Asia Cup Bumrah strategy

[Sooda]

I don't like 

 

a) him not taking the first over and

 

b) front loading with three overs

 

He's our no 1 bowler. More likely to take a wicket in the first over than an AR in Hardik. That changes the opposition PP

 

And we need an extra over from him at death. It means Varun bowls one more in PP but I think he can fine. Hardik isn't good enough at the death

Aren't they playing with just one specialist pacer and three specialist bowlers?

Bumrah should Bowler 1st three overs of t20 match

Sky not using him correctly 

[Lord]

Needs to bowl 2 at death. Also we need another pacer to complement him. Can drop Kuldeep

Not sure if Bumrah is even needed here. Total liability. He is just putting the ball there. Why did he even bother to play this meaningless crap.

Yes 

 

Bumrah, Varun, Kuldeep 

 

Hardik taking new ball including first over

Tough one, feels harsh on Kuldeep but may be the right path
