are you saying we wont reach semifinals???

 

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

We will get beaten by Pak and SA.

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.

DK is better than Pant atm. Pant isnt suited for T20.

The weather forecast on 23rd isn't promising at all. 60℅ chance of rain throughout the afternoon and evening. 

Kar lo match... :facepalm:

Too early to predict...  Anyway, between these 2 options.  a) Ind losing  and  b) Washout.  Which one would u prefer?

Washout, Washout, Washout. I have no hopes in our jokers who are picked on non performance basis.

WHichever team has the highest bowler ranking should be declared winner.  Bhuvi 13th, Shadab 14th. Yes !! we will win.

Zero games since WT20 2021, will play in XI too :hatsoff:

 

This scenario illustrates perfectly the madness that is Indian Cricket.

 

0 games and yet he is playing.

 

But the TM and BCCI have the audacity to believe they know more than us.

Why are people acting like this guy is a trash bowler? He might not be great but he isn't horrible either.

It's not about Shami. It's about selectors and TM, I would prefer Shami anyday over the trundlers which are in aus. But all this hoopla by selectors and TM that Shami won't be considered for t20 and suddenly he is pushed to play wc without playing a single T20 after 21 wc.

Honestly barring the experience meme, taking an undercooked Shami to the WC is not a million miles away from taking one of Sen or Umran only that in one you have an emphasis on giving youth a chance. They are probably more 'match fit' than he is atm too. If he is a Bumrah replacement the implication is that he will be a lock on the team sheet but that probably won't be the case more so after the selectors publicly said that he won't be considered for t20s due to not being suited for it showing a complete lack of vision. Anyways it is what it is, no use whining about it now. Better to cross fingers and hope that the Hail mary works.
