Rayudu replaces injured Dhoni

[JaFanatic]

should have gone for saha or smit patel but rayudu is not a bad choice :nice:

[SLICKR392]

Rayudu is a better option in the lower middle order. They picked Rayudu on the basis of the vacant position down the order. Best player to have there, TBH. vvs is pissed to see another MI player being included. :cantstop:

Rayudu bats low for MI. Not for his state i think. Anyway not a horrible call as Pujara may not fit this line up. Uthappa could have been another choice.. He could have been pushed to open and let Rohit play as a finisher.

Rohit as a finisher :haha::hysterical:

I cant believe these are Indian selectors. How come they are making one good decision after another ? :hmmm: Rayudu is a good pick. He has the game to play an anchor and build a partnership and he can also play the big shots. He has also done well in A tours in overseas conditions over the years.

Yes selctors are behaving in a bizzare manner

I really like the fact the we are recalling guys between 25 to 30. Guys who have learnt their gme from failures, improved and now know how to play. Rather then some talented 18 to 22 year old, who will become a player maybe but is now not ready. Although the kids are missing out experience!!! Catch 22 situation

25-30 is not that old specially for batsman prime age comes even after 30 u just cannot waste so much talent just cos of obsession of getting young players who are not even ready if some one is really special he will perform in ranji easily and break into team like kohli did imo (i know his u19 fame helped him but he did well in limited ranji matches he played )

[cowboysfan]
