Is agarkar led committee on of the worst selection committee in Indian history

[Malcolm Merlyn]

For me the worst selection committee committee in Indian history was led by msk prasad, a joke of a committee.

 

second place goes to the present committee.

 

bits a pieces like axar patel going to England as if uk pitches were square turners.

 

continued selection of below standard players like Prasidh harshit and tilak

 

No logic non selection of 90 mph bowlers 

[Malcolm Merlyn]

This reeks of the ofnot selecting mayank Agarwal and playing  Murli vijay

[putrevus]

Did he get an extension too. This bozo along with head coach have to be kicked out before they cause more damage.

[zen]

Bringing in Prabhsimran (backup keeper) in place of Samson, who has legendary big tournament performances, says it all. 
 

The team is almost unwatchable now apart from Abhishek and Suryavanshi. Samson gave that X factor.
 

You don’t need everyone to contribute in every game but when you get going, you should have the ability to win the game and maybe even a tournament - something Samson has, and he is not even past his best yet! 

[The Realist]

Zero idea of how to build fir the future.

 

Should be trying out new younger players rather than recycling same old tired failures.

 

 

[Adamant]

Too much panic!

 

This team will do well in t20. Some hiccups are part of the journey.

[putrevus]

Nobody cares about losing two series which have no meaning but the way the players have been treated is the problem.

 

Agarkar and GG have become more important in scheme of things than captain and players.They seem to have more say on what happens than captain.

Who bring the panic iyer bring it captain mindset can change team mindset

Losing one or two series is fine... Eng are full strength at their home.

They nearly beat us even in WT20 and a miraculous fielding effort which is as rare as Hailey's comet saved us that day.

 

There are concerns but selectors are trying to find solutions that's why all high pace bowlers will be seen in Zimbabwe.

Losing a couple of series is acceptable but the concern is the way they lost. The way Iyer is handling bowlers and his negative body language is a huge worry. This wont stop at two series its likely to continue

Iyer will eventually go away...  I think even Sanju will be back after what GG said post match.

Team needs refinement for SENA conditions.

Atp no team can beat England in Eng  a series with Archer Brook Rashid in it.

Assuming Sanju is not phased out by this TM

[putrevus]

And now this idiot Gambhir has come out and gave this statement, is this guy for real.

 

 

The clarity that should have been given to Sanju Samson, he has got from me," Gambhir said after the third T20I at Trent Bridge. "And that conversation is between a head coach and a player. That contents of the conversation we will obviously not tell you about.

 

"As far as clarity goes, we are absolutely clear that Sanju… what he had done for India during the World Cup has been phenomenal, and sometimes you just have to look at the form as well of a certain player. And there is no hard and fast rule that he cannot make a comeback in this series.

 

 

Three matches and you are out. This is the guy  in Samson who played three of the greatest t20 knocks by any Indian in t20 history.

 

This moron Gambhir got to play multiple world t20s based on one knock where bowlers won the match.

 

This is the same moron who was salty for getting dropped from Indian side.

[govinda]

Atleast gambhir & agarkar have given chance to gurnoor and have hope that they will give chances to ashok,tyagi and mayank. Dravid and chetan sharma only gave chances to gutkesh, gadash etc

Ireland series was perfect to try young players.

 

Prasidh, Sundar, Arshdeep, Dubey, Axar, Tilak should not have played the Ireland series 

[vishalvirsingh]

they are doing job well.

 

pitches in india are still PATTA which are batting friendly and thats the root cause...batsmen fail as soon as the new ball moves

You gotta be smart about it. See off first 4  overs and go after bowling. White ball doesn't moave after 4 or 5 overs.

[putrevus]

If batsman find these pitches as challenging then they don’t deserve to play in international cricket.

[Vk1]

they may pick samson again injuring someone for zim tour

[Vk1]

Gambhir's favorites Sundar and Varun will mysteriously get injured once their place in team becomes highly questionable. Sundar will not play next game and will get drafted back for next series
