ODI/T20Is squads announced for SL series

[nitinbwj]

Iyer is the best player of spin. Period. We won't be able to smash spinners without him. SKY is ok but Iyer is a beast. Hooda may be 

[nitinbwj]

Where is Bishnoi? 

[nitinbwj]

Tripathi is in squad again. Will he get a game this time?

I like the T20 squad but Hardik won't bowl his 4 overs now for sure. He bought Hooda to do that. He might bowl an over or 2. As a captain, he would like to prolong his career. 

Good point! Some were wondering why Hooda is in and this makes perfect sense. 

[nitinbwj]

Rahul will bat in middle order ( He should) in ODI's and screw us. 

[Mosher]

What wrong has Bishnoi done? Mukesh Kumar in T20

I have seen him do that with Hooda when had the authority. It's a pattern. Hooda is Hardik's first choice.

That 200 forced selectors to include Kishan.

Man how clear squad looks when No Kohli, Rohit and KL. Hopefully, we get to see that in ODI squad as well.

Pant is the most important player for BGT trophy. It is ok for him to skip this series. He was going to warm bench anyways. 

Yes. I would want a fit Pant for Tests.

Good T20 squad barring a few omissions. Bishnoi not included. 

[nitinbwj]

Rohit hasn't done jack in ODI's recently and has fitness issues. It's a bad selection

[nitinbwj]

How has Mavi done recently? Ranji followers might know.

Mukesh hasn't even played IPL? He is suppose to be good only in red ball cricket from whatever I'm reading on the net. 

[nitinbwj]

No Rajat Patidar 

[Pollack]

T20 bowling selection is garbage. All trundlers except Umran. Has Mavi done anything recently? Am I missing anything? He has regressed. This can turn out like Avesh. Mukesh kumar is quota pick and again what are his credentials in t20 format.

Apart from it, dont like selection of hooda (Gujarat lobby) and Gaikwad (not intl class but can be fine for SL series). 

 

ODI : Its time to drop Shami chacha. He might still be good but we need to find someone else since he is hit or miss and old. Arshdeep shouldn't be playing ODIs, only t20s.

Averaging 12 after two games. Averaged 17 in Vijay hazare, 14 in Mushtaq Ali trophy.

Was he good? Speeds?

[Frustrated]

Happy to see no ashwin in any of the LOI squad.  I feared his inclusion in ODI squad after his match winning knock against toygers.  Some sanity prevailed at last.

Imagine the madness of Indian Cricket, it took a double century in an ODI for the BCCI and TM to turn to Kishan.

 

If he scored a "normal" century or 150 he probably wouldnt have been considered.
