Krishna was groomed but he failed I agree. It is also good to see the selections are not influenced by white ball cricket otherwise there was a time when SKY got selected in the squad. Right now, they have got Jaiswal and Gill in the mix, obviously Gill who is touted as best young batsman is all in the sea nowadays but you can only drop him after giving a fair run. Pace bowling needs a little more work but I agree that the options available are not anywhere as good as ICFers mention. Ultimately, you gotta back whatever you chose. Link to comment

You do realize its almost a certainty that if Pant makes it back into the Test side, it will be 100% influenced by his performance in the IPL. Link to comment

No. Pant is a proven performer in Tests. Kishan didn't played ranji games and he plays IPL but he was not considered for Tests. Link to comment

There are easy kills that cause no ripples in the media. It wont surprise me if Patidar is dropped for the next game for KL. Link to comment

tweaker Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Sarfaraz perfomance showed why its necessary to pick someone like him. The selectors, team management should not look for a players to be marketable ie Gill,Iyer,Pandya and but also the main criteria ,playing well on the field.Why was he not selected, when he was consistently scoring runs. Also selectors should think out of box and select smart cricketers like Sarfaraz,Parag etc. Instead of Padikal, Parag may have been considered who is in form ,who can bowl some overs.It would have been ideal when Jadeja,Ashwin,Kuldeep are ineffective. Selectors should consider the main criteria batting and bowling ,and not to worried about how they celebrate their milestones express bowling 1 Link to comment
