That's in T20's. Teams are not looking to play specialist 2nd spinners anymore and ours are pretty defensive spinners at least in outcome if not intent. 

Concept is the same.

 

Anyways, whats your take on todays Aussie bowlers performance?

 

Not asking in a condescending manner.

 

Just curious to know.

 

Green went for 100. 

 

Other pacers got carted.

 

It was Zampa who pulled back. And no doubt he is a great LOI spinner.

Axar is decent bat. Can give some overs too.

His bowling isn't working. Here question is Jadeja 7, dul 8, kuldeep, boom, Sira/शमी।

 

What could be the right combination from 7 to 11.it's all messed up except certainties of kuldeep, boom, Siraj

They don't have the bowling attack . That's why they are looking to bat until 8.

 

Unless they have 4 high quality bowlers + 2 strong back ups, they don't even play 4 bowlers. 

 

The Aussies don't rate bowling all-rounders often. All their good allrounders have been batters first - Watson, Maxwell, Marsh , Stoinis(at least in theory).

 

Abbott is not playing for his batting . They just don't have options whi are experienced enough. They'll play batting until 8, maybe Zampa and 2 pacers. 

 

If all are fit, they might go with an attack of Zampa, Cummins, Josh, Starc on rare occasions. 

 

I think the loss of Travis Head should worry them more.

It's a trade off. No one is giving both bat and ball. Can choose depending on the track.

Dont you see the problem here?

 

If today was a WC knockout..they are done.

 

Heck even if India scored 75 runs less..they are still 99% done cos these totals are brutally hard to chase in a knockout.

 

Their strategy in 2015 was great but the pure bowlers they had were pure fire.

 

Starc of 2015

 

Josh

 

Johnson

 

India in 2011 could stack its batting cos that was our best shot with Yuvi and Raina/Yusuf bowling.

 

In 2023, our batting is not the monster it was in 2011. 

 

Our bowling is not as lame as in 2011.

 

So maybe we need a more balanced approach.

 

Im just thinking out loud here.

 

Havent formed concrete opinions.

They are still better off stacking their batting. They have no chance playing extra bowlers of this quality. They have won 5 World Cups with a batting heavy balance. Occasionally, they'd go Tom Moody at 7 who was a hard hitter or Ian Harvey but honestly they were all picked for their hitting and less their bowling.

 

The issue still continues to be Abbott. Hazlewood and Zampa were fine considering the conditions. I want to see them bowl 30 quality overs and then we can judge.

One question...

 

Ashwin only comes if Axar doesnt recover right?

 

Axar has recovered so Ashwin is already out of the WC no.

 

Even if he performs well...who will he even replace in the squad?

 

And why isnt Sundar not given any chances?

 

Am i missing something?

Its between Axar and Ash. Sundar won't be added so late. Squad has to be finalised by 28th. So unless Axar is match fit by next game , they may go ahead with Ash regardless.

What about this team?

 

Gill

Rohit

Kohli

Iyer

KL

Sky

Pandya

Shami

Siraj

Bumrah

Kuldeep

 

No 6th bowling and batting ends at 7 though. But best Indian batting and best bowling.

 

 

Just 1 spinner? This will be brutalized. Don't bet on seamers doing magic on all the pitches. Today seamers were travelling.

Why its being called 7+4 combination. Its like you have 4 bowlers and the 5th bowler quota will be filled by part timers.

 

No, With pandya at 7 we have full 5 bowlers. Juat trust these 5 bowlers to bowl their full quota.

 

Apart from Chennai and Lucknow, I will not play Jadeja. 

 

This team will give nightmare to any team. Just trust the damn 5 bowlers.

 

Gill

Rohit

Kohli

Iyer

KL

Pandya

Sky

Ashwin

Kuldeep

Bumrah

Siraj

 

On turners, Jadeja comes in for Sky.
