Wouldn't that be the worst possible role for him?Dhoni still helps with tactics in the limited overs games, doesn't he? Just use him as a pinch hitter and keep him in the side imo. Drop him if he doesn't slog and wastes balls.
Using him as pinch hitter will be worst use. He has not been that even in his best years. If he is playing, he should bat at #4.Dhoni still helps with tactics in the limited overs games, doesn't he?

That's the case currently, yes. But a new Ashwin will emerge from this IPL. World Cup is still far away. Chahal will be exposed.No way Ashwin and Jadeja can be in team anymore. They never pick wickets and don't even quite contain batsmen.
He's currently playing at 5.We keep saying "If MSD plays at 4" like that's gonna happen. It's not gonna happen. He's going to **** India over by playing at 6. All of us should be prepared for that.
Who is Rahul Jr? No place for KL Rahul in your plans? Think we have delayed inducting him in senior team already.If MSD plays he bats at 4. Which means 5/6/7 are the biggest question marks. Hoping recalls for Karthik and Raina solve some issues. Then we've got Pandey, Pandya, Jadhav. It's just about finding a combination that clicks. Maybe let Rahul Jnr have a run at 5 and see how that pans out, Rahane can be backup opener to Dhawan and Nonit.
And I will cry if Ashwin and Jadeja get recalled in place of Chahal and Kuldeep.
Fair chance of that actually. I expect Kuldeep to have a much better run than Chahal.That's the case currently, yes. But a new Ashwin will emerge from this IPL. World Cup is still far away. Chahal will be exposed.
