Texy Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Or Rajat Paatia We won't miss a spinner too :woot: Bring Paatia get Gambhir free :woot:
Gollum Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 In SCG against that batting line up he will go for 100 runs in 4 overs. Besides Dhoni doesn't trust his bowling much.
philcric Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 3 reasons: - He steps up to big match games - His ODI bowling average is 14.15. YES! I repeat, 14.15. As a career average it is better than all the Indian bowlers - Australia play the spinners with ease, he may be able to trip them up. India and Dhoni need to take a leap of faith and do something different. India will lose otherwise, guaranteed. That's anything but sage.
Cricketics Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 I wish he was a little extra better batsman, so that there was no hesitation in picking him. But we have to stick to the winning combination.
kubrickian Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 He is a trundler who will get smashed to all parts of the ground with ease. Him and Bhuvi will do well only if there is swing or if the pitch is tough for batting. SCG, MCG type wickets have decent bounce and bowlers who bowl around 120kph will be easy fodder. Dont know what people see in him. Better to go with Jadeja who is also a very good fielder and can slog well at the death. If the wicket assists spin, he will be a handful.
Temujin Khaghan Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 you can say all you want about him, but for a country like india so badly blessed with allrounders and commonsense, he ought to have played a lot more this guy should have played 100 ODIS and scored 2000ish runs and 85ish wickets easily.
Temujin Khaghan Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 i hope this guy gets a good run under kohli i saw rishi dhawan's batting, nothing special. he plays for tier 2 in ranji trophy, so dont be misled with the average.
youngindia Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 having seen many a stupid thread on ICF, this certainly makes the top 10 list. good for comedy.
sensible-indian Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 He is saqs. Oh...didn't know that. I thought it could be but wasn't sure.
Shogun Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 He should replace Jadeja, who's been under par with the ball.
RedFever Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 While we are at it, why not have Umesh yadav and mohit sharma open the batting for India ?
Shogun Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 He should replace Jadeja' date=' who's been under par with the ball.[/quote'] Since the match is at the SCG which aids turn, I'd rather Axar replaces Jaad.
sage Posted March 24, 2015 Author Posted March 24, 2015 Axar's not even in the equation. Stuart Binny is certainly better than Jadeja, though, but it all depends on whether Dhoni wants to put India above CSK-friendship
NareshK Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Since the match is at the SCG which aids turn' date=' I'd rather Axar replaces Jaad.[/quote'] SCG will never assist turn when Aussies play. :P It only assists turn in a test match on 5th day.
sage Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Binny took part in the countdown as well. Great job
