Bhuvi Some bowler to bowl new ball. Nattu Bumrah Kuldeep You got 8 six hitters in this line up. You have a goo dmixture of left/right in the line up. IF they want one extra proper fast bowelr Nitish reddy can come in place of Dube You get 4 overs between Parag/Dube/Abhishek Yup, that's the deserving XI and pick a captain out of those. Make anyone of Rinku, Bumrah or Samson captain. And in case it's a spin-friendly pitch, add another spinner such as Sai Kishore, who can bowl in PP, in place of a seamer. At least we wouldn't die wondering like we've been doing for more than a decade now. Edited May 5 by Ultimate_Game vvvslaxman and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot contribute to team anyway. This is where you see teams like Australia always look like having extra players. Like 15 or 16 players due to the way they contribute in various departments.

Doesn't dive to field. You sort have to hide him in the best position. Kohli fields alright. But catch is always 50/50 with him. Jaiswal is good. SSKY is also good. But if we compare with the electric running on the boundary line by guys like Philips, Warner, Maxwell we are nothing. I don't think they care about this aspect. Purple cap, orange cap this is what they look for. Harshal won a purple cap. He was on his way to world T20. Ultimate_Game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams like Aus have players like Head, Green, Maxwell, Marsh etc. who can easily bowl 2-3 overs, can bat and are amazing fielders. Same with Eng, NZ and SA. And here we bring in dad's army of one-dimensional players who can't even do one thing right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rohit is like an anchor on the field and his reflexes are so slow now that by the time he bends down, the ball is already past by him. Chahal and Siraj act as if the ball is a bomb. Same with Avesh and Arshdeep, and Bumrah is a poor fielder as well. Half the squad would be out-fielded by a FC team from Eng, NZ, Aus or SA. Take out Jadeja, the specialist fielder, and we don't have even a single bankable fielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Australia fields it wiill look like 2 vs 22. This advantage is clearly in favor of Aussies. This is one of the reason why NZ consistently punches above the weight. THey are collectively better than us. Ultimate_Game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kohli's chest thumping has gone over the top lately "Look i have conquered the spin" by hitting a couple of sixes against spinners. Let us see whether he actually turned around.
