Cricket_Hacker Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 What use is IPL when our lower order hitter is Jadeja?It's been 7 seasons,cant even throw up a single fluent batsman.
Marut Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Yes strange. IPL hasn't produced one international quality power hitter. If Jadeja is our best, well...
BeautifulGame Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Jadeja plays becoz we need 5 bowlers and unfortunately he is our best All rounder Also in India he is a power hitter but obviously not good enough in these conditions
Tiger80 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 We don't have many power hitters . blame it on genes, diet etc but its the bitter truth.Most of Indian players looked mal nourished
Precambrian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Yes strange. IPL hasn't produced one international quality power hitter. If Jadeja is our best' date=' well...[/quote'] What are Dhoni, Raina etc then? Crazy stuff. If the top 6 did their job, we wouldn't be needed biffing from our lower order really. It's sad we plan for failures.

FischerTal Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 not IPL, but the wickets you play on in IPL are absolutely atrocious. most of the wickets have nothing for the bowlers so even the biggest hacks prosper
Precambrian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Knee jerk ****ing stupidity. We won ****ing 7 matches on the trot in this world cup. And lost one, where it was lost primarily when we let Aussies post an above par 330. No amount of lower order hitters could've chased it, without help from top order. Jeez, the delusion of some people.
Malcolm Merlyn Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 We dont play power cricket.Thats not our game.We play touch cricket and have chased 370plus playing that. What we need is a proper bowling AR. Plus Rahane doesnt cut it in ODIs.
Sachin=GOD Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Been saying this for years. Now players will come back home after 5 months and immediately have to go for IPL. No time to rest or to work on any weaknesses discovered in this long tour. As for lack of hitters - slam bang cricket cannot create quality hitters.
Precambrian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Raina and Dhoni were present from pre IPL times. So what? They made their dough in IPL as well, didn't they? Raina blossomed into a truly reliable hard hitter due to the IPL. IPL is not a feeder tournament - its a ****ing t20 league. We are talking about 50 over cricket here. Jeez.
NotCricinfo.com Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Yurvaj and/or Yousuf Pathan should have played instead of one of Ashwin and/or Jadeja.
amiret Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 What use is IPL when our lower order hitter is Jadeja?It's been 7 seasons' date='cant even throw up a single fluent batsman.[/quote'] That is true. Not one lower order hitter like Maxwell , faulkner or Miller. Dhoni , Raina ,Yuvi are all from pre-IPL times.
Precambrian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Been saying this for years. Now players will come back home after 5 months and immediately have to go for IPL. No time to rest or to work on any weaknesses discovered in this long tour. As for lack of hitters - slam bang cricket cannot create quality hitters. What weakness? Losing to a much superior team in the conditions isn't a weakness. We played 7 brilliant matches. We beat SA and Pakistan. These wouldn't be possible without us firing well. We lost to Aus simply because they utilized their advantages to the max. We just had a frigging bad match.
Precambrian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Maxwell, Faulkner etc were born in the IPL? How ****ing stupid people are!
sensible-indian Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 We dont play power cricket.Thats not our game.We play touch cricket and have chased 370plus playing that. What we need is a proper bowling AR. Plus Rahane doesnt cut it in ODIs. At no 6 and No 7 and No 8, you need power hitters as they won't have time to play touch cricket. Jaddu and Ashwin in lower order when chasing a tight score is simply disgusting to see.

Jeez, the delusion of some people. Out of those 7 only 1 team was good , the rest are all which can win a fluke victory but they all were very beatable
