Jayant Yadav is a parcha selection because of Aniruddha Choudhury. He didnt help his chances by performing not so well. Parcha selection in the XI? Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yeah should bat ahead of Jaddu atleast Remember Jaddu used to bat ahead of Ash under Dhoni.Didnt make him less of an AR Difference is both Jadeja and Ashwin would walk into the team as bowlers alone.So it didn't matter . But Jayant can't .If he is play , then he should justify playing ahead of both Ashwin and Jadeja.Otherwise we are better of playing Nair or Rohit and utilizing their part time spin. Link to comment

He should bat up only when quick runs are required. express bowling 1 Link to comment

express bowling Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 How is Karun Nair as a spinner ? Has anyone seen him bowl. Gavaskar was saying that he is a decent spinner who is good enough to be a support bowler. If true, then he can be a batting-allrounder in spinning conditions. Link to comment

Hardik is practically a tail ender in terms of batting at test level. He is only good at slogging in T20s/ODIs and that too only on flat pitches. They should only pick him if they think he is a better bowling option than Ishant and not for his batting. Edited February 25, 2017 by kubrickian Link to comment

Is Rohit better bat than Jayant :P Hes not playing ahead of them,rather in support of them as 3rd spinner.In these conditions,he'll make it in 4 bowler attack too ahead of Ishant He's not a part timer.Here he bowled just 23 overs.Should be use more Link to comment
flat_wicket_bully Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I can't believe people saying that Nair is best player of spin. Innings before that 300, he was struggling to play bowler like Rashid. India's best batsman against spin is Kohli. Even today he looked the most comfortable of all Indian batsman. And I don't think we were arrogant, we just played poorly in every facet of the game. I just hope that we can bounce back from this defeat Link to comment

Do you really think Jayant can play the kind of Rohit played against Kiwis in the 2nd test ? We all love to mock Maggie but let's be reasonable here lol.He averages 30 in FC. Jayant Yadav our 3rd best spinner ? He averages 46 with the ball.In such case if we are treating him as a bowler first should be dropped honestly. Link to comment

Jimmy Cliff Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Didn't Australia go in with only 5 specialist bats + 1 AR + 4 bowlers as well? express bowling 1 Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 33 after this Test 46 is with the bat Oh my mistake.Still the point remains the same tbh. Needs to be a batting all rounder if he is to play in this side and bat ahead of both Link to comment
