Na na, replace umran with Lord that will be the team. Dhawan won't play Sen or Umran for even one match.

Lord and Deepak are same type of bowler. 

Also Lord batting is of no use at no. 9.Lord can play but in place of Sundar if it's seeming track. 

 

Hooda and kuldeep yadav can still be 2 spinners that way

[Majestic]

Shubman Gill

Shikhar Dhawan

Shreyas Iyer

Rishabh Pant(wkt)

Suryakumar Yadav 

Washington Sundar/Deepak Hooda 

Shahbaz Ahmed

Shardul Thakur

Umran Malik

Arshdeep Singh 

Yuzvendra Chahal

 

The likely XI that Indian team will play.

[rkt.india]

Why selectors don't pick Tewatiya? He is the quintessential #7 bat who can bowl. Sundar isn't #7. Tewatiya jaisa alrounder dikhta nahi. Likes of Kuldeep, Chahal has no place in LOIs especially overseas where pacers are going to do bulk of the bowling. Both one dimensional and not great even with their primary skill. With two new balls, spin has already become less effective in ODIs.

[rkt.india]

I will play 4 seamers, one spinner in Shahbaz and Hooda as batting alrounder.

[Texan]

1. Pant

2. Gill

3. SKY (c)

4. Iyer

5. Hooda

6. Shahbaz

7. Sundar

8. Thakur

9. Chahar

10. Umran

11. Kuldeep Sen

 

Can we bench the captain?

Shubman Gill

Sanju Samson

SKY

Pant (c) and (wk)

Deepak Hooda 

Sundar/Thakur

Shahbaz/Thakur

Chahar

Umran

Kuldeep

Kuldeep

 

This will be my XI...won't consider Dhawan, Pant can do the job...

1. Umran will handle middle and death

2. Kuldeep Sen can handle new ball and death

3. Chahar new ball and middle.

4. Thakur can replace either of Sundar or Shahbaz as needed.

[express bowling]

We need stleast 2 pacers who can bash the pitch hard for bounce after the first 4 overs or so.

 

We saw what Siraj did today or what Hardik did in the WC.

 

Kuldeep Sen and Umran are the obvious candidates to do this in this team. 

 

Both should play.

 

Filling the team with pacers, who are good primarily for the first 4 overs, won't do.

His batting average in List A cricket is 46 with 2 hundreds.

Tewatia's bowling is rubbish. If he is picked, it should be as a pure batsman. Might make sense in T20. Not yet sure about ODIs.

Actually his SMAT numbers are not that bad. He just has to bowl 2 overs here and there which is what Axar did minus with no real batting skills

But TM matter and we don't.

 

Anyway

 

1. Gill

2. Dhawan ( as he is the captain )

3.  Samson

4.  SKY

5. Washington 

6. Pant 

7. Chahar

8. Kuldeep Yadav

9. Umran

10. Arshdeep

11. Kuldeep Sen

 

 

 

Assuming we could get rid of Dhawan, who would you have instead? Same batting order or a rejig?

 

This selection of Dhawan has got me thinking. It really is an Indian cultural thing here where you will never see a young kid and by that I mean a kid around 24 or 25 captaining the country and also being charge of men over the age of 30.

 

Its like they have picked Dhawan simply because he is a father figure.

 

I hope no poster is stupid, ignorant or foolish enough to believe Dhawan will do anything this WC. Please no one tell me his WC records either. They are irrelevant. Only his current form matters.

Otherwise I will post Tendulkar's WC record and ask the BCCI to include him in the playing XI.

Why is everyone picking Thakur over Chahar ? Isn't Chahar more suited for swinging conditions in NZ?

 

Chahar, Arshdeep and Umran should start. Along with Washi and Kuldeep.

Hooda can be the sixth bowler.

 

Starting XI:

 

Dhawan

Gill

SKY

Samson

Pant

Hooda 

Washington

Chahar

Kuldeep

Umran

Arshdeep

 

But pretty sure Iyer will start. So one of Gill or Samson will sit out

Dhawan is the one who should sit out. He has been playing selfishly oflate trying to cement his spot for 2023 world c up.
