King Tendulkar Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 ABDV is close but ms ahead with more crucial knocks You know you are wrong. Enjoy the serials:--D Link to comment
Sooda Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 More WTF selections- Amit Mishra. He will get slaughtered. Pak play spin well as it is, he is a rubbish fielder and control is poor- as bad as Piyush's. Why not stick with Piyush who can bat and field better and bowling is pretty much as bad. In fact he is a better Ltd Overs bowler. Sehwag needs to retire too, really he is a bit old for ODIs now. Just stay fit and focussed on test cricket. Rubbish squads. Mishra would have choked on his chai and britannia cookie when he was told he might be playing ODIs again. This is where Rahul Sharma could have played surely. He did ok in NZ with the A team in the tour matches and is a good Ltd Overs bowler. Selectors dont know the difference between different formats It is good to see Ahmed there, I guess they were struggling with pacemen explains Ishants presence. Probably could have gone with a rookie there too instead but would have meant too many newbies Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Chalwa and mishra are both rubbish. Why pick either? Nice to have a leggie but if options are no good then dont pick Link to comment
Sooda Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Well yes struggling on the spin front, but Rahul Sharma could have been picked Link to comment
Number Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Rahul Sharma never does well in FC, but looks class above Chaiwala and Mishra whenever I see him in India colors. Looks a fierce competitor and much better fielder than other 2. Link to comment
Hell Raiser Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Decent squad, but could have given opportunity to new openers. Rahane is there along with him Akshath Reddy should have been picked. Shami and Ishant are good selections. Shami, Ishant, dinda/Kumar, Ashwin, Yuvraj. Bowling attack doesn't look so bad now.

bajrang Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Ishant' date=' Shami, Dinda will play, IMO.[/quote'] yeah, but dhoni likes a fast bowler who can bat a bit ala pathan, PK. BK can bat. with pathan injured and some batsmen with dodgy one day form, dont see dhoni going with that long tail, i see it as Ishant, BK, Dinda. with ishant having poor record against PAK i wish for shami to be tested here. specially with his senior team mate from ranji Dinda hope they will do well as pair.

A track with a bit of pace or a bit of bouce or thats a bit green. We all know its de villers by a mile. Plus De Villiers is better keeper, dhoni is lazy and sloppy some times Link to comment

And that man is de villiers Link to comment
CG Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Abdv bats at no 4 and plays mostly in southafrica conditions which are tougher allthough he has technical problems but still better batsman but dhoni.But dhoni is a better finisher. Link to comment

rkt.india Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 ER of 5.73 overall is pathetic' date=' no matter how you try & spin it.[/quote'] what about average 70. Isnt it pathetic. ER is not the only thing in bowling, SR and average too and If you combine the three Ishant is bettet in two SR and average. Link to comment

And that man is de villiers[/quote'] yes it is every batsman can be in dominant form in his career at some point of time not everyone can continue that form for a long period of time and dhoni has somehow managed to do that. and also pandits rate him as the next potential great in odis. and ABDV is yet to do something like that as an wk batsman and yes both are in amazing form for last 24 months. the question is who is the better wk batsman than him in odis? ABDV at best is in par with him overall he is not:headshake: Link to comment
rkt.india Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 De Villiers. Anyway real shame as I know you like cricket but I hear zee tv has some good serials Abdv has just started keeping and he has done chit as a wk/bat. check the stats. Link to comment

ER is not the only thing in bowling' date=' SR and average too and If you combine the three Ishant is bettet in two SR and average.[/quote'] Who's defending an avg of 70 ? Even Raina doesn't avg that much with the ball. Economy matters a ton in ODIs, which is why Agarkar was dropped despite having a better Avg than Mr. unlucky will ever accomplish. The way you simply discarded a difference of 0.6 is ridiculous; that's a bloody 30 runs over 50 overs. Link to comment
