Pandya is a fraud who is nether batsman nor bowler.He is definition of bits and pieces player who even after 6 years is yet to play a defining knock with bat. Afridi had just 6 or 7 memorable knocks in his career spanning over twenty years. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment

Pandya is not even half the player Afridi was, but Pandya still is needed for this Indian team. Afridi is a T20I ATG, not a white ball ATG. He was basically a white ball great when he took his bowling as main role around mid-2000s and it lasted till 2011. Apart from that, he was mostly bits and pieces. Link to comment

You don't need 100 memorable innings. He has over 400 wickets in odis and 8000 runs.and was player of tournament in both shorter formats. Pandya in his wildest dreams would not reach those figures.

putrevus Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 (edited) 4 hours ago, Gambit said: Maybe ATG in his district. He is no way near being an ATG in ODI cricket. He may have been if his batting and bowling averages were reversed. How is he not a ATG in ODI cricket. 8000 runs and 400 wickets? batting 23 avg with SR over 177 is not bad at all for a bowler with 400 wickets? Edited November 2, 2022 by putrevus Link to comment
zen Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 (edited) MO batsmen are judged more on the ability to play per the situation and handle pressure. If a player walks in at 30/4, his SR is going to be different. If the batsman comes in at the death, where he has to attack from ball one, the SR would depend on the rhythm on the day. Dhoni, Bevan, etc. may not necessarily score high on SR but are known for their ability to play per the situation and handle pressure. Pant too if he plays to his potential can be a gamechanger .... Many MO players also perform with the ball, which brings additional dimensions into play! Edited November 2, 2022 by zen express bowling 1 Link to comment
putrevus Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Fricking Pandya's SR is 102 along with DK's SR of 63. These two bozos are supposed to be finishers. They are playing for other teams than Indian team. How many more chances Pandya needs to showcase his so called talent. Link to comment

Redk84 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) He won't be dropped...can't be. AR who has a lot of ability But he needs to add more to his batting shot selection. Been figured out a bit and needs to work on his game Also there's no point using up balls to set yourself and giving your wicket away cheaply, he is not and won't be the last to be guilty of this but you put that pressure on yourself you have to back it. Comes with experience - keep the scoreboard ticking dont just back yourself for big shots only Edited November 3, 2022 by Redk84 Link to comment

Are you seriously comparing someone who usually batted lower down the order, with just one new ball, & lots of "help" to bowlers with Sobers lite? Surely you can't be this delusional While Panda may have more ability with the bat, brining Afridi's numbers without context is just plain BS. Link to comment

This TM have *ed up royally while giving roles to players in XI.. Played umpteen matches before WT20 but never tried DK at 5. Their rigid approach in fitting DK in this XI was appalling..You aren't going to need Finisher (If there is) in every match but you are going to need proper bat at 5 in every match. If Kartik wasn't good enough to play at 5,he should never be picked. Edited November 3, 2022 by Bigg Brother Link to comment
