Mariyam Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 @maniac urf @Global.Baba Why do your thread titles contain ellipsisims which are, at least to me, not obvious at all? There can be only one reason you do this.......... maniac 1

Then Agarkar could not do anything. Not sure about Mayank but how about Kela, If kela is in the squad and in playing XI …. Can we bash Draavid then.

Only when Draavid sir came he just not become regular in playing xi he also promoted to so called leadership group. express bowling, maniac and Suhaan 3

Kela was always opening in T20 and in MO in ODIs
rkt.india Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 I advise BCCI to pull Mayank out of IPL immediately. Compensate him for IPL money he will lose just to keep him away from injuries till T20 WC. Suhaan and vishalvirsingh 1 1

Before Dravid when kela was actually a good player he was always an alternate opener in odi in place of Dhawan even in 19 wc he became regular only when Dhwan got injured till that point his poistion was not fixed. In t20 also he was not a regular opener . People were annoyed when Shastri and kohli used go drop him. Once Dravid became coach he started playing regularly and also got batting positions as per his wish. maniac, Mosher and express bowling 3

So far PBKS and RCB batting line ups don't have that kind of firepower. Want to see him against KKR SRH and especially MI in Wankhede. Boy needs to be battle hardened before T20 WC. Though I do wish BCCI needs to take regular update on his workload. He should himself be mindful of diving in the Outfield or anything. Bowling 8 overs in a week is not much of a issue.

Gets bounce and is a little different from the darting SLA's . But this all depends on Pandu's form with bat and ball and his general fitness . If he can be a genuine 3rd seamer (at his best , his bowling is gold ) , we can go with this approach But if he is not fit and in form, that combination is a huge problem because we don't have another seam allrounder whose ceiling is anywhere close to Pandya. Then we will have to drop Brar and play the extra seamer . So then , they will have to play a spin allrounder at 7. Personally , I want India to be bold and drop Kohli along with Pandya and somehow try to fit both Abhishek and Riyan , our best young T20 batters (who can also bowl ), but nobody has the cajones to do that Lone Wolf 1

There is no point in taking a bits and pieces players like Jadeja or Axar. MY strategy will be to open the bowling with Pandya and Bumrah... And use Brar for a over as well in first six. Final PP over to Mayank. Use Mayank and Kuldeep in Middle phase. Kill the game right there. If it doesn't... I have 3 Bumrah overs in the end to do damage control. Brar/Pandya overs can be interchanged depending upon conditions and form. Brar can slog as well.. PBKS bats him ahead of Rabada even Nikhil_cric 1
