Manpreet Juneja - Discussion Thread

[carnish]

This Guy has had a tremendous run in Domestic cricket since his debut in 2011, be it First Class games, List A games or T20 games, This man has a very enviable average. I had not seen him bat before this IPL but had heard a lot about him from many sources. After watching him bat in the three games for the DareDevils, I have been very impressed by what he has to offer. The first thing that strikes me about him is the ease with which he has played the short ball. On top of that looks good of the front food, plays the pull shot decently well and is strong off his pads. Looks pretty composed at the crease too. Only thing that I'm I am not sure about is his temperament and how much pressure can he take. It will become imminent once this season of IPL is over and he gets a few chances to play for India A. He is fairly young at 22 years and looking at where things stand, is looking like a serious talent. All in all, I have become a fan of this lad's batting and I'm seriously hoping he does well in this IPL and the following domestic season. I would really like to see him in A tours this year too and in an ideal world, he should be playing for India in about 18 months from now. Here is his Domestic Record till Date: All the best Juneja ... Go on to make 20+ Test Centuries for India. :two_thumbs_up:

[carnish]

Arey, its not about where he scored his runs ... But the technique he displays is good enough to give him long term chances in A tours and other games.

[trundlerNO1]

Like the way he plays on his front foot

[PBN]

has got very good records and start in domestic cricket.

Give us one of these young batsman like dhawan and juneja. We will send some of our pace bowlers to serve sir jaddu every day

Your second line bowlers aren't better than our first line bowlers. However, our bench batting is better than your first line batsmen.

I want some of the rubbish pacers like shahadat, abul, rubel and all other gongs to India to serve sir jaddu, i.e. massage him, cook for him, etc.

[King Tendulkar]

A tour

[Pagalpanti]

Those stats and he's just 22. Technically quite nice as well, should be fast-tracked to SA-A tour.

[Number]

Poor T20 bat.

[NameGoesHere]

Poor T20 bat.

I agree. But, with his current FC stats, that's a point in his favour. I hope he doesn't **** up his long game trying to get better at the hit and giggle. The latter will come soon enough anyway.

[tweaker]

Has a good temparement and technique.Good future prospect

[King Tendulkar]

^ Thats harsh. Another year or 2 would not rule this fella making it

[fineleg]

What's the reason this guy has done well on A-tours (supposedly more difficult) but is not doing good in the Ranji domestic matches!?

[rkt.india]

People can have poor form. He still averages 60 in FC. He is a determined young guy, will certainly come back.

Pujara also mostly plays on Rajkot patta. He has a good technique and can play pace well. He was the lone fighter against WI A match which we lost, scored 50s in both the innings on a not so easy batting track. First time, I saw him play Aaron in 2010 while most batsmen were hurried and uncomfortable he handled the pace well enough.
