Ch33rs. Was pretty worried there.

Our selectors in general have been relatively sane, although most of the players pick themselves. Hopefully we're past the days of Bhajji comebacks and Binny in tests.

Wrong place for Pant to debut in as opener. Windies tracks will all be slow and low scoring tracks going by the recent series with Afghans. Pant can't make a name for himself by hitting big centuries but might get criticism for the generated hype if he fails.

The defensive option will be to get in Umesh and Rahane for Rohit and Bumrah and play the same squad combination/balance. I hope to God they change it around after the first game and once everyone is settled.
India still persisting with Rahane in limited overs cricket is really depressing and absurd. Get some young blood in there instead of a proven failure like Rahane.

Rahane should only be in consideration as an opener, and even then we've got Dhawan, Lokesh, and (urgh) Nohit...

Would much rather play Pant as a specialist bat ahead of Rahane at the moment. Not to mention Yuvi is ahead of him too.

In a perfect world they would have brought Samson over, could have seen what he would have been like as a wicket keeper (rest Dhoni) and as an opener rather than going back to Rahane whose limited over career has never amounted to much.

India will win regardless, West Indies are very poor.

I think Samson is pretty special tbh. Have seen him in the IPL and he seems to have all kinds of gears. He has an absurd method of taking very little time to start accelerating.. Something that India desperately needs.

yeah Sri Lanka too. :laugh:


And no, think this series was arranged as an apology for the player walk out when they were in India, for some weird reason.

Kohli should get a few 100s. Everyone will jerk him off in the press and the ****'s head will grow bigger.

Kohli's brand value has got way down at the moment. Kumble inspires respect and going by my friends' fb posts and other few posts I saw in cricinfo, there are very few who support Kohli in this. A few centuries is not going to change that.

How do we know enough about what went on between them to blame Kohli for the breakdown in their relationship? Not that it's going to stop anyone.

Anyway, people have short memories and will easily forgive Kohli when he stars in a few chases. It's just how it is.
