Unleashed Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 With Hardik and Rohit both out due to injury and poor form of Rahane and Pandey, there could 4 spots up for grabs in our playing XI in the next series. Also Jadeja and Ashwin back in contention means that Axar Patel and Mishra might have to take a backseat. Our pacebowling lineup looks pretty settled right now. Personally, I'd still persist with Pandey and perhaps give Ashwin and Mishra as the main spinners role. As much as I like Jadeja, I think Axar should be ahead due to his superior batting if we are playing with five bowlers. Maybe Rishabh Pant as a opener? It's hard to think of XI right now. tweaker 1
express bowling Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) More than 45 days left for the ODI series. Hardik maybe back. My team Dhawan Rahul Kohli Dhoni Pant Hooda / Jadhav Axar Pandya / Umesh Jaddu Bhuvi / Umesh Bumrah Reserves -- Pandey Jadhav Mishra Umesh Nathu Singh Edited November 29, 2016 by express bowling Mosher 1
WC2011INDIA Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) If Rohit, dhawan and Hardik are not back then Rishabh Pant should be tried as an opener. I have doubts on KL's fitness but let's see. Rishabh Kl Virat Dhoni Pandey Raina/jadhav Ashwin Gujju1 Gujju2 Bumrah Shami The sight of three spinners and 1 part timer (jadhav) should scare half of the england side. Only Buttler, Root and Ali are capable of playing the spinners. Edited November 29, 2016 by WC2011INDIA
rkt.india Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Dhawan will be back. Rohit is unlikely. Pandya is suspect too. He anyway wont play with Shami, BK, Bumrah playing as 3 pacers. Umesh Yadav in extra. Pandya has a shoulder fracture. Sidelines for 6 weeks. Quote Hardik Pandya is expected to be out action for at least six weeks after he suffered a fracture in his right shoulder in Mohali, the Board for Control of Cricket in India announced on Tuesday (November 29). The all-rounder was hit during a net session and was subsequently released from the side to consult a specialist. http://www.cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/84415/englands-cricket-of-india-2016-17-hardik-pandya-sidelined-for-six-weeks-due-to-shoulder-fracture Edited November 29, 2016 by rkt.india tweaker 1

He batted at No.8 in the last NZ series, when we played 3 seamers an 2 spinners. Look at the team I posted above for the combination. Don't think Shami will be played Edited November 29, 2016 by express bowling
sscomp32 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 I would really like to see how the team does without Dhoni. If we do well then MSD should retire. No point in hogging a spot like the glorified others. Also pant would get direct entry as a wk because saha and pappu are not fit for odis. Like the test team reinvented itself after MS retired the odi team also will do. The team gets too relaxed with Ms in squad and then starts losing and the blame goes to Ms. I remember 2 series were Ms didn't play and we won 5-0. Maybe we will win 3-0 too. At least there will be no emotional baggage for me as bhuvi and Ms both won't play and I can actually enjoy and participate on ADF rather than getting irritated and tearing my hair out.

ShebbySB Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) If Rohit,Dhawan,Hardik and Rahul all are fit then this is my team:- Rohit Dhawan Kohli Rahul Dhoni Kedar Hardik Axar BK Mishra Bumrah Reserves:- Mandeep,Pandey,Jayant,Nathu. With 5 more tests to go after the ODI series vs England we should rest our main 4 bowlers in Ashwin,Jadeja, Shami and Umesh. Some new exciting guys should get a look in but you can't drop someone for a other for the sake of it.Pant and Hooda will get a look in very soon but for now you can't drop anyone except Dhoni.But I still think he is the best Wk/bat in LOIs in India.

G_B_ Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 I do hope they dont pick Rahane. Hopefully he bats for Mumbai in the ranjis even for 1-2 games it will do him good. raki05 1

Sandeep99 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Let's restrict Shami, Ashwin, Rahane to test matches. raki05 and express bowling 2

SecondSlip Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 My squad if everyone is fit: 1. Rohit Sharma 2. Shikhar Dhawan 3. Virat Kohli 4. KL Rahul 5. MS Dhoni (C & WK) 6. Kedar Jadhav 7. Hardik Pandya 8. Ravindra Jadeja 9. Ravichandran Ashwin 10. Bhuvneshwar Kumar 11. Mohammad Shami 12. Jasprit Bumrah 13. Amit Mishra 14. Suresh Raina 15. Manish Pandey

And then he needs 2-3 weeks at least to recover and play some domestics, if not more time

And then he needs 2-3 weeks at least to recover and play some domestics, if not more time The recovery time is atleast 6 weeks. There won't be any domestics to play after his return and before the ODI series vs England. He may play the Irani Cup starting 18th Jan though and then play the T20Is. It is a hairline fracture....lets see what happens. There is a bit of chance of him being ready for the ODIs.
Ankit_sharma03 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Some decisons that should be made- 1. Last chance - Raina,Pandey,Shikhar (Pandey if he fails again well go back to domestic, other two play domestic and concentrate on ipl) 2. Tough calls- Permanent dumping of Mishra, Jadhav and Dhawal. Sorry guys u have done well but u dont have any future so dont stop any youngsters place. If after yuears u cant earn a permanent spot in side well accept ur issues and move on. Rahane should also be dropped but i dnt want him to throw him forever, his problem isnt that big. 3. Rest- Kohli, Ashwin, Shami, Umesh. This Side has to learn to win without Kohli 4. Rewarding Domestic perfomances but also introducing right players- Deepak hooda- Incase pandey fails need some backup and he can bowl a bit Yuzi- Did well on Ind-A tour, Has taken wkts in ranji, does well in chinnaswamy in ipl. Forgot sake give him chance he ll improve and he has some future. Whereas Mishra has no future , is a liability on field and still doesnt have the attitude to be the main bowler after so much exp. Kuldeep- Has taken wkts in ranji and adds some mystery to the attack. Also can bat a bit Pant- The X-factor we need at top Rajpoot- I really feel he would be a good Odi bowler, can take wkts with new ball and keep it tight. Also has pace and brains My side- 1. Dhawan 2. Rahul 3. Dhoni 4. Hooda (Yuvraj singh will have a strong case in the blind eyes of selectors and kumble) 5. Pandey 6. Raina ( Jadhav has made it tough for him) 7. Jadeja 8. Kuldeep/ Yuzi (Mishra uncle will play ahead and will get a Phainty of his life from those Eng hitter) 9. Bhuvi 10.Rajpoot (Wont happen in reality) 11. Bumrah 12. Kuldeep/Yuzi 13. Jayant 14. Pant ( Mandeep will be selected not pant) 15. Aniket/Mohit/Nathu ( i know this aint happening, it ll b dhawal) Series Goal- Learn how to Win without Kohli
