Shami  5  wickets.

 

There is no way Shardul should play ahead of him for some perceived batting ability. 

Shardul is not in the team for his batting ability, but for the total inability of other bowler to hold the bat.

 

This was to thought about long back when Ind lost in T20 WC, there is not balance in the team.  They are more or less 1 dimensional batting/bowling.

 

Do not have a left hander in batting line-up - They are hoping its no T20-match-ups like situation. No left arm pace. He got Aswin/Sundar in because they thought they do not have much variation in spin as well.

Terrific bowling by Shami today. This game should be the deciding game between him and Thakur. Thakur's batting is not good enough to compensate for his expensive bowling. Shami has good record in WCs too. Can tonk a bit. 

 

@Laaloo this is why I wanted Shami :p:

Cummins breaching 90mph frequently...  

145k & 146.5k in same over. 

Fastest bowler on show today. 

 

I think temperatures played a part too during daytime. 

 

Cummins slowed down after that over.

 

His current spell is mostly 132 k to 140 k.

Shardul  0 for 78 in a non-high scoring match. 

 

Shami will do well in his place. Opp score will come down and we won't need his batting (which has anyway declined)

Shardul may score 20 more than Shami in 1 out of 7 games.  

 

Shami will bowl better than Shardul in 6 out of those 7 games.

 

The choice is simple IMHO. 

 

If I were a part of the TM then my 5 pacers for the WC would have been Bumrah, Siraj, Shami, Prasidh and Hardik. 

 

Shami at 8 and Bumrah at 9 are good enough in the last 2 years. Both can bat a bit and tonk a few.

Was really happy seeing Shami bowl cutters today. This is one thing that has been missing from him in death overs.

 

Still a very underrated bowler in ODIs. Can't believe they preferred Bhuvi over him :facepalm:

if Shami has to bat at 8 Jadeja should not be in the team
