***Official*** England in India 2016/17

[vcs]

Yeah but the Indian selectors usually consider him to be the most expendable of our seam bowlers. Expect Yadav to get picked randomly over him at some point.

People really need to stop confusing Rahane the test batsmen and the pretender in loi.

Well he's played nearly every ODI for you in the past 2 and half years. So why would I not put him in your expected XI


I went and had a look since the 18/01/2014 Rahane has missed 6 ODIs for India. 5 against Zimbabwe/Bangladesh, 1 vs Australia.


So nearly 3 years of constant selection.

He has done nothing of note however, probably has 1-2 more series at max before being done away with.

Looks like they've seen enough of Mohit Sharma.

Dravid lite in ODIs. Won't be around much unless we have a lot of injuries.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Rahane had more than his fair share of chances. Need to move on and try others.

 

[mackembhoy]

This is our problem for the series. We have the ability to get bogged down and give stupid wickets away to spinners.

You'd be wise to play Aswhin/Jadeja/Mishra/Jadhav/Singh

 

[mackembhoy]

Yep theres goes another.

 

[srbhkshk]

tbh Pandya is the only guy whose performance I care about in this match, really need the guy for the balance.

 

[mackembhoy]

Wow what a catch.

 

[vcs]

Dhoni will manage to get economical overs out of Yuvraj, Mohit Sharma etc. in these middle overs. I still have no clue how he does it.

 

[indiaholic]

As soon as the second wicket fell, I had a feeling that it was time for Dhoni's patented middle overs run squeeze.

 

[Daemon]

Please tell me Pandya won't be opening the bowling for India again?

Come on, dude went at 3 when the others were going at 9.

Buttler's got other ideas

But it would just mean another excuse for them to leave Bhuvi out

 

[Jarquis]

Reverse sweeping the chinaman from outside leg.

So glad we finally get these two batting together

 

[mackembhoy]

Would be nice to have Billings in the side cos he's a good player of spin. But we leave ourselves a bowler short.

Roy
Hales
Root
Morgan
Stokes
Buttler
Ali
Woakes
Plunkett
Rashid
Willey

Maybe kohli will be funky and go Shami, Bhuvi, Pandya plus the twins.

 

[mackembhoy]

Yous need to get this lad in.

Him and Mishra will run through us.

Moeens white ball batting has been awful for a while
