Indian test squad for WI announced


Recommended Posts

Decent squad never expected whole sale changes...  Gujara getting dropped is ideal. 

Phasing out Rohit & Kohli before SA Test series this year won't be ideal.  I feel that could be final series for them.  Maybe for even Karate kid 2.0.

 

Also they should stop Gill opener experiment & give him a long rope at 3. Open with a left hander Jaiswal.   No Gaikwad. 

 

 

Pace stocks are depleted...  Saini ain't a bad pick considering SA Test series.   Could be poor man's Anrich Nortje.

No Sarfaraz is heights of injustice.  They could have rested Rohit for this series. He isn't going to play Test for another 6 months. 

 

I would have made Ashwin VC

 

There is no clear communication on why he is being excluded. And also there is not enough questions from the press on this subject. We just have to assume it is something to do with fitness. Moment Pujara is kicked out he should have been the one who should have been selected. Selecting another opener RUturaj makes zero sense.

I just hope West Indies comes out and plays like how they play against England.  Just in case if you think our elite batting line up can atleast bully West Indies in West Indies then you are wrong. Gujara sucked even there. Kohli 34 avge. IN the last series. Even Ishant sharma averaged more than Kohli/Pujara.

Why would any player demand rest from a test series? 

Considering the fact that most of them are not in contention for WTC 2025...wouldn't it make sense to give someone young a consistent chance.

Realistically, Rohit isn't going to play Tests, his fitness is too poor. Pujara, Rahane and Kohli all will be 37-38 by 2025...so does Ashwin and Jadeja.

 

If you're serious of winning WTC, this is the right time to transition. Not 2-3 months before the finale.

How Unadkat made ODI squad? Umran Malik flopped in IPL. Navdeep Saini?


Fast bowler selection is shocking

Saini is 6 year late..he was a surety in 2017 when we was 140-150 kph bowler.

Now he is 130-140 and in 30's.

 

Unadkut is because of the pecking order...despite not playing any game.
