King Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 There you go India has gone back to 7 batsmen and Irfan Pathan has been dropped. Not sure if that is a good move. Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Pathan dropped, Jaffer in and Kumble, Sehwag not playing Well, i knew they would go in with 7 batsmen - but dropping PATHAN ? That's a real surprise. He would have done very well in these conditions, especially if India batted first and would need to bowl under lights during the evening ! I won't be complaining if the team wins though, but i just can't fathom how they can drop one of the team's proven match-winners. Link to comment
King Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Pathan dropped, Jaffer in and Kumble, Sehwag not playing Same here. If they dropped Pathan in India I didn't mind but dropping him on a pitch that is going to bounce and not a high scoring pitch either. The average score on this pitch is 230 over the last few years. Symcox feels this pitch is a 260 runs pitch. Link to comment
Gambit Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Pathan dropped, Jaffer in and Kumble, Sehwag not playing Bhajji will be key. Hope we bat first and make atleast 250. Link to comment
King Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Pathan dropped, Jaffer in and Kumble, Sehwag not playing This pitch Gambo has not assisted the spinners and they all think there is no point playing a spinner at all. Link to comment
