I just don't want Kishan , Samson to curb their natural game just because there are losers in middle order.

That why iyer inclusion is bad for team

Losing a T20 match due to over-confidence is not the same as losing due to 'players lacking the skill set for the desired format'.    The zim defeat was a great team taking things lightly.  Whereas this team is full of players who are TTFs in T20 format. Basically, misfits.   Iyer, Sunder, Prasidh hv worst intl T20 stats.  

Its ok, its the first game in a new WC cycle under a new captain. If it doesnt work out we'll make changes, there's a lot of until then

Hope these t20s between ar used properly to get a perfect combination for Aus 28,

Even if they haveto kick out Iyer so be it

,Iyer,Sundar,Prasidh are suicidal inclusions if taken in all seriousness and if they are looking for few combinations,it can be understood 

But I'm quite certain likes of Iyer, Sundar and Prasidh should never feature together

Don't want to see any of them in any side

Such a misfit for this format! Sundar has run out of places to hide! Neither a full quota bowler nor a quality batsman. 

Till the end of last year, many ICFers were seen blaming the TM and BCCI selectors for ignoring 'once in a generation AR' like Sundar.

Also there is a thing called luck. Sky had that luck factor. Think of his catch in 2024 w cup final. One inch we would have lost it. Think the SL t20 series. 4 runs 6 balls Rinku singh bowls india to a tie and india win in super over. 2026 asia cup final..we had no business scoring 63 in 36 balls on that slow wicket. 2026 w cup against usa we should not have even crossed 130 and sky plays that innings and all his tumbling shots comes off.. dude is a 6 time ipl winner.. iyer has no luck on his side..

He is not whiteball material,but Gambhir sees an all format GOAT AR in him

Luck, Toss, Unfavourable weather etc are not something that need to be associated with a champ team.  That is exactly what Pakpassion posters keep putting up as an excuse most often about their team.

The team core philosophy of high risk hig reward should not change. That is how we won 85% of the amtches under SKY. We lost that when we had Gill briefly. Once we got rid of him we reverted back to that. It is missing from this set up. Only top 3  take risks. Samson, ABhishek, Kishan. Others apart from Dube don't embrace that. Tilak has regressed somewhat. He has become a consolidator.

In cricket it is always better have lucky captain than a good one.Iyer is not even good captain.

Tilak will be even more circumspect after tasting vice captaincy

Message should be clear

Let the Irish be happy for a day.  Who cares? We are the champions after all.
Need to learn lessons obviously, but cool with losing a bilateral.

Hope they don't ship bumrah to save us from humiliation lol

Result of this match is not important.Moving forward how to fit Iyer is the problem.

 

Once Vaibhav is comes into playing XI , Iyer will bat at number 5. The guy who goes out might not be playing for India in near future unless there are injuries.

 

 

All top 6 will be spending sleepless nights.

In a real world scenario, the player whose place in the side is the 'most secure' gets appointed as captain.   But with Ind, it is the exact opposite.

Sundar is not competing for batting spot for Vaibhav.

Sundar bowled one over. Hes playing as a batsman batting above Dube and Axar
