JUSTICE FOR JAISWAL

[Chakdephatte]

What's the fuss. It's just a useless Asia Cup. 

 

If anything, his chances of making it to the T20 world cup would've dropped after playing on these pitches. He is very likely to make a comeback till then.

Har khiladi ko har format kyun khilana hai. Hamari T20 team settled thi. Gill ko jabardasti ghusa diya. We have so many players. All need to play creating different teams for different formats.

Jaiswal 36 average, 160+ SR. Travis Head like numbers, in fact better.

 

Iyer most improved player last one year, clutch, leadership qualities, always an asset in SC conditions, against spin etc. But can't even find a place in the reserve list?

Iyer suited to ODIs only. Not every player need to play every format. Gill selection in T20 is a poor thought process.

[Gollum]

Not investing in PR will screw Jaiswal in the long run. Even his SM posts are his own, raw and unfiltered, no editing, brand placement or PR touch. Won't work in 2025.

On the back of his IPL form and kind of hitting ability he has shown, Iyer deserves a shot at T20is 

 

But it would need to be if say Tilak or Sky were injured 

 

Gill I agree should not be in the squad

And here we have posters questioning his work ethic.

If he adapts to T20s, his test game will suffer. Almost impossible to be good in all 3 formats these days.

T20s are played in a certain way today that you will have to play it like specialist

It's a specialists job,if you impose it on you ,very little chance that you will succeed in the most purist form of cricket unless the pitches are like India Eng had in first 2 tests in Eng

I think ODIs impact players the most.

 

It's relatively feasible to switch from T20 to tests. Attacking game works in test also.

 

ODIs are worst where you have to just dab at each ball and try to take singles.

Its not selection issue that Gill makes into the t20i side as VC but it a directional issue. 

It wont be like gill does not suite t20i we need to bring another opener or a #3 batter. Its they are selecting some1 not suited for the format as VC.

 

Its v.similar issue ind had to rohit/dhawan/kolhi --all 3 played the same kind of slow approach cricket and when selectors relaised Ind already was legging behind the top teams so they brought in KL whose game was already changed to similar to rohit/kolhi and then they realized both  kolhi and rohit are not so good  vs LA spin/pace plus leg spin and they have dropped the only Left handed batter from top 3 who could have tackled the LA and leg spinners 

 

Which is a bad decision itself  and as Ind does not have a wk who can walk into the 11 just upon their batting --they are making 2 bad decisions and 2 batters not suited for the format will be in the team.

 

Other teams are catching up with big hitting, Aus is already upto it with all the heavy hitter no accumulator as such

 

This is there SRs in last 1 year

 

• Tim David → 192.07 | Century (102*)

• Travis Head → 178+ | Four 50s (best 80), SR 194.39 since T20 WC 2024

• Glenn Maxwell → 171.68 | Century (120*) + one 50

• Josh Inglis → 170.48 | Century (102) + two 50s

• Marcus Stoinis → 156.39 | Three 50s (best 67*)

• Cameron Green → 151+ | Four 50s (best 62*)

• Mitchell Marsh → 140.83 | Best 72*

• Mitchell Owen → 192+ | One 50

Odis are the easiest format for batters right now, easy pace and bounce pitches. Can take time build innings at your own pace -- pick and chose the kind of bowler they want to target.

 

Other team are trying to bring fast scoring batters to test set-up, but Ind is doing the opposite they are bringing the slow scoring players in t20is. Its completely different ideology.

So other team are not only trying to make tests more exiting but also trying to keep the players interested such that they do not completely pivot towards t20 cricket for monetary gains and only players without t20 skills take up test as the last option
