Spot on, Selectors and coaches have to tell these players that they are looking out for them and they are being groomed for those roles and instruct them to work on needs for those roles . But in reality what we are seeing is random players getting selected in name of team building. That is why you are seeing too many wks or too many top order players with same skill sets. These random selections are going on for too long. Edited January 4, 2023 by putrevus Link to comment

Instead of coaches, IPL coaches working on these players for specific roles they are just selecting players randomly and then dropping them randomly unless there is some exceptional performance. Indian cricket is a big circus at the moment. Link to comment

Indian cricket is a big circus at the moment. Problem is with players also everyone wants to be top order batsman. Guy like Pandya who should have mastered that closing role has become an accumlator but is somehow rewarded by made into captain. Link to comment

Lord Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Better T20 option than Sundar if he bowls 2 overs regularly. But he doesnt even bowl. Not good enough as a bat cricspirit 1 Link to comment

I belive ve when our spinner get bashed mercilessly that is the time we should try Hooda or tripathi kind of option motormouth pandua speaks a lot but haven't seen any innovative captaincy or even trying new bowling option. If he really want to challange his players as he says he had opportunities to try hood in place of one of spinners or Harshal and in second match he could have tried himself , tripathi or Hooda in place of Arshdeep. I think rather than talking like an idiot in post match he should implement it on field. SRT100 1 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Currently this guy is trending on twitter. Thought this guy will improve as a lower order batsman. I don't think he has the game to be a finisher. Originally a stop gap arrangement. Pandya is trying to make him permanent in the name of 6th bowling option. This is bias. You would rather pick Chahar. He can finish better against pace. Edited January 28, 2023 by vvvslaxman Link to comment
deepdynamo Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Next WT20 is in WestIndies. Typical slow and low pitches there. Don't think Hooda and Triptahi bring any value in Windies. Hate to say this but in such conditions Kohli is still our best bet. Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Have always maintained that He isn't international material, Indian team's viewpoint on AR needs to change, someone who can bat a bit and roll his arm over isn't called AR. He doesn't fit in any category, can't rely on his batting, let's just not talk about pie chucking. Our own Farhan Beherdian. An ugly looking batsman as well with no technique and temperament.. An All-rounder needs to bowl minimum 60% Quota of his bowling in every match regardless of situation.. Hooda is at best Dubai and Road safety league material,gets to play IPL only because he is Indian.. Sundar-Pandya-Hooda so many misfits in the Indian line up on the name of AR. This Indian T20 bunch is mediocre, infact Indian T20 team has been historically mediocre and unwatchable barring 2007 Wt20..

It's the complete opposite of what you described about Hooda, Tripathi, Kohli. Link to comment

Never seen him in the IPL and only limited capacity seen him in international cricket. He just is not a good player at all, not even something remotely anything good about him that you can hope and persevere with. Given he rarely bowls, I would rather us get another batsman in the team like Shaw etc. In fact Hooda gives ICF posters hope on here that they too could play for India, as talent is not a criteria. raki05 1 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 He is unsuitable for middle order and finishing as he has no acceleration skills against Hooda. DK for all his mental midgetry was decent against seamers. Last 3 years MO performance (4-7) by Indians in T20 (min 50 balls). Hooda is at the absolute bottom. Link to comment
