New guy Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 9 minutes ago, Lord said: Axar can come in as 3rd spinner/no. 7 in India for sure. I forgot Jurel. So he comes in for Vihari/Easwaran. Basically we need a Pujara type tuk tuk bat who can play till the ball is old. Gill is such a misfit at 3. Harshit was removed after 1 bad game. Did well in Perth. Don't forget sarfraz.

The Hound Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Jaiswal Ruturaj Sai KLR / Sarfaraz Pant (wk) Jurel (wk) / Tilak NKR/ Axar (depending on conditions) Sundar Bumrah Siraj Kuldeep / Another pacer I don't think Musheer is ready yet, maybe 3 years from now Drop Gill until he piles on runs In red ball games Edited January 5 by The Hound Link to comment
Lord Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 15 minutes ago, New guy said: Don't forget sarfraz. Sarfaraz seems a FTB. Struggled with both swing and spin so far. But yeah good backup Link to comment
ungboysj Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 First of all make sure this is the set up 5 pure batsman no allrounder or wk bat **** just pure batter all their life Pant Pure batter /batting all rounder key is batting all rounder who should be good enough to average 40+ and could bowl decent if no such player is available go with a pure batter 4 best bowler 1 of which should be pure spinner no all rounder bullshit So this is my proposed team JAISWAL RAHUL RITURAJ/SAI GILL TILAK VERMA/SARFARAJ PANT REDDY/PANDYA KULDEEP/CHAKRABORTY/ANY WRIST SPINNER KRISHNA KULDEEP SEN/SIRAJ BUMRAH this team will won a lot more than loose Link to comment

Sooda Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) 1 hour ago, Lord said: Too much dead wood to clear. Only Pant,Jaiswal and Bumrah seem certainty. What'd be your team for Eng tour onwards Mine Jaiswal Sai Vihari/Easwaran (temporary) Musheer Khan Sundar Pant (c)(wk) NKR Akash/Kuldeep Bumrah Harshit Prasidh/Siraj Musheer is promising but needs a lot more experience on A tours. Easwaran unfortunately struggled Vs Aus A, we can't invest in home bullies England series: KL Jaiswal Sai Gill Jurel NKR Pant M Suthar Akash Bumrah Siraj Mukesh Kumar Arshdeep Singh (?) Harshit Kuldeep Devdutt Sarfaraz Edited January 5 by Sooda Number 1 Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 48 minutes ago, New guy said: Lol you deliberatley named him seperately, come on dude its obvious. He should be the first name in batsmen and not seperate. I named him separately because he's a wicketkeeper batsman not for any other reason. You're overthinking it. Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1 hour ago, Lord said: Sundar, NKR are both essentially batsmen who also bowl a bit. I don't see many specialist bat options in FC anyway They are not batters who can bat against the new/semi new ball. Only good in the lower order. If we can't find one more batsman , we should give up the format. Also, there are the kikes of Sai and Pradosh Ranjan Paul. Link to comment
mani sha Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Bowling core - rana siraj reddy led by bumrah umran and Delhi express need to be groomed to be phhast bowlers who get tail out spin core kuldeep , axar , sundar , Kotian batting core yashashwi reddy Gaikwad rinku singh pant Jurel S khan Sharma abhishek Ishan kishan get kohli , jadeja , rohit out. End of our golden run. Beginning of something better . Link to comment

express bowling Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) For tests in England in 2025 .... 1. Jaiswal 2. Rahul / Sai 3. Jurel 4. Gill / Sarfraz 5. Pant 6. NKR / Pradosh Paul 7. Washington / Axar 8. Harshit 9. Prasidh / Mayank / Sen 10. Bumrah 11. Siraj / Arshdeep Singh .... Want to play 4 proper pacers after removing deadwoods Ro-Ko and picking 7 in-form batters. This will reduce Bumrah's workload. .... 2 pacers + NKR who will swing the ball. Bumrah and Siraj with Arshdeep Singh as backup. .... 2 tall pacers who will bounce the ball at pace if pitch flattens in the 2nd innings. Harshit and Prasidh. It would be nice when we get Mayank Yadav ready. .... Washington is my spinner all-rounder with Axar as backup. .... Sai Sudarshan is backup opener. .... Sarfraz and Pradosh Paul are backup MO batters. Edited January 5 by express bowling Link to comment

singhvivek141 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Next Assignment is in England, our historical nemesis. Yashasvi Jaiswal Abhimanyu Easwaran Dhruv Jurel Sai Sudharshan/Gill Pant (wk) Nitish Kumar Reddy/Raj Bawa (one allrounder who can bowl pace) Sundar/Axar/Sindhu (one allrounder who can bowl spin) Harshit Rana/ Gurnoor Brar (one tall hit the deck pacer who can also bat) Akashdeep/Vaibhav (one swing bowler) Bumrah Siraj/Arshdeep (second swing bowler) Edited January 5 by singhvivek141 Link to comment
deathmonger Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Need pace bench pus pace bowling allrounders. Don't think can win against Eng. Might sneak a win or two in matches but series doesn't look like. Carse/Atkinson are decent bowlers but they extend the tail as well. Aim should be to develop Reddy's bowling further and maybe fast track Bawa? 2028-29 and 2032-33 season should be targeted. 28-29 specifically as Bumrah will still be there in his last good years. Jaiswal will be 26, Reddy 26, Sundar 30, Pant 31 Link to comment
express bowling Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 India needs 4 proper pacers in SENA. Apart from Australia. no other team in thd World has pacers with the fitness or stamina to bowl well with 3 pace options. singhvivek141 1 Link to comment

Develop Reddy/Bawa so they can be decent 5th bowler. No need to play the spin bowling all rounder on some pitches. Other pitches can remove one of the swing bowlers. Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 36 minutes ago, Lord said: KL and Gill have had their chances Gill is youn. Needs to go back to domestic, one year away from international cricket will do him good. KL no chance of improvement. We need to decide if we can live with inconsistent performance.

Jaiswal will be 26, Reddy 26, Sundar 30, Pant 31 Only problem with Bawa is we will become left handed dominant team jaiswal, Sai, Bawa, pant, Washy/Axar all are leftie. So 5 out of 7 are left handed.
