Ya, I just wanted a leftie righty combo at top but Gill will play most likely and Ishan will be backup. Rest of the team will stay as it is unless its a turner then they will swap Shami with Axar/Washi

Crazy to see how much Siraj and Axar have improved in last 1 year. Siraj is now bonafide world class bowler and Axar's batting has come a long way (still not as good as Jaddu but much better than how he was about an year ago). If Bumrah is fit, the we can bowl Bumrah and Siraj with new ball, Shami with Kuldeep/Jaddu/Axar in Middle overs and then Bumrah and Pandya at death. But we should seriously be looking at Washington as another spinning option as he is a proper batsmen who can bowl in powerplay. This lineup looks good to me:

 

Rohit

Ishan

Virat

Iyer

KL

Jaddu

Pandya

Kuldeep

Bumrah

Shami

Siraj

 

Would switch shami with someone like shardul or prasidh/umran. Better batting depth or ability to pick wickets in middle.

So, curator has been sacked.
Imo it's quite harsh as we all agree pitch was tough to Bat but not impossible. It's the inability of our batters to play quality spin which is exposed again and again. And to sack a curator just after one pitch is a bad precedent especially when curator specifically said he received a request from Indian team to create a spinning track. 

 

Now all curators will prepare 200+ tracks with bowlers treated as bowling machines.

It is more a reflection of modern batters, not just our team. They fall as soon as there is a hint of spin or swing

He should have been warned instead of a sack. That was one of the most boring T20s ever. Even playing against pace bowling was tough.
