India is carrying so many passengers in its team.

 

Kohli, Rahane, Pujara and Ishant.

 

Thats 4 non-performing players every match.

 

Even if a player like Prasidh played and underperformed at the very least we are giving him match experience to improve.

yes, a min of 4.

Yesterday they were highlighting how many times that the lower order has saved India from bad situations. ~5/50 in the 2nd innings.

 

Its happening so frequently and yet nothing is being done to fix it.

[New guy]

Apparently he has bowled 300 no balls in his career? Those are mind boggling numbers. Particularly since till recently umpires were ignoring no balls in tests until they were wickets

Umesh is very close too.

 

He bowls without intensity in 2 out of 3 innings.

 

Problem is ... he looks really good in every 3rd innings and the TM is happy.

 

Consistency in performances is not even a criteria for the Indian cricket fraternity. They are happy promoting mediocrity and singing paeans all day for aging superstars.

Why he’s not bowling? Is he injured or because he doesn’t takes wickets?

 

Will he still play in the next match to not bowl?

[afan]

Dravid has played with Ishant..and Kohli has a good connection there as well

 

So it wont be easy to dislodge Mr Ishant Sharma ...Chronology and connection has an important role to play in the Indian context

 

Whether it is politics, sports or bollywood.

[Lord]

So much experience and not even one wicket in last 2 Tests

[goose]

this guy is the 5th highest wicket taker ever for India. let that sink in

[vvvslaxman]

300 plus no balls   Kapil dev did not bowl a single no ball in his entire career. It was told he did not bowl no balls even in practice games.

[nevada]

"For me both seamers were also below par in the first Test match, for the life of me I don’t understand how Ishant Sharma got another game of Test cricket after what he did in England, so for me I'd bring [Mohammed] Siraj in for him. The three spinners bowled well enough, so they'll be the only changes I make," Steve Harmison said his YouTube channel.

[Pollack]

Is there " I Love Ishant Sharma" club? How can you not love such a handsome bloke.

I can't understand why Indian ex-cricketers can't talk straight like Harmison or Doull. !!

India need data miners. Everyone knows Ishant is poor India. You think twice before picking Ishant at home and then think twice more and than some more and if you have a rookie then you still play a young rookie over Ishant at home.

I don't think Mhambrey and others like him are unaware of this. They know it as much as we do.

 

But there is something going on for quite some time, in the Indian cricket fraternity, whereby it has been decided that senior cricketers are going to be backed till they drop dead. 

 

While young players will be targeted at the slightest opportunity.

 

Did you see how sad Indian commentators were pretending to be when Shreyas Iyer scored runs twice in the test. 

 

The Indian cricket fraternity is not professional in its approach but follow seniority culture like Government offices of the 20th century.

India won't change for a long time. Rest in peace young ins. Unless you tear through IPL and have consistent performances in ranji, it's impossible to get picked. India si ply don't want to pick specialist one format players whatsoever for some strange reason. 

 

Like siraj for example. Dude is a beast I tests. What do they do? Give him a chance in t20 rofl. 

 

Saini? Excellent In ranji. What do they do? Give him an odi game as his first cap for India. 

 

Ishant sharma? Was poor since 2019. Still prolonging his career by sticking on like a leech due to favouritism. 

 

Iyer has excellent first class stats. What happens? First game was in odi rofl. 

 

Prasidh kirshna. Excellent test class bowling prospect. What do they do? Play him in t20 to demoralise and ruin his confidence.

 

Like what the actual *?
