*Official* Sri Lanka in India 2019/20

Hardly matters. Rohit's gonna replace him anyway

 

[Daemon]

I think they’ll move Rahul to 3

 

[harsh.ag]

None of the contenders capitalising on an easy scenario.

 

[Daemon]

Thakur's good for something then

 

[googlyeyes]

****. Just get Shaw in there when he recovers to open with Rohit.

Shaw
Rohit
Rahul
Kohli
Iyer
Pant

That should be the top 6.

 

[Daemon]

Saini is so gun. Used to be pedestrian and now he's proper express.

 

[OverratedSanity]

de Silva is a lot of fun to watch

 

[Malcolm]

That was unnecessary from Mathews.

 

[harsh.ag]

Would be great to have Saini in the squad for the WT20

 

[vcs]

I'm liking the look of Saini too. Seems to have a mean yorker which is always a great selling point.

Shardul has really done nothing wrong with bat or ball, though none of us seem to rate him haha.

 

[Daemon]

He's a bit better in T20s (still don't rate him though) but his ODI bowling is what makes most people write him off.

 

[Noumenon]

Saini is so gun. Used to be pedestrian and now he's proper express.

Could you help me point out matches where you thought he used to be pedestrian?

 

[Noumenon]

Actually, would be great to have Saini in tests. For me, Shami is a one-series-at-a-time prospect. Bumrah is only feeling his way back in and we will see how he goes in tests. India are lined up to play an incredible 9 rigorous tests - back to back - against Australia and England starting December 2020. There will be casualties. Be nice to have back ups who can hit the road running.

I'm clearly mixing him up with someone, just read up a bit and pace has always been his strength.

 

[NUFAN]

SL are so bad, they are lucky to be in the easy group for the WC qualifiers.

Why on earth did Malinga both 3 overs up front.

 

[honestbharani]

Escaping from Kohli, obv.
