2023 World Cup line up as of now

[Prabhdeep Singh]

Possible 15 Man Squad:

 

Rohit (C)

Dhawan/S Gill

Kohli

Pant (WK)

S Iyer/KL Rahul/SKY

Pandya

R Jadeja

D Chahar/S Thakur

K Yadav

M Shami

J Bumrah

Most likely it will be Chahal ahead of Kuldeep going by how Indian TM selects their squad.

 

Add Siraj as well and I think we should be good.

 

[Majestic]

Indian experts like Gavaskar, Akash Chopra, Irfan Pathan etc on Dhawan and KL Rahul:-

 

"What wrong have they done to not be selected in the team? Aap Shikhar Dhawan ko drop karege?? kL Rahul ko drop karege?"

 

Me - "Abe Ben Stokes, aankh khol aur stats nikal kar dekh, what wrong they did?" 

 

 

[zen]

The question to ask is not “what wrong have they done?” but “can they win the cup?” 
 

If the answer is “no”, “who can?” … if still the answer is “no one”, “who can we develop”?

 

[rkt.india]

Shami?

[Majestic]

I checked the Bangladesh ODI squad in which Rohit, Rahul and Kohli are back. Pandya and Suryakumar are not in Bangladesh squad while Kishan is there. Any reason behind it? Also, no Samson. 

 

Shouldn't Samson be ahead of Kishan for ODI squad? And anyways both Hardik and Surya should be ahead of these two so the selection argument for Kishan and Samson is pointless anyways.

Basically a very similar playing 11 that lost in WC 2022, barring Bumrah.

Dhawan is almost a certainty to play.

 

Its madness, but he will be in the final XI.

 

So we can expect slow sedate starts as well in ODI cricket.

You guys believe Shaw, Gill, Samson, Pant, Abhishek Sharma, Pandya, Riyan, Umran etc can guarantee to win the cup in one year preparations? If not, back the facking team we go with. Stop being rudaalis and bring in the change after we lose in the SFs

People who understand sports do not back a team esp. of has beens to lose in SFs ... Either you pick a team that can win or back cricketers who can take the experience to win now or in future 

 

In T20WC22, Ind lost in SF. What did it gain? ... If it had played talented youngsters, they could have been better placed to win Ind the 2023 WC ... Right now, Ind is not moving forward 

 

 

 

 

[cricketfan28]

Rohit (C)

Dhawan/S Gill(backup)

Kohli

SKY

Pant (WK)

S Iyer

Pandya

R Jadeja

D Chahar/S Thakur

K Yadav

M Shami

J Bumrah

[cricketfan28]

may be include 1-2 youngsters as backup. Nothing has changed much in 50-50 so existing team should do fine.

[jf1gp_1]

Our top 3 are extremely talented specially Virat. In this 3 ill also add Dhawan. So we have exceptional 4. What have these guys won us ? Is age on there side for them to change or improve ? Rohit/Dhawan/Virat/Jaddu/Shami/Bhuvi have now played 5-6 ICC events since 2015. They couldnt do it at their peak, then its not happening anymore. We arent winning WC23 with above guys, everyone knows it but as a fan i wont accept it till we are out.

Gill is not going to play. Chahal and KL Rahul will play.

 

Bumrah likely will "decline" to play to preserve himself for IPL, so replace him with slow medium Bhuvi Kumar.

[Number]

Rohit : captain + because he did well in last ODI wc

Dhawan : because he has a great record in icc tournament

Kohli : no comments

Rahul : because he is our next captain

pant : wk

pandya : only AR

jadeja : spinner with good batting at no. 7

Ashwin : Experience needed for big tournament + batting depth

Chahal : only leggie in the country

Shami : Experience needed for big tournaments 

Bhuvi : more experience needed for big tournaments

Preferred 11 (at this point)

 

Gill

Pant (assuming will get a run as an opener or someone like a Samson)

S Iyer (will give him a chance in Ind)

SKY

Samson (can open to swap position with Pant) 

Sir Don 

Tewatia or Hooda or Sundar or V Iyer or …  (someone who can bowl a few overs) 

Moshin

Bishnoi/Kuldeep/… (wkt taking spinner)

Umran or Siraj or … 

Bumrah 

* open to a reevaluation to play players based on form at the time of the World Cup

 

[Adamant]

Lol at not having the greatest odi cricketer of all time in the eleven. 

 

He smacked a few heads with his batting in t20 wc yet again. Now it's time for odis. 

[Adamant]

My eleven would be :

 

Gill

Rohit (c) 

Kohli

Pant

Sky/ Rahul

Hardik

Jadeja

Kuldeep

Siraj

Prasidh 

Bumrah

 

Reserves - 

Umran

Samson

I am sick and tired of watching our spinners bottle it in big games. Hope we have seen the last of Ashwin in white ball.
