SLICKR392 Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Chris Jordan in good form and looks likely to play. WHo will he replace? maybe braod who is not fit or even stokes http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/cricket/28455196 Most probably Stokes. England have already announced their XI.
Lord Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 watched Finn yesterday in a T20 match.looked as good as ever.was getting movement and bounce at good pace.surely better than Jordan
Sachinism Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Pitch is green' date=' not dry.[/quote'] Might be, but will end up like Lords coz of the heat Yeh looked very good, was really pushing the ball through. Him bowling bouncers would be a lot more difficult to face than the current squad. But not sure how quickly they'll bring him back... And we can't be wearing out our bowlers. They need to be given appropriate breaks where other bowlers are able to keep the pressure on, not be forced to bowl part timers due to certain players not pulling their weight
rkt.india Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Might be, but will end up like Lords coz of the heat t But even Lords did not help spinners much, did it only on 4th evening from the rough. Spinners wont come into play until it turns from the main area and not rough and it wont because of grass. Lords became more variable in bounce which helped hit the deck pacers.

BlueBee Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 lol at 6 pages of discussion on indian team selection.. dhobi will say unchanged team after the toss.. :cantstop: Read the title carefully. We're not only discussing regarding team selection. And trolling :winky:
Laaloo Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Rahane will clearly struggle once again against Finn if selected
BeautifulGame Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Rohit Sharma likely to play at Ageas Bowl Signs from India's training sessions suggest they are ready to move back to their preferred combination of six specialist batsmen and four specialist bowlers Stuart Binny has bowled only 20 overs in two Tests of this series. In the second innings at Lord's, he was not called upon to bowl at all. Although he has played a match-saving innings, signs from India's training sessions leading into the Test suggest they are ready to go back to the more orthodox combination of playing six specialist batsmen with MS Dhoni batting at No. 7 and with four specialist bowlers to follow. The sixth batsman, if India carry on with the trends from the nets, will be Rohit Sharma, who has scored two centuries in his six Tests but was left out to accommodate the extra seam-bowling allrounder. Leading into the first two Tests, India seemed more or less certain about the combination. While the likely playing XI would get into action right away after the ritual warm-up over a football game, Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir and R Ashwin would await their turn in the nets. Just before Ageas Bowl, though, Rohit has been getting long hits in the nets. On Friday, he was the first one to get a net. One of the reasons to go back to the orthodox combination could be that Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been providing the runs down the order, and the quick bowlers have maintained a certain amount of intensity over long spells, which was one of MS Dhoni's concerns over the last two tours outside Asia. Also, the pitch at Ageas Bowl is more orthodox than Trent Bridge and Lord's. Trent Bridge looked brown and flat, which might have necessitated the buffer of an extra seamer so that the main pace bowlers did not bowl themselves into ground. Lord's was green, probably greener than it ever has been, which would have meant ideal conditions for Binny, who likes to put the ball there and let the conditions take effect. Ageas Bowl is a hard, quick pitch with good bounce, but it not overly green to afford excessive seam movement. India seem pretty happy about the surface. In a long Test series, they do not want their bowlers to have to slog for their wickets. India could of course go ahead and change the combination on the morning of the match, but Binny has hardly been getting the attention of the coaches that he got in the lead-up to the first two Tests. In fact, he did not even get a hit in the main net on Friday. As far as the role of bowling a few tight overs when waiting for the new ball goes, India will have to rely on Rohit's offspin. Not to mention M Vijay, who took Moeen Ali's crucial wicket at Lord's and has been bowling more in the nets than usual. http://www.espncricinfo.com/england-v-india-2014/content/story/764021.html

BlueBee Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 which one? I mean is anyone going to watch the match ind v eng.
vvvslaxman Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 So bowlers are penalized Batsmen despite the help from bowlers with bat, are getting extra cushion. Bowlers despite not getting support from anyone are deprived of the only option. I was hoping they would go for Ashwin or a seamer in place of Binny.
SLICKR392 Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Rahane will clearly struggle once again against Finn if selected He's had duels with Morkel. Will be much more confident now.
TheTruth Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Very defensive move by India if true. Looking to protect the 1-0 lead.
Lord Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 So bowlers are penalized Batsmen despite the help from bowlers with bat' date=' are getting extra cushion. Bowlers despite not getting support from anyone are deprived of the only option. I was hoping they would go for Ashwin or a seamer in place of Binny.[/quote'] frankly even keeping Binny is a better option than Nohit lol.but best would be seamer followed by Ashwin
BlueBee Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Aaron in for Binny and Ashwin for Jadeja would've been a better combo.
Lord Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Aaron in for Binny and Ashwin for Jadeja would've been a better combo. Jaddu's not gonna get dropped after Lords.Aaron/Pankaj for Bunny would be enough
BlueBee Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Jaddu's not gonna get dropped after Lords.Aaron/Pankaj for Bunny would be enough Well yeah but as someone mentioned earlier he would strengthen the batting. And Aaron to add extra pace in the attack.
