MI vs CSK would be interesting. Who got the biggest clown bowling attack :rofl: BC we lost the season when we spent half of the budget in Ishan f**king Kashan. Could've bought Boult and QDK for that price.

Sounds one sided & dunno if all of it is true but DK is a gentleman cricketer on and off the field. He made his debut before MS but was never consistent and let's be honest guys like MSD come once in a generation, a whole generation of WK batsmen couldn't play for india cause he was that good (except tests).

 

Never liked murli Vijay anyway, he likely got his place in the side due to sreenivasan quota.

RCB-GT are looking really strong till now, Not dependent on couple of players to win the matches (unlike most other teams). 

 

DK has made a strong case for himself at No.5. It would be a very brave call to pick Rohit & Kohli in the T20WC team as both are struggling. But Rohit still will be picked just for the captaincy. Its good to see so many uncapped players coming up due to this 10 team format, I don't think any player would take his place in Indian team for granted as now there are more than 2 replacements available for each player. 

 

Asia Cup in Aug followed by T20WC in October, They will be announcing the teams very soon. Ideal 11 could be Rohit-KL-SKY-Pant-DK-H.Pandya-Jaddu-Bumrah-Nattu-Chahal -D.Chahar + Bench (Kishan - Hooda - Umran - Shardul), Would be really interesting to see how would Umran bowl on AUS - ENG Pitches...!!!

Is Sheldon Jackson worse keeper batsman in IPL?

He is a good batsman. His first proper season of chances. Will come good at some point. His domestic record is decent.

The story is true and everyone knows it. She cheated on him. He was dignified enough to get a quite divorce and in hindsight it was a blessing for him as his current wife is so much better for him. DK was regarded as best batsman to come out of his state. In an interview Parthiv admitted he and DK got chances but couldn't cement themselves in Indian team while Dhoni emerged and took the spot by storm. After 2007 world cup Dhoni was irreplaceable.

Let's be honest.

Rohit is captain, won't be dropped.

Kohli has a legacy behind him and he will play the world cup. If he fails in that then probably selectors have to take the hard call. So, let's hope he and Rohit find some form as there are many matches left. I feel for Kohli. He looked so depressed sitting alone in dugout yesterday after the duck.

Middle order is pretty weak , the only plus point I see is Hardik is batting responsibly. Also no Harshal ? 

Harshal will be on plane to Australia. I am sure of it. Infact I will play him ahead of Thakur in 11 cos his slower balls will be wicket balls on huge ground there. Plus he is an equal or better bat than Thakur. 

 

I believe unless there are injuries or something else happens this will be the line up. 

 

Rohit 

Rahul 

Kohli 

SKY 

Pant 

Hardik 

Jadeja 

Thakur/Harshal 

Shami/Umesh 

Bumrah 

Chahal 

 

DK, Shreyas, Siraj etc will be backups.

Natarajan over Shami/Umesh anyday. Plus shardul is an all rounder, Havn't seen Harshal batting better than shardul in the IPL.

 

DK should find a place in the Playing 11, you cant bench a player whose scoring at SR <200.
