Indian T20 team is unstoppable

The flexibility of this new gen T20 is so pleasing to eye.

 

Don't want Gill and Pant to be back as 'automatic selection' and ruin the balance and intent.
Gill was stat padding in Zimbabwe with a selfish inning like 65(45) while Pant is a total misfit in T20.

Both can be a solid backup to the first T20 XI and should concentrate on the other two format.

Batting and spin are sorted. Now if they could get a fit Mayank and in form Umran into this team then it would look great. 

Arshdeep and Bumrah would take 2 spots in WT20 tourneys. Mayank would be a good 3rd pacer

I ws thinking about that too..will be awesome if these 3 can play together based on fitness..however..4th spot wil go to spinner..like Bishnoi,Varun C,Kuldeep

5th and 6th bowling options will be from Pandya..Axar..NKR..Parag..Abhishek Sharma..


So our batting will stop at 7.. thats a problem..

Hence we will have to promote someone from 5/6th bowling option as 4th..

 

we will have lesser penetration in that case..

 

with this bowling we can have most penetration but will lose a batting option..tough call..

 

Boom

Arshdeep

Mayank

Mystery Spinner

Pandya and co..

 

if we have swinging conditions for first few overs..Arshdeep can be deadly at top..then I am fine with one less batter..

none of our spinners are major wicket takers (maybe with the exception of revamped Varun C or kuldeep), so we may as well play a spin AR such as sundar, Axar, which will add to batting depth

Only if he finds the pace and form when he broke through in IPL. He was bowling mid 150s. The last we saw him he was struggling to touch 140s.

agreed. if not him, we should go with someone who can hit 150. need some variety in t20s. boom and arshdeep are different from each other, and 3rd pacer should ideally be outright express

Nope, we should not compromise on our batting depth and we've to have depth till 8. Bumrah, Arshdeep and Varun C should be the 3 main bowlers. Others should be Pandya, Nitish Reddy, Axar, Parag, Rinku and maybe Abhishek. These should be good enough to give you 8 overs amongst themselves. No need to go back to too many specialist batters or bowlers.

I would agree with this philosophy, but would pick 3 outright wicket taking pacers and have spin bowling AR. but our templates are pretty similar.

Or the 3rd specialist pacer is not needed. I don't want to compromise on batting depth by adding specialists. In shorter formats batting depth and multi-dimensional players wins you tourneys. I don't want to go back to Kohli or RCB days with 5 specialist bowlers and tail starting at 6 or 7.

I am not saying we should have 4 specialist bowlers. Have 3 specialist bowlers (all pacers) + ARs for spin/pace. Specialist spinner is useful only when T20 takes place in Asia maybe
