No no pandya and jadeja as 4th nd 5 bowlers. Gonna be a weak bowling lineup.
This is one problem with Indian side. None of their batters can bowl

I'm skeptical on why Thakur is picked. He'll lose games with the ball more number of times than he's going to rescue us with bat. We can fit either Axar who's very dependable with the bat or a pure bowler / good finisher instead.
 
Flat pitch or small boundaries, it won't be easy for Aus to chase 400+. Will need two centuries or a big daddy hundred from top order.
 
India 399/5

Suryakumar Yadav 72*(37) 6 sixes 6 fours

He will be X factor for India at World Cup
 
Can Australia Chase it down?

David Warner has to come forward with century and Alex Carey can be X Factor Australia today
 
If india want to reach finals they should drop jadeja and ashwin and go with axar if he is back from injury and Kuldeep.
 
Most Australian bowlers conceding 60+ runs in an ODI innings
5 vs ENG in 2018 (Nottingham)
5 vs IND in 2023 (Indore)
 
Axar batting is good but his bowling is totally crap .
Why was kuldeep dropped again? Dint he take 5fer? India is worse than pcb when it comes to selection. Oh unless they want to lengthen tail which makes sense. But then you lose a quality wc bowler.
 
Just have 6 bats + 1 AR and 4 bowlers.

This is the solution to accomodate the best indian players in the startingxi
We can't Play only with 5 bowlers .we don't have any part timers who can Bowl 2-3 over if they needed to Bowl

Kuldeep will play every match, Sharmaji doesn't want to give exposure to Australia against him and i think rightly so.

He is not dropped .he is taking rest and we can't exposed him to Australia becouse our first match is in world Cup against Australia.

He is not a club level bowler. World class bowler in his own right. A couple of games isn't going to make australia get used to his type of bowling.

India is too scared to do that, otherwise Mohammad Shami will be first person on the team sheet. In semis against Kiwis in last wc, they dropped shami to accomodate Bhuvi because Bhuvi could bat a bit and he's a line and length bowler. India inherently makes defensive choices in bowling and that brings their downfall often. Otherwise Shami ODI record is so much superior to Bhuvi that it's not even a comparison in terms of who's the better bowler.

Certainly make huge impact . He is our Trump Card for middle overr period .we want him to fresh just before World cup.

We were lost that game due to batsman not becouse bowlers .

I fear kuldeep against us. Babar can't handle him.


We need to be aggressive and simultaneously precise with our stroke play by making sure we punish any loose balls against him. One mistake and its curtains.
 
As I said during Asia cup prasidh Krishna is very good Bowler. He is a wicket taker
 
Good pace and good bounce. Good talent. Prasidh Krishna. And then we have our bowlers do nothing like wasim jnr off the bench.
Wasim jnr has pace and can bat a bit bur he gets no bounce despite being fairly tall.
