With Axar at 9, we bat super deep.

 

We knew before the tourney that Sharma was a high standard deviation batter. From batting POV, as long as he doesn't waste balls, he can be carried.

 

My issue is more with his fielding. This guy is usually an electric fielder but dropped two easy catches yesterday. This can be truly damaging in knockouts.

Yea.. His fielding has to be elite or he should be able to bowl a few safe overs like Will Jacks. So his presence is hurting in multiple ways. But.. my hope is he still has his game against pace. Once you put him in a situation where he gets to face more pace balls we can get the best out of him. Only way we can do that is play spin bashers around him. Promote Axar

Jofra is in Sanju's head, so Abhi must come to the party on Thursday.

Axar bats at 8. 9-11 are duds Arshdeep, Bumrah, Chakri/KD.

Sanju admittedly is very unselfish. He could easily have statpadded which he didn't do.  But Abhishek has insane record against Archer. This is  a way that Abhishek can find his touch back.
