Lol at Gill. 

 

And why would we still need Kuldeep when you already have Varun C , Bishnoi and Axar. Kuldeep is reaching Chahal level of uselessness in this format and almost cost us the 2024 final. Please let him stick to longer formats especially Tests now that Ashwin is gone. 

 

My team - 

 

Abhishek 

Samson (wk)

Jaiswal

SKY (C)

Tilak 

Pandya

Rinku

Axar

Varun C

Bumrah 

Arshdeep 

 

 

Jaiswal is good enough to adopt to no.3 and it'd be unfair to just drop Abhishek for him. Let both play.

Samson nailing the WK/opening spot has opened up so many doors for us in the batting department. One of the very few solid moves by GG in his coaching tenure so far.

But its keeping Jaiswal out. We need Samson to play at 3/4

[deepdynamo]

Difficult to nail XI one year before the next T20 world cup. But it is certain that the core has already been finalized.

Bat-Jaiswal, Abishek, Samson, Tilak, Sky, Rinku, Pant
AR- Pandya, Nitish, Parag, Axar, Dube, Ramandeep
Spin- Varun, Bishnoi, Kuldeep
Fast- Bumrah, Arshdeep, Mayank, Rana

LOL at people not including Abhishek.

 

He is hitting 145 k+deliveries for fun. 

 

Raining 6s snd 4s. 

 

Ideal T20 opener.

Jaiswal can play at 3. SKY and Tilak can drop down one place each. YJ is too good a player not to play.

Ideally we need someone who can bat in MO. That means both Jaiswal and Abhishek can open.

we should note that he is in a different league of left handers..he is not the one who just hoicks ball across the leg side in the nam eof agressive batting..he has got fluent off side game..thats why he is able to hit 145ks for fun..the faster you ball..faster it will go for six on off side..Wood and Archer will agree..

[Need4Speed]

The way Dube played Rashid..I think..keeping in mind t20 wcup is in India..so we will see some spinners in action..Dube has an edge to play in xi..

 

Also, I would like to accomodate..Jswal in opening with Abhishek..its tough but Samson need to step up his free flowing game at #7 or #6 

[cowboysfan]

so Ishan kishan is done in international cricket? I am not a fan but I feel he was unfairly treated just because he asked for time off.

[cricketfan28]

Should not expect consistency from A Sharma. On his day he can win it all by himself.
