Shami is match-fit, Bhuvi has heavy strapping on ankles


Recommended Posts

Ankle injuries are dangerous. A pacer is always putting a lot of pressure on his ankle. BK's action is very similar to Ishant. He also had ankle injury, had to undergo surgery.

Even if bhuvi is fit. I don't think he will make it in final 11
Dhoni hinted after last match that he might want to give him more matches
[bhuvneshwar] looked good, first five overs he bowled he was looking sharper than he did when he came back from the injury and played the Test match. If he plays a few more games, we can see how he can bowl in the death overs also."

If Bhuvi is injured' date=' I'd like Aaron in. Not too keen on Dhawal K. How did he end up in the squad? :hmmmm:[/quote'] Mainly took some tail-ender wickets when the batsmen were slogging him during the Sri Lanka series

Kuch bhi....how does the he know bhuvi has not been wearing this all along as preventive measure.

So it's not clear that whether Bhuvneshwar has again done some damage to his ankles or not.
Then how about not writing something you don't know you effed up excuse of a news reporter!

that is the case possibly. Ishant did this on whole Aussie tour 2012, played all tests and then had a surgery after that skipping IPL.

Depends on the extent of injury. If it is not serious then dont risk and let him rest, otherwise, it can worsen.

An injured bhuvi is better than a useless dhawal.ideally u would want bhuvi to be replaced by aaron but that ain't gonna happen

I think ICC rules allow replacement to be sent for injured squad member

Why is team management adamant to keep a injured player in the squad.They should send Kumar home now & officially declare Kulkarni as replacement

It allows but Dhoni and the management won't they'd prefer a line and length trundler like dhawal and especially when he's with them.if he bowls a couple of decent overs in the net,Dhoni will pick him,that's how Dhoni thinks

Pacer Dhawal Kulkarni Part of 'Indian Team Management'

The Indian team have found a unique way of fitting stand-by pacer Dhawal Kulkarni into their scheme of things here at the World Cup. According to the International Cricket Council's regulations only 15 players per team will be accredited for the World Cup. However, Kulkarni, who was retained in case another injury occurred to India's pace bowling department, continues to be the team's Player No 16. Yesterday at the Western Australian Cricket Ground here, Kulkarni's profile was changed, at least on paper. At the entrance of the players' and officials' access area, in the list of names and photographs put up, Kulkarni was put on the team management sheet that included Team India's non-playing staff like coach Duncan Fletcher, Team Director Ravi Shastri, among others. It's an oddity, unless of course, the pacer has been handed some kind of a coaching role, which has not been made official.

If Dhawal gets officially named as the replacement, we are effectively having just 3 bowlers, Umesh, Shami (with some fitness concerns) and Mohit in Australia. :banghead:

Seriously why this Dhawal hate? IS there any objective argument against him? I would presonally prefer Aaron but Dhawal is not that bad.

Dhawal bowls at around 125-130k. Does not extract any bounce, nor have I heard any accounts of him swinging the ball. Very unlikely that he would be of any use on these pitches. What helped his case was his performance in the Sri Lanka series where he ended up taking some lower order batters' wickets while they were slogging. The selectors should have taken the conditions into account. No match practice in Australia as well
