India A tour of England and Scotland 2010 : Pujara to lead

[Guest Shivani]

shikhar, kulkarni, rahane, pujara, tyagi ... what talent we have! rahane and pujara are too much ignored ... :headshake:

[youngindia]

its good they are "ignored"....its the player's game that's important ...its irrational to cite scores against lesser opposition.... that does not mean they are ready to score at the highest level. these A tours can be used to improve their games over a number of years and they can finally debut in internationals in the knowledge their games has been reasonably built already. there is nothing wrong if you get a debut at 24-25. equally its pointless to throw them in when they are not ready.

[Sooda]

Rahane should have been in the last ODI squad instead of Tiwary, but in hindsight much better that he spent his time playing in Eng rather than rotting on the subs bench for the Asia Cup

absolutely, a very few Genius kind of players like SRT :hatsoff: can cope with the pressure and expectations of International cricket at a very young age....

The tri-series final is scheduled for July 8 but, if West Indies A do not qualify, they will play Lancashire on that day instead.

Triangular Series in England, 1st Match: India A v West Indies A at Northampton, Jun 28, 2010 India A faces a confident WI A in the tri series tournament today with another team being a strong England Lions squad. Team for India is as follows: CA Pujara*, WP Saha†, Bipul Sharma, S Dhawan, C Ganapathy, Iqbal Abdulla, KM Jadhav, Jaskaran Singh, DS Kulkarni, A Mukund, MK Pandey, AM Rahane, MK Tiwary, S Tyagi, JD Unadkat Team for WI A is : DS Smith*, DE Bernard, LS Baker, KC Brathwaite, DM Bravo, KA Edwards, ADS Fletcher†, AB Fudadin, I Khan, OJ Phillips, AD Russell, KA Stoute, GC Tonge, CAK Walton† WI A won its both List A match against Ireland while India could only tie the series 1-1 against Scotland. I think India's playing should be Rahane Mukund Pujara Tiwari Pandey Saha Abdullah Jaskaran Kulkarni Tyagi Unadkat Dhawan has been a near failure in this tour so far apart from that opening match against a third string Yorkshire team. But then, Pandey has been a failure too. Still in this match I want Pandey to be given a chance. I don't have much idea what WI A XI would look like, but I hope India A plays with full intensity to win this match as the competition would only get tougher from here on.

I would rather want to see Ganpathy play in place of Jaskaran Singh. If he's being looked at an allrounder, why not give him the proper opportunities.

[Sachinism]

WI off to a flyer 14 off the 1st over. 3 boudaries conceded by Tyagi

[Serani]

Looks like a good limited overs team with Devon Smith, Fletcher, Lil Bravo and Russell.

[Serani]

LASSSSSSHHHHHH DEMMMMMM. Should be licks for India today.

[Sachinism]

40/0 in 4

[saneindian]

Looks like Mithun is in Eng and has joined the squad. Good for him. An attack of Unadkat, Mithun and Tyagi looks good, but unfortunately all getting clobbered. WI 47/0 in 5 overs.

[Serani]

I bet Fletcher is front foot bullying everything like he usually does.

[Serani]

100 up after 15 overs.

[msb1991]

This is not looking good for India A, at all!

[Ahmed]

135/0 after 21 overs against the " A rock stars" is a good start by windies.

[Serani]

Interesting to see how flat the track is, Northants is usually really green.

[saneindian]

WI A looking at 350+ here.

[saneindian]

135/0 after 21 overs against the " A rock stars" is a good start by windies.

Abe dhakkan apni team ki halat dekh. Against the 2nd XI of Kent, the top order has been wiped out for nothing.

[msb1991]

I do wonder where Kulkarni, he has been the pick of the bowlers, second perhaps to Unadkat only, on this tour.
