nah its okay, he has to perform v big teams too.Lots of alternatives otherwise.

 

Samson is more suited to T20.

Samson averaged 56 in ODIs before this game. dont see any problem there.

As I feared, throws it away

...  what is it with these 50s. So many overs, brilliant pitch and not so challenging bowling. Should have scored 150.

Bandya gives me the vibe of Afrerard. He used to walk with same confidence as bandya.

Samson should build on this innings.

if people want them to bat like England way, they need to accept such dismissals. live or die same way.  important is no consolidation. just come and  bat aggressively.

But thats ok he dint slow down. Good inning he could have turned it in to great one, but the way he counter attack was need of the hour.

Samson has ability to launch from ball one, I have not seen many Indian batsmen do that plus he is WK.

 

Is a number 4 , no but I would rather have him over guy like Rahul who clearly cannot handle pressure.

SkY will have license to play fancy shots from the get go

[raki05]

Potential Pandya is trying to show his potential.

[Downtown]

Excited for Pandya's so-called "unique" 12 (30) innings today. It's always the same old story with his fake aggression, fake attitude, and fake bravado. It's like he thinks he's some big shot on the field, but in reality, it's all just a show for gully cricket! Does he really think anyone buys into that act? I highly doubt he was ever successful in gully cricket, let alone on the big stage! Ugh, it's just frustrating to watch him play with such arrogance and lack of substance.

You know what? I'd take Rahul Dravid coming out of retirement and keeping the wickets for us any day, rather than having that idiot KL Rahul in the playing team. Dravid would still do a better job both with his batting and keeping skills than this guy. 

[raki05]

Outside off stump Pandya is absolute rubbish.

[putrevus]

I have nothing against Pandya but I have watched him for last 7 years .He simply does not have ability to launch from ball one.

 

He is not good enough to be top order batsman or can bowl 10 overs every match.

 

Can he make up for lost deliveries today and get to SR of 100 or more sure if he play till 50 overs.

 

How is it new age batting, and how is this bozo leading India to match teams like England.

[rageaddict]

Pandya killing momentum.

[raki05]

Utter selfish play by these 2 . aAt one point 500 was possible now even 330 would be difficult. In 30 overs we were 211.

[raki05]

Lol who sent this guy at 5. Tuk tuk Bandya is playing match loosing inning on such a good pitch.

Pandya and Gill absolutely stalled by spin. Last 5 overs 7 runs.. I mean BC.. 

 

Samaon and Iyer are the only spin hitters that we have. Imagine we can't hit spin when we were 200 plus in 30. Besharam Pandya 

[Norman]

Wtf is this guy doing? Atleast rotate the strike you muh...

[raki05]

Last 9 over just 33 runs.
