Does India have the spin attack for 15th to do the job for the team?


Recommended Posts

For India, the burning question remains, does our spin department have the teeth to dismantle the opposition on a surface that traditionally rewards guile?

Recent struggles in the ODI series against New Zealand, where spinners were swept off their lengths, have raised some red flags. In the shortest format, there’s no room for such lapses

What do you think of it?

Need not to say pacers too will have their role on that sticky surface by consistently going with change of pace,cutters,slower bouncers etc,we often tend to bowl filth upfront in recent times in pressure games

Who the fukk cares...

 

15th Feb is effectively a dead rubber game...

 

I will worry more about our bowling in dew in the latter stages of the tournament against England, SAF, Aus etc

That is how a sane person looks at the situation. You are dealing with a nation which after losing 3 games was celebrating Naqvi stealing trophy and an opener hitting Bumrah for 6. Can't lose to these jokers.

Dimissing teams is not the focus in this format. As long as bowlers know how to build pressure and the fielders catch well, the wickets will take care of themselves.

The batting has to stand up particularly when faced with the pakistani spinners who can be slightly unusual. Dube and the left handers have to take them to the cleaners, The match is inconsequential and the format is a lottery but India would have to play badly to lose.

No.

 

Varun, Kuldeep, Axar are any better than any combination of three. What Pak has is FIVE goodish spinners.

 

Difference will be batting vs spin which is where India is superior.

One Kuldeep is enough, guy keeps their batsmen in his back pocket. In fact this match may help him get some form/confidence back. 

 

Two Indian players (after their abbu, Kohli) who the Pooks have no answer to.

Pandya/Kohli have had a few bad matches and lsot a few games.

 

Kuldeep is at ZERO bad performances and ZERO losses.

Not easy to bat against a chucker, first time saw Tariq and guy does chuck every now and then. It took us a few games to get used to Chuckmal and Chuckfeez also.

Arshdeep also did well vs them.

@Gollum Replying here because match thread has been archived .

 

I don't think that Tariq guy is chucking. He bowls with a bent arm but there isn't a whole lot of jerking and straightening. He maintains that bend throughout.

 

I think the pause is the issue.

Very superior ? Have they bowled on Pattas ? Shadab,Nawaz,Abrar are not vastly superior and that vatta guy is just a weird bowler. Ind needs to be careful about him. Thats it. We don't need 190 against them.  170 is enough
