Mission 2020: How does the Indian team look today?

The month of January saw India play some great cricket in the limited-overs internationals against Australia and New Zealand. The comeback series win against the Aussies gave cricket fans a short but sweet three ODI series to remember. A big loss in Mumbai followed by two great games by India to win the series briefly […]

Mission 2020: How does the Indian team look today?

Just like the Australian series last year, this could be battle of the bowlers..both sides seem to possess matchwinning bowlers..tough job for batters

After ODI failure, how are India shaping up for their Tests against New Zealand?

Openers look very shaky..Vihari looked good in the tour game..I hope they don’t send him to open

Hi Paul, The Indian test team looked a solid bet in NZ and now look at bit shaky..In Australia, Mayank made two 50+ scores in Melbourne and Sydney..India’s overseas performances have been in trouble in the past when Sachin and Dravid would invariably be batting with score 10/2.. India has done well, not necessarily win, only when one of the openers has made some decent score..
About the bowling, I am questioning, is the attack fearsome? Now with the injury and lack of form of key personnel..
With respect to pitches, NZ have greeted India with seaming pitches, in most of the series of the past..they don’t take that risk with England and other such team..I would expect them to prepare a seam bowler friendly pitch..

Dube and Sundar are not good options at all..Neither of them are great in any aspect of their game..Dube is one dimensional batter and unimpressive bowler..Sundar, i have no idea what he is..

I agree with your comment that NZ bowling is their second string..Iyer did play well against the Aussies in the ODIs..we will have to track progress to see how this team shapes up

Yep, if this team played the World cup today, they may just win it..If I were opposition captain, I will look to take KL Rahul out..he is the key..

I am totally with you..Five day cricket the way it is played today is just perfect..we don’t need to tinker with something that is working well from the game’s point of view..If audiences in some markets are on interested in tests, the way to get them to like this form is not to reduce its duration. 👍
