also with his batting if it comes to lower scoring matches. ashwin's batting is quite clutch in home conditions.

Definitely and the most crucial point of your post is Ashwin's batting in the subcontinent is far superior to outside, which is a major variable to consider here.

 

Ashwin can hold down one end with a batsmen, comfortably. Im biased because Ive been an Ashwin fan for years, but deep down believe in an ODI, Ashwin's batting and bowling is superior to Lord Thakur in the subcontinent.


Ashwin can win a game with his bowling, Thakur is bits and pieces, he may take wickets, he may get some runs, but generally speaking he wont win us many games compared to Ashwin.

even in ashwin's case, he should be selected as per the pitch

Siraj was very poor today. Got trolled earlier for saying it but Shami is much better choice.

No he isn't

Shami gets tonked when going is tough+looses lot of steam in "the run of play" now

Yes,Shami could have been there in place of Shardul not Siraj

no he doesn't. He sometimes gets hit in death overs but has improved on it. Even Siraj gets hit there.

 

Shami for Shardul is best solution but won't happen.

Shami gets hit ,in flat conditions

I don't see Shami being an upgrade over him

He still can come when we rotate to rest main bowlers

Everyone gets hit in flat conditions. Even Siraj got hit v Afghanistan

 

yeah need to rest Bumrah/Siraj anyway considering its long tournament

So why Shami is an upgrade?

Experience and record in WC. Don't know if Siraj even had a situation where he is required to defend 15 in last over but might come in this WC

 

Also bowling style complements Bumrah more.

No,that is past

Shami has lost considerable amount of zip from the surface which was his usp

He's not the same,eggsperience is not always the goto thing

Shami defending 15 runs in an over is also not a certainity

Agreed...  Siraj searches for new ball wickets.  Bit like Boult & Starc.  They can be expensive but in helpful conditions they can kill the game in PP. 

Shami is more back of a length bowler.

 

Against teams like SA Eng NZ...  I'll go with Siraj

He's not lost it. Recently took a fifer v Aus.

Its not like I'm asking Bhuvi for eggsperience. Shami has been good.

 

Nothing is certainty ofcourse. But I feel more confident of Shami.

 

I love Siraj too though, so okay with both. Its slight preference only.

I too like Shami,but Siraj has current quality which is his ability to get out set batsman

His weakness is actually our strength,means he is always looking for wickets which is our or should be our no. 1 priority in these flat conditions

Shami is not far behind but as I said he has lost zip which is understandable

I know Shami too will put a strong case when he gets his opportunity but Siraj pips him just

Wood came back to bowl at the death. None of his release speeds were shown in his over. Instead every time he delivered the ball, they showed meaningless stats like runs scored in the last x balls, the boundary banner, runs conceded etc, recent strike rate/run rate etc.

 

Like do these guys even have an iota of common sense? You show the speed and then move on to the other meaningless garbage/obvious stat metrics. Or find a way to incorporate both. I’m more interested in the real time statistics and data than some absolute garbage that these dumb analysts/designers dispose.  I’m so sick of dumb people these days.

The broadcast is garbage...the over I watched only for 2 balls they show the speed..one at 147 click and one at 149..

 

Thereafter all speeds commentators were calling out like 148, 146 etc but none were being shown on the TV.

According to Cricviz Wood and Haris Rauf are the fastest bowlers in this worldcup by a distance and hence the world. No one else even close. Ihsan would make this list too and Naseem would have been somewhere there as well

Nobody disputes the fact that Haris Rauf is fast. But so far in this world cup his best moment has been winning a sledging battle with Paul van Meekeren the Dutch no 11.

BTW where were you yesterday?

Yeah he has bowled the wrong t20 lengths. Im not saying otherwise. 
Just noticing how lockie has lost a lil bit of speed and wood and haris are the fastest now. A long shot from the early 2000s when shoaib, lee and bond were lighting up speed guns.
