Bat also twists in his hand much like it is for Jadeja. At this point I say invest in Parag as a main stream spinner. Keep Sundar for Tests,we need him there now with Ash gone. Playing all formats doesn't work for most tapandrun and nevada 2 Link to comment
Chamsi Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 @deepdynamo Gill is VC for the WC. That is a very big position to have and says a lot about the future. Only if they chose to split T20, then Axar will become captain. Anyway, Jurel, Sundar, and NKR are already in the T20 setup. Jaiswal will come in, and Gill if he is captain. Eventually, Bumrah, and a few IPL up-comers like Arshad Khan and Umran Malik will be selected. There will be no space for century merchants like Tilak, Abhishek, and Sanju, and mystery spinners like Varun and Bishnoi in the T20 setup. Link to comment

Sundar from his u-17-19 knw he can and will make it to Ind side but never worked on his batting do not think his batting has improved or he has even added 1 new shot if sundar becomes a proper batter and then can roll his arm over he could be in a t20 set-up but knowing Ind selection and thinking he will be in fringes and may be able to make it to icc events. look around how many t20 set-ups be it intnl or league or even domestics have a specialist off-spinner. Phillips (nz) was a wkt-keeper and top fielder and a hitter is nz's off-spinner, markran who hardly spins is SA off-spinning option, maxwell/short for aus, agha for pak, livingstone and ali for eng all are batters who can bowl bit of off-spin. Would say TM and selectors should push rinku and sky to bowl off-spin more often else its already looking like rinku will lose his place and non-scoring of sky is being more and more highlighted now as he is the captain and already has tag of not able to get runs aginst good bowling sides or in big matches if ind want they should try to find some legspinner who can hit some 4/6 batting 7/8/9. UP has vipraj (nt sure of exact name) but he played some good innings this season. its upto Sundar..if he wants to be ahead in the queue he will have to develop some mystery in bowling..else just be happy with ipl..else Riyan Parag can step up too..

Are you following Arshad and Umran a lot..did they develop something extra recently..that they will be in the team? Link to comment

There is no allrounder like Arshad Khan, and fast bowler as fast Umran in India. Both are strongly-built, which is important for longevity and fielding cushion. Arshad bowled high 130s and hit two cameos against DC. Edited February 6 by Chamsi tapandrun 1 Link to comment

Umran..I have read that he worked really hard on his bowling..its unfortunate he got dengue and followed by injuries..so would like to see how he comes back now.. However,Arshad is already 27 and still has lot to do to come even in larger pool of hopefuls.. Link to comment
