India-KXIP fan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I can confirm was fan of Ishant and hoped he would develop into a good bowler but he is chit and finished. Yadav selection was a must for this tour but then again what do you expect from selectors picking Binny. Seriously these selectors need to go and Dhobi needs to be sacked. I would back Saha over Dhobi in England. Saha scored well in A tour in SA on pitch where everyone but he and Rahane struggled. Saha is a proper bat, yes Dhobi slogged a few unneeded 50's last time but that's the most he can do in England and it won't happen every time. Link to comment
India-KXIP fan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 In terms of technical abilities as a keeper I've heard good things about Saha too. Overall he won't play but in England he is > Dhobi. Link to comment

Pagalpanti Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Come on, every time we tour we hope of improvement but we see the same old sh1t happening again. Till we don't find couple of world class bowlers forget winning a test abroad let alone a series.. I just hope our 'famed' batting line up holds up as this time they might not even have the excuse of green pitches. Link to comment

I just hope our 'famed' batting line up holds up as this time they might not even have the excuse of green pitches. As long as Pandey, Pankaj or even Aaron play along with Shami Im happy. At least then they are tryng something new. You can't know how good they are without trying them in tests. Yadav non selection was stupid but India cannot play Ishant or Binny for even 1 test.

vvvslaxman Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 openers somehow have to survive andersons first spell and not expose pujara kohli. that is the most crucial thing for india making 300+. second spell onwards anderson won't get that much swing. That has become our benchmark these days :hysterical: Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I think its time to make him an exclusive test batsman,he just doesnt have the gear to play the modern ODI game. Link to comment
India-KXIP fan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 no jinxing Misster SAbbindherrrr Knew this would pop up :poink: Can't say someone will do well without at least 50 others crying about jinxing them :poink: Link to comment
ThePhenomenal1 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 i remember 1st SA test 1st innings when dhawan awkwardly pulled a short ball from steyn and got out.. 1st wicket down.. crowd roaring, steyn pumped up, everyone thinking uh-oh india collapse. then cuts to pujara, determined look on his face, walks out of the room and to the crease. you knew, everyone knew, india's fate was dependant on pujara. after that he batted it out and kohli made a ton and that set the scene badass stuff Link to comment
SLICKR392 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 This guys is a frigging gun batsman. Was practising the short balls in net when India was fielding. Looks all at sea in LOIs, and right at home in the 5 day game. Don't give a shyte if it stays that way. Link to comment
Kohli_Fan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: jokes aside he will be batsman of this series from both sides :two_thumbs_up: Nope that would be Cook unless we play the right bowlers. Link to comment
Zestian Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Team I'd Pick - G. Gambhir A. Rahane C. Pujara V. Kohli MS. Dhoni R. Jadeja S. Binny / R. Sharma/ R. Ashwin B. Kumar I. Sharma M. Shami V. Aaron Would love to see V. Aaron Playing - Aggressive, Not much experienced, Pacy, Bouncy tracks so we need 4 Pacers to exploit conditions and be able to pick 20 wickets in the game. Confused in selection of Binny and R. Sharma, its on the captain whether he would like to have more depth in batting or in bowling. I might go for R. Sharma. Link to comment
Kohli_Fan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Dhawan Vijay Gambhir Pujara R.Sharma V.Kohli Dhoni Kumar Sharma Pankaj Pandey No need for spinners, we need to attack England with all out pace and leave them shocked. If needed Rohit can bowl a few -off spinners. Link to comment
Midfielder Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 who should play instead of Vijay? Rahane maybe Gambhir. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Rohit sharma should not play.. Either Gambhir or Binny or Ashwin. period Link to comment

Looks all at sea in LOIs, and right at home in the 5 day game. Don't give a shyte if it stays that way. He just hasn't figured out his game in ODI's. Once he does that he could play a key role if we're to win a few series abroad. Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 In tests? leaving balls in the sense.. when the ball is decks away off the seam he has bit of trouble. Link to comment
