see Siraj instead of Shami? Yes.

 

Is it a marginal call, with Shami also not being that much worse of a choice? Yes.

 

Should we stop the moaning about 50-50 selection calls and get behind the team and players whom we claim to be "fans" and "supporters" of?  You tell me.

Aw the eggsperience. I hate that word. He has played grand total of 17 T20Is of which 7 times he conceded 11 runs per over. Almost 40%.

They have batting power - Riley, Klassen, Miller and possibly  Quinton, Stubbs  can any of them score a 60-70 to get a large total. Maharaj and Jansen(replacing Pretorius) can swing the bat.

Saffie team will be

 

de Kock

Markram/Hendricks/Bavuma

Roussow

Klassen

Miller

Stubbs

Maharaj

Jansen

Rabada

Nortje

Ngidi

 

Stubbs is a wk/batsman but he can bowl too. I am actually concerned about this Stubbs fellow. Young chap too - 22 odd.

Thread title says 'Shami has replaced Bumrah'.    Why are so many posters here assuming that Shami has replaced Harshal?   Dont understand this.   Or am I missing something?

i trust that we will beat PAK and South Africa  on Australian grounds.

Teams that are tough to beat are Australia , NewZealand and England. i would believe that we can beat Asian countries and South africa even in Australia.

 

I think Asian Spinners look like cats on Australian Pitches and the aggression that asian batsman show on asian grounds is not going to be there on Australian grounds so beating Australia, new zealand and England will be tough.

Pak batting is heavily dependent on BABAR and Rizwan. The Swing King BHuvi is deadly with the new ball and arsh is also looking at the top of his form, if Shammi is in form and the six overs are rotated between these 3 , I expect that they will take at least 2 wickets against PAK.

BCCI has taken the RIGHT decision by reaching Australia early and practicing so i think Indian batsman would be in good touch till 23rd October 2022.

Our first 4 are stronger than PAK first 4 - Surya , KL, Rohit is a big player though he is not at his peak form and Kohli are heavier than PAK best 4.

Shaheen and Naveem Shah are dangerous, Rauf has an accuracy Issue.

 

I hope Indians Pick Rishabh ahead of Karthick as Karthick the old man may have sighting issue's against these extra quick pacers. 

More so if the conditions are Swing friendly then our bowling attack BHUVI,ARSH, SHammi  become more Potent then PAK attack.

Against Australia i have more faith in others. I don't think we will even need DK. Real issue will be Pakistan and SA.

Hello. T20 requires attitude more than skill. Best choice was Shardul. He does not like it when he gets hit and he likes to hit when he bats. Went by experience and reputation than attitude. Not the best choice.

Surprised Kohli didn't push for his buddy to be called up
