The duffus trio at the top : Needs to be changed ?

Pandya should be used more upfront to play fearless cricket. Like in matches where team is chasing bigger target, he should be asked to play fearless cricket to gain momentum. Sometimes I think he could have been sent at 3 against NZ. His 20-30 runs could have killed the chase initially in that case, though he failed at his usual position. If he is made free and asked to play shots fearless he can deliver single handed results quite frequently.

May be, but then what if he had got out like the rest did and put more pressure?

The batting really needs to show up. 

We are happy with last two wins but team has been really average. The big tournament pedigree with smarts from dhoni and single handed efforts from Kohli carrying us. 

Kohli has not really failed. He has provided steady hands against both NZ and Ban. But if others continue to play irresponsibly he will lose patience and then it will be bad.

Pandya needs to bat within top 4 with 12 overs left and should be sent with an instruction to hit from 1st ball like against BD.Infact I wouldn't mind him opening,since the pitch is good and with new ball and fielders in,it's probably best time for him to smack some and get the run rate up.

Since Dhoni doesn't want to tinker with top 3,best hope is at 4.

Frustrating stuff, Both Rohit and Dhawan want to settle in and both have been flipping.

one of them just needs to tee off.

Raina got stage fright, was so busy fidgeting his gloves then watch the ball :lol: 

Yuvraj finally bowled, and still got it... But his batting and running is still shit, dhoni or Pandya should come in before yuvraj

Rohit should stick to his strategy of wasting balls intially and make up it for later..He cant hit from ball one...

 

Raina is done...Whatever he scores is bonus..I think he is only for taking slip catches and greeting the bowler first for taking wicket...

 

Dhawn has a curious case...He should be noway near in t20s but even in odis he has been given so many chances and whenever it looked that he will be dropped he starts performing..

IF this team really wants to be world class

Plzz start looking for Dhawan-rohit and raina's options. Flat deck kings

Today our openers made 25 runs in 29 balls in PP, best time to bat such a flat wkt

What the hell was that. Post aus flat decks what has happ to them, They have been shown the mirror in form of tough pitches

Raina, srsly now he cnt even play short pitch bowling on indian decks and in his fav format. Now a fail in t20 as well what next might even become inconsistent in ipl.

 We need gud replacments asap.
