Yeh sab pehle hee sochke they should've included him or at least coached the 3 that were there to implement a Plan B. I am just really irritated that these guys got outsmarted tactically. Losing if we are less capable from a skills standpoint is acceptable, but to be outwitted due to lack of preparation and analysis is just hard to swallow. Link to comment
Number Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Our spinners are not fighting the ball that much to extract bounce. Bowling quite fast and straight into stumps makes it easier to sweep. Link to comment

Somewhere along the way there, couldn't they figure out or be coached to change tactics and not feed him sweepable balls? AKane 1 Link to comment

We should feel sorrow for ourselves for following this dumb sport, where the team cap(2021 Eng tour) cares more for IPL & his brand value than winning big games for his country!

tweaker Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Kuldeep has no variety to counter sweeps and reverse sweeps Link to comment
Frustrated Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Flat pitches which offer low bounce are ideal for sweeps and reverse sweeps (if executed properly). Rajkot pitch has always been that sort of highway. Similar to the ones which our padosis keep preparing. There is no way to counter sweeps/rev sweeps. For Team Ind, the best bet is to let Bumrah and Siraj bowl longer spells with tight lines and hope for some rev.swing. (Don't hv any hope from losers like Kuldeep who are meek and suck in every dept. WC2023 gives us an idea as to how useless he is when things don't go his way). BacktoCricaddict and tweaker 2 Link to comment
BacktoCricaddict Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 (edited) How about a 7-2 field and keep bowling leg/middle-leg at high-ish speeds so they can't wind up for reverse sweeps? How much will they sweep into fielders hands? Unless they are really good at the inside-out stuff, they're going to be bottled up. But then again, what do I know? I was just in the top-3 in gully cricket and there were only 2 other guys in my gully who played cricket. Edited February 16 by BacktoCricaddict tweaker and express bowling 2 Link to comment

A fast outside line ball got lucky for Duckett’s wicket. Well rewarded for Kuldeep Vijy 1 Link to comment
