NareshK Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Dropping spinner will be a mistake on these tracks I agree. 3 spinners is a must. No point worrying about the rain because if we bowl second, the ball will be wet because of dew anyway.
SLICKR392 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Bench Jadeja for the game may be? If its pouring down, we have to go for an extra seamer in Aaron.
Switchblade Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Mishra still not a certainty in playing XI http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/series-tournament/t20-world-cup-2014/top-stories/Mishra-still-not-a-certainty-in-playing-XI/articleshow/32502428.cms "He bowled very well today but we have to assess the situation on a daily basis. if we see there's too much dew on the ground ahead of the match, we will have to think whether we will play three spinners or not," Dhoni said. Mishra took 2-22 off his four overs on Friday, spinning the ball away from the batsmen at a crucial juncture against Pakistan, setting up the seven-wicket win. It's common knowledge that in Dhoni's team Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin are certainties. It's their ability with the bat that gives them the edge when the skipper gets down to select his play XI. It's Mishra who has been waiting in the wings for quite a while now but he made most of the opportunities that have come his way. Even in Asia Cup, he was easily India's best bowler against Pakistan which India lost. Mishra, on his part, said on Friday that he has got all the support that a leg-spinner can expect from a captain. "He helped me and allowed me to express myself," Mishra said. It's almost certain that the leggie will play against West Indies on Sunday, but it's to be seen whether Dhoni can keep the confidence in the Hyderabad Sunrisers bowler as the tournament progresses.
ThePhenomenal1 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 if ball will be wet, we dont want another aussie bashing like in 2012 world t20 where we played 3 spinners, yuvraj also. 3 seamers - aaron, shami, bhuvi - just bowl yorkers
ThePhenomenal1 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Bench Jadeja for the game may be? If its pouring down' date=' we have to go for an extra seamer in Aaron.[/quote'] Jadeja?! his batting can win us a match, excellent fielder and good bowling who has done well v windies. Pref him over ashwin
G_B_ Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Its hard for a leggie to bowl when its wet. I dont think people appreciate the difference between dew and wet. if mishra does play and goes for 4 overs for 50 runs i personally wont blame him. Its a tough art legspin.
Old guy Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I don't see why we should drop our best bowler Drop ashwin if it comes to that
G_B_ Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 one spinner has to be dropped. Maybe drop Yuvi and include Aaron. Trust Sir and Ash to provide cover.
Austin 3:!6 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 So Mishra is still not our no.1 choice as a spinner? :clap:
Pagalpanti Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I'd back our spinners vs WI, they will find it easier to clear our pacers. The ground India are playing on seem to have bigger boundaries now. So no mis-hits will go for 6s.
Old guy Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 If there was pace in pitch would he drop Raina because conditions do not suit him ? It's unheard of that u drop ur best bowler and not other spinners if conditions change
Pagalpanti Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 :hysterical: It could easily have been real news...doesn't take much to get their mullah panties in a bunch. :haha: I actually thought it was a real news until I opened the thread
