Gill as captain: sochna bhi mat

[maniac]

Extremely average leadership material.

He is not street smart . Rinku singh in short formats - I would like to see him captain.  

Other candidate is pant . Takes to the opposition .

God no.

 

He has done enough school boy mistakes for DC. He too is dumb with his on field strategy.

 

Bumrah is much better than the above two, I am ready to put my bet on Jaiswal, he is way more street smart than Gill & Pant.

Bumrah is not an option since he is certain to miss games over the medium/long term due to his workload and fitness issues

We won the WT20 this time.  It might hv masked many of our loopholes.

One of them is : How shockingly poor pant has been with the bat throughout the tournament.   He fluked 40 odd runs against Pak in which there were 2 dropped catches and 1 catch which landed between 2 fielders.  Played Okayish knock of 20 and 25 against BD & Afghan.   But that's all.   He failed against every top team (Aus, Eng, SA) when we needed him to score badly.

Test monster = pant

Odi he is good but can improve

Has been poor in t20

 

But I would still persist with him. Make him open instead

We are trying to manufacture a Kohli out of him just like the Paxtanis did with Barbie Azam. Both are not leadership material and have meek timid body languages. And the less we talk about the batting acumen the better.

 

Looks like it will likely be Shreyas or Pandya for the long term in white ball cricket and Kela for Tests.

They need to find someone who is marketable for their project. 

 

1) has to either have looks or charm via talking

2) good physique for getting adds promoting fitness brands etc

3) has to be flashy/dress well etc.

4) needs to stat pad. So the player can claim to be the best of his generational despite being nothing but a stat ladder in reality. 

5) has to lead from the front. As captain he has to be the bets player in the team.

Better to focus on his batting for now .. have to incorporate power game, both odi and t20 will need that on pattas
