cowboysfan Posted April 11, 2024 Posted April 11, 2024 first off a lot of guys are injured like Kuldeep.I would not pick either Kohli or Rohit but agarkar wont have the balls to drop them.
cricketfan28 Posted April 11, 2024 Posted April 11, 2024 One of sharma or kohli instead of both is better, someone should sacrifice

zen Posted April 12, 2024 Posted April 12, 2024 (edited) “We have gone with tried (or tired) and tested players” - Agarkar Rohit KL Kohli SKY DK Pandya Jadeja Thakur Bumrah Siraj Chahal S Iyer Ashwin Arshdeep Axar Agarkar - “The 11 has batting depth till #8, Chahal was unlucky to not get to play in 2022 but will get opportunities in WI, DK once again shone at Wankhede and we could use his experience in the 11, KL keeps maturing every year and will also serve as the backup WK, Kohli has been consistent in the IPL, Rohit has improved his SR, Bumrah & Siraj can bowl at any stage of the game, SKY looks at his best, and Hardik, Jadeja, & Thakur can chip in any department. There is no offie in the 11 but Ashwin will be in squad should the team need him. Other back ups include S Iyer, Axar, and Arshdeep. This is the best possible squad that we could have picked and it covers all bases.” Edited April 12, 2024 by zen Chaos and Lord 1 1

Jaiswal is not in form and if Dhoni says that Rahsne is in good nick then he maybe picked. His experience and ability to handle genuine pace will work in his favour. Mayank's name will be discussed for 15 minutes and it will be decided that he needs more experience and has to wait for his turn to come. If Avesh can bowl slower than Mukesh in this IPL then his name will be considered seriously. In the WI, we would "need" slow pacers so that the batters don't have any pace to work with. DK can replace Samson as backup keeper if he continues to perform this way. His vast experience can be a huge boost to this team's chances. This team is so good on paper, with stellar names and vast experience, that no one can be and should be blamed when they lose. Even a first round exit should not be questioned because it is not " possible " to leave out any of these experienced players or slow pacers. Edited April 12, 2024 by express bowling Vijy and AKane 2
AuxiliA Posted April 12, 2024 Posted April 12, 2024 T20 being a lottery, we actually have more chance winning this WC than what we would have in the next ODI WC in SA. Same with playing the WTC F vs an inform SENA team in England.

He atleast has IPL win experience as leader. Virat, despite brilliant individual performance and good team, has failed at critical junctures with nothing to show as leader or senior member.

deepdynamo Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Even with Rohit and Kohli, a winning team can still be build. They have to just make sure 1) No KL. This is cruicial because Kohli and KL batting together will suck all the momentum. ( like it happened on Nov 19- in post match Cummins mentioned that they deliberately wanted KL and Kohli to bat maximum overs) 2) Axar / Jadeja on No. 8. Either of the two can come at No. 8 and play as bowling allrounder. 3) Play seven batters two of whom can cover 4 overs. Jaiswal Rohit Kohli Sky Pant Dube Pandya Axar/ Jadeja Kuldeep Bumrah Arshdeep Reserves Abishekh/Parag Rinku Bishnoi Mayank - Above team has 4 left-hander and 4 right-hander in top 8. - 4 genuine bowling options + Pandya + Dube ( if needed) - options to be flexible even in reserves for e.g parag can come in for Dube in or Mayank for Arshdeep
