Good, hope he doesn't disappoint, the first class stats don't look that impressive though

you wont pick bowler for LOIs looking at FC stats. LOI stats are good.

Every position has a lot of contenders.

Form Fitness and development of the players shud be seen to take a call. Right now its best we look at options rather then jumping on conclusion. Few should be tried for diff roles seeing their versatility and improvement 

1. Aggressive opener- Pant, Kishen, Rahul, Dhawan, Mayank, Iyer

2. Who can play long- Rohit, Rahul, Nair 

3. Kohli

4. Iyer, Nair, Hooda, Rahul, Pandey , Jaggi 

5. Dhoni, Pandey, Hooda, Nitish Rana, Yuvraj, Pant, Kishen

6. Jadhav, Sarfraz, Shankar, Krunal, Yuvraj (ill prefer someone who can bowl a few overs and can tonk the ball)

7. Hardik, Krunal 

8. Jadeja

9. Shami

10. Bumrah

11. Extra spinner or Pacer-

 

Pacer option- Bhuvi, Sran, Umesh, Rajpoot, Aniket.C, Sanghwan, Kulwant, Thampi, shukla, Saini, Avesh

Spinners- Ashwin, Kuldeep, Rahul Chahar/Chahal/M ashwin

 

Whats good and exciting is too see a huge pool of talent. But opportunities shud be earned by being the best. A-tours and resting main players in many meaningless bilateral series is very important. 

Also NEw players like Hooda, Nair, iyer should be asked to work on their bowling a bit to as they can contribute with that to if needed. I hope We dont carry to many aged and week fielders in 2019WC.
