SLICKR392 Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Will he get 30? Even against Afghanistan he just managed to get 8 runs of 10 balls Just cuz of single knock? He can win us a match single handedly when he is on song.
veer Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 should be veeru but won't happen cuz we are going back to 4 bowler strategy..
Crookbond Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Seems so. But if we are up against Eng or Aus on a dust bowls..he wouldn't cost us much. I don't think we will get a rank turner. If we do, he may drop Sehwag for Chawla else everything in order.
Crookbond Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Bangladesh, Zimbabwe scared of us - Trent Johnston http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc-world-twenty20-2012/content/current/story/583693.html Why don't Bangladesh and Zimbabwe want to play us?" he asked. "I know why, because they're scared that we'll beat them and that we'll go above them in the rankings. I know that for a fact. "And the other guys simply can't play us because they've got programmes left, right and centre and IPL, BPL and Big Bash, blah, blah, blah. So I can understand that the big boys play too much cricket and that they ask how they can squeeze a series in with Ireland. But something has got to be done, because we don't want to be at this 'minnow' level as well, which is what the commentators call us. "We're associate cricketers and we're aware of that, we're not 'minnows'. I'm sick of hearing 'minnow' on the TV. It's disrespectful to the guys that are here training and putting the work in and it's disrespectful to the people back in Ireland and back in Afghanistan and the others in the associate levels who put so much time and effort into cricket.
Sooda Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 He's a leggie so bit of variety, but even from that point of view it should have been Rahul Sharma, for consistency. Dont get it.
Tridibans_16 Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Till now, total 8 voters and only one has not voted for India..:)
SLICKR392 Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 TBH it doesn't really make a huge difference. All the three spinners can bat.
BeautifulGame Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Guys don't be fooled by spinners performance today. In Indian group you don't have team poor against spin like the English. You need to back Zaheer and with Irfan doing decent that's two spots sealed. Ashwin is your best spinner by a mile. Toss up between Balaji Dinda and Chawala. Both Aussies and SA arent great players of Spin either. Aussies have watson and Hussey and SA has De villiers and Amla.Almost everyone else in these two teams strugle when the ball starts to spin. Warner Bailey White Levi Duminy Morkel all have major weakness and struggle against spinners when it turns. Kallis also turns to test mode at any sight of turn.
bajrang Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Gambhir Kohli Rohit Yuvraj Raina Pathan Dhoni Ashwin Bhajji Chawla Dinda dont want balaji, cant sit out sehwag without sitting out zak. would be too harsh on dinda the domestic bowler of the year to have only one game.
Tiger80 Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Just cuz of single knock? He can win us a match single handedly when he is on song. Last time when Sehwag wins us match single handedly? He even failed to win crucial matches for DD in IPL .His failure ratio is high .
panther Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Where did you come up with Cook as the best player of spin in their side? After KP its Prior! 90 against pak in test 2 100s against pak in odi 90 against sl in sl.
jairamesh Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Sehwag, but i don't think having an extra spinner will make a difference. so i would keep sehwag, esp against the pakis
SLICKR392 Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Last time when Sehwag wins us match single handedly? He even failed to win crucial matches for DD in IPL .His failure ratio is high . He got DD to the Playoffs...with 5 back to back 50's. There were others in the team aswell for DD during these "crucial matches". The match against WI and talking about winning us matches...who other than Kohli has won us matches consistently, lately? Gambhir played a great hand today and people have already started picking him over Viru. Just a matter of time it rolls backs to him once he plays a good knock.
yoda Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 It is true that you don't need 7 batsmen to play out 20 overs. So our strategy in T20 should be to always go in with 5 bowlers. The worst T20 bat of the lot is Dhoni. Since he is cappo and keeper, guess he can't be dropped. So it's between Rohit and Raina.

carnish Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Are you not watching today's game ? We are but this is against a **** side against good spin bowling. India would struggle against pak and saffers if we dont chase
carnish Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Asli class and form will be exposed on the 28th of September. Watto gonna give Bhajji a 'Anchor' Moment ... Shock laga Laga Shock
bajrang Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 sehwag bashing domestic players on placid indian piches in ipl hardly qualify him to open in t20 international. we already have six batsmen who averages above 30, plus pathan who also averages more then sehwag in t20 international. resting anybody else will also kill an bowling option or a left hander or both.
