Should we play 4 fast bowlers next match?

[gattaca]

Probably not for durban. The only track that will help spinners in South Africa.

[Number]

Ashwin now averages close to 80 in away tests. 25 at home.

Even if it helped ashwin, he won't pick anything except his nose. The guy is ineffective

Even if it helped ashwin' date=' he won't pick anything except his nose. The guy is ineffective[/quote'] He is too used to playing on rank turners in India where its easy for spinners to get wickets. There's no way he can bowl consistently in the right areas and build pressure on unhelpful tracks to get wickets.

[Ghost Buster]

We shld even if one of them goes down. Its better to lose a series trying to win.

With the next test starting in after 3 days, our bowlers will be exhausted, especially Zaheer and Ishant. Zak bowled 60 overs, Ishant 54 overs :hatsoff: Will Zaheer recover in time?

No one stopped him from playing county cricket or A tours. Think some spinner from A team should be given a chance. Also he looked in effective vs England on rank turners as well. So he is not doing that great rank turner or not.

[rkt.india]

Absolutely. Spinners are useless.

that is why need an extra seamer. Durban has not been dry this year.

[cricketman]

the decline of Ashwin in all forms has been mindboggling' date='i have no idea why we are still playing him.A bowler should not be picked for his batting skills.[/quote'] Decline? He averages 30 in the last 12 months.. Yeah he has struggled abroad but name one off spinner who hasnt

[cowboysfan]

[ThePhenomenal1]
