TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 He has the X factor......only if he becomes more sensible with his shot selection...he can make an impact in international level.... This IPL will be very imp for him.....few big innings will put enough pressure on selectors and DHONI How is his fielding?? I watched the Cricket India show after the Ranji Trophy final. Two players he said he looks up to is Sehwag and Dhoni. What stands out is his saying that he wants to learn how to be a good finisher from MS Dhoni. He certainly has a similar record in domestic one-days as Dhoni does, except at a much better strike-rate. Kedar Jadhav is yet to have a real breakthrough IPL season, and that's why he hasn't really caught the selectors' eye, because in recent times even if you've had good domestic performances, it's mostly good IPL performances that have been rewarded with a place in the Indian team. I don't think his fielding is all that great though.
tweaker Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 He should have been selected in the Asia cup squad.After losing in SA & NZ ODI series,the selector should have chosen new players like him,instead of the tried & tested j failures
ThePhenomenal1 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 when he have struggling batsmen like rohit, rahane (odis) and raina, then we should explore options like rayudu, jadhav, manoj tiwary. until you don't try you won't know.
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 He should have been selected in the Asia cup squad.After losing in SA & NZ ODI series,the selector should have chosen new players like him,instead of the tried & tested j failures Exactly. Rahane is simply not going to be a good fit in the middle order in ODIs. He has yet to show the traits of a good middle order bat in one-dayers. It could've been the right time to bring in Kedar Jadhav. If he does well, great. If he doesn't, drop him. Our middle order is failing anyway, so it's worth trying someone else.
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 Interview with dna Many may feel that Rs 2 crore for Kedar Jadhav is a huge sum. But the Maharashtra middle-order batsman wasn't amused. The leading Ranji Trophy run getter scorer this season was Delhi Daredevil's uncapped players choice. "Actually, I was expecting a lot more. I have played in the IPL season twice. I am currently in good form and the highest run scorer in domestic cricket," said Jadhav who is one of the probables for the T20 World Cup. Jadhav was with the Royal Challengers Bangalore development squad to start with before being signed by Delhi Daredevils in 2010. He made a 29-ball 50 for Delhi against the Royal Challengers in his debut IPL match to win the Man of the match award. The next season, he was signed by the now-discarded Kochi Tuskers Kerala, for whom he turned up in six matches. Monies aside, the Pune based player said he was happy to be back with the Delhi Daredevils. "I am happy to be back with the Delhi team which is more open and the entire team gel well, and it is easier to perform well without any external pressures," he added. Asked if he is expecting to play a bigger role this season, he said, "I would like to play a bigger role this season, but ultimately that is left to the coach to decide. I am hopeful that I would be playing a more responsible role for the team this time."
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted April 27, 2014 Author Posted April 27, 2014 Thought it would be an opportune time to bump this thread since he played his first IPL game of the season today and should probably play a few more from here. Looked calm and composed during his little stay on the crease.
SLICKR392 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Looked very calm and took the short ball head on. Brief, but a decent outing.
G_B_ Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 yup composed and cool headed. Delhi are morons for not playing him earlier.
shankyindiacric Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Definitely worth a shout considering the mess our ODI middle order is in at the moment.
TNAmarkFrmIndia Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 Played a great cameo today. He'll probably have to play a position or two higher for Delhi's sake. He's looking good.
Cricket_Hacker Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 played well today...deserves a place in the indian middle order
SLICKR392 Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Samson and Jadhav should be slotted into the middle order for ODIs.
Old guy Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 How did he bat ? I know this guy can hit and probably is perfect guy to replace some one in lower middle order and he looked fairly calm in ranjis a cricketer who is ready and near his best.
kubrickian Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Kedhar should play right away in ODI side in England and Australia to give him exposure to pitches which have more pace and bounce. Looks like a good hitter and has a good FC, List A record. Should play either at 4 or 5 in batting order.
G_B_ Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 slot him in at 4 cant believe DD keep wasting him down the order.
Old guy Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 slot him in at 4 cant believe DD keep wasting him down the order. they are even wasting duminy....
Old guy Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 ^ agree i am starting to see why England let go of kp sour grapes moment :P come on that was not the reason and he is rusty now after injury he is still the best english batsman you know it..the whole world knows it and even in ashes he showed more fight than most
Old guy Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 but yeah never ever make him captain there are better candidates in team..
renjith Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 without a doubt he should be playing at no 4 in eng in odis. not just coz he is playing well in ipl as ipl performance alone should not be the criteria for india selction. but he has been exceptional in domestic last year. apart from jadhav, kl rahul and karun nair also looks good for india selction. both had very good domestic seasons. don't think samson is ready for india job yet. he needs 2 good ranji seasons (probably with 45+ avg) before drafting into indian team.
