It feels like they , Mohit especially, Could be handy in West indies 

 

But are they good enough for India?

 

 

Have seen it in the past with Unadkut's, Harshal's & Bhuvi's.

 

They all fall flat on the bigger arena...yorkers turns into full tosses which the international batters will easily smoke it out of the boundary.

 

It's tough to ignore, and at it times it feels they have finally turned the clock. But history says, they will fail again and all their experience will be of no use. If they were really good, they would have done it lot earlier instead of performing in their mid 30's.

Mohit should not be in consideration .  His accuracy will be useful on slow pitches but Caribbean pitches can be highways too.

 

Khaleel, in the past, used to lose pace within 2-3 matches . And last night, there was movement under lights 

 

But it's definitely worth monitoring how he holds up as the tournament progresses

This is the quote of the day for me.

 

 

Seriously yar, every average bowler/batter suddenly becomes a T20 expert as they turn older.

 

Be it DK, Rahane, Mohit, Unadkut, Harshal, Sandeep or anyone else.

All of them did nothing when they were young and were given multiple opportunities...they all flunked games after games.

 

Now as they're on verge of retirement, they all comes back with a new gimmick in the market to survive.

I keep repeating the same thing,but this is also due to the pitches,slow pitches doesnt rush older slower batsmen's reaction and also help  older slower pacers.

Big players don't play with intensity during the the league stages. Players who have the experience and know what to do, but lack the extra ability, succeed due to this reason. 

 

Come the big inernationsl matches and tournaments, the big players just raise their games and the mediocres are shown their aukaat.

 

But the TMs and selectors keep missing this point.

Have a eerie feeling Sandeep Sharma may also make it to WT20...  Seeing lots of good PR for this guy.  Similar like Boobie bhaiya used to have.  Indians are emotional fools... They will pick this guy coz he is shareef,  unassuming wronged by system blah blah..  IPeeL legend

Which big india player missed out in wt20.Every team is made of a mix of good and ordinary players,

 

Old Matt wade hit shaheen to win aus that sf.Joginder was India's death bowler in 2007 .Likes of Kulasekara  bowled superbly in the final of 2014 after virat smashed steyn in the sf.

expect at least 2-3 trundlers given dravid: mohit, sandeep, harshal, undercutter, mukesh are all in the mix.

Again who do u drop-out and how many pacer will they carry - Bhumrah, Singh, Mukesh, Pandya, Siraj, and if  fit then Shami.

If they select Mohit / Khaleel then they should be in playing 11 start away specially Mohit. No point in carrying him just to bench at this stage.

If he makes it he plays in 11 and do not see that happening 

 

Can add Sandeep Sharma too on this list.

Simple reason being you don't expect them to perform at this age, and when suddenly have a good stint, everyone thinks they're the expert because of their experience.

It's simply over-delivering on low expectations

Sandeep, Mohit, Bhuvi - Dravid's dream combo!

Sandeep and Mohit are role-player they are doing v.v.specific role/thing for their respective side which may not work in anyother combination.

DC started using Mukesh in a v.specific role too. Bowl defensive in middle to last overs. let batter make rr dip down batters make mistake of them or the next bowler.
