In LOI, I think we need to add another batsman in the playing 11. We should go something like
2 fast bowlers, 1 full time spinner, bowling AR and 2 batting AR.

Rest is up to you Captain!

2 batting AR means we would have a very weak bowling line-up as [MENTION=130409]Ibad17[/MENTION] mentioned we need AR's but not to many. Also we only need 5 bowlers, adding a sixth bowler who is a Batting AR will just make our batting weaker, nothing more.
 
Don't play me as opener. We all know how that went in the Test series :srt

I was thinking to put forth the suggestion wrt contract swap between you and a Bowler.

[MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION] we need an AA as a Batsman. With that we can play two SC bowlers.

Change player type of one of our two AA members. One AA has to be a batsman.
For second player type change, we need SC BOWLER to be Fast Medium.

For swap, B contract with a C Bowler. As a result we will have a B Bowler.

The player changes do not mean the players Contract changes it just gives them a new role.

This is what I am thinking of

Player Role Changes:
1. DFK from F to FM
2. ???

Contract Swap:
1. ???

Any other suggestion would help so we can lock in the changes.
 
Ok guys, since you seem to be finding this tough to figure out, I am going to make this a bit more flexible.

You can make a total of three changes. This can be any combination of contract swaps and player type changes.

So it can either be 1 contract swap and 2 player type changes, or 2 contract swaps and 1 player type change, or 3 contract swaps, or 3 player type changes. Take your pick.

Let me know if you have any further questions [MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION] [MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION].
 
The player changes do not mean the players Contract changes it just gives them a new role.

And that's what I said. May be I should had explained it more.

Player Role Change
1=We have two AA bowlers. Give one of them a new role (Batsman) so we have one AA as a Bowler and one as a batsman. When we include AA batsman in XI in some games, we may not need a SC batsman in some games and we can play two SC who are bowlers. This wont compromise our batting a lot.

2=Then We have Three SC, change role of [MENTION=137118]Mir jibran[/MENTION] to Fast Medium.

Third suggestion wrt swap was an idea of changing our B contract (Batsman) with a C Bowler so we end up having B as a bowler and our current B becomes a C batsman.
 
So [MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION] this is what I am getting

1. Change DFK from Bowler to batsman
2. Change MJ from F to FM
3. Swap HR and Abdullah making HR C contract and Abdullah B
 
Will prefer chasing when both DFK and [MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] play. And we will need a boost for a C Pacer.
 
What about this
[MENTION=130409]Ibad17[/MENTION]
[MENTION=137118]Mir jibran[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION]
[MENTION=138411]EngrOmair[/MENTION]
[MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION]
[MENTION=132969]Da_Future_Knick[/MENTION]
[MENTION=143502]MoJoJoJo[/MENTION]
[MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION]
[MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION]
[MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION] (boost)

Or [MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION] in place of DFK and boost [MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION]
 
What about this

[MENTION=130409]Ibad17[/MENTION]

[MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION]
[MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION] (boost)

Or [MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION] in place of DFK and boost [MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION]

Yep, that is the best playing xi to go for in this match don't feel we need to really boost bowlers as it is a spicy wicket already.
 
Flat and Bouncing Wicket chosen by India suggestions for playing XI?

[MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] [MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION] [MENTION=139075]Hadi Rizvi[/MENTION] [MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION] [MENTION=142013]ahmadharis1[/MENTION] [MENTION=140064]predictablyunpredictable[/MENTION] [MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION] [MENTION=132969]Da_Future_Knick[/MENTION] [MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION] [MENTION=137118]Mir jibran[/MENTION] [MENTION=38337]imshally81[/MENTION] [MENTION=143502]MoJoJoJo[/MENTION] [MENTION=130409]Ibad17[/MENTION]
 
[MENTION=142013]ahmadharis1[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION]

[MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION]
[MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION]

Boosts for [MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION] and [MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION]

6th bowler will be needed here. Can't bowl out opposition on a flat pitch. To balance this, we boost a batsman (C to B) and an AR (B to A).
 
Depending upon the pitch, [MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] can be rested i guess. Time for [MENTION=38337]imshally81[/MENTION] perhaps.
 
Congrats lads we have successfully won the ODI Series, time to humiliate India even more with a whitewash!

[MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION] Your thoughts skipper. You need a well earned rest.

What would you think about this squad?


1. [MENTION=142013]ahmadharis1[/MENTION]
2. [MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION]/ @ Hadi Rizvi
3. [MENTION=138411]EngrOmair[/MENTION]

10. [MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION]
11. [MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION]

I feel this line-up is more balanced with both bat an ball, thoughts?

I still think [MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] can be asked to rest for [MENTION=38337]imshally81[/MENTION] . We have an AA batsman in DFK. Two SC bowlers mean we won't miss a 6th bowler and can play an extra C batsman alongwith AA batsman to accomodate for [MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] .

Sole purpose was that everyone end up having played atleast 1 match.

Regardless, i think we should chase.

Seems good.
 
Guys, let us be active on the T20 match threads as much as we can. We need people to sign up for the PSL league else it would have to be scrapped.

It would be great if we could be more active on the match threads guys, much appreciated.

Good win boys, moving on to the next match. India looking to choose dry/normal pitch with a turning variation.

Replace [MENTION=137118]Mir jibran[/MENTION] with [MENTION=38337]imshally81[/MENTION] .
and
plan a) boost for [MENTION=143502]MoJoJoJo[/MENTION] and [MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION]
or
plan b ) Replace DFK with [MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION] and boost [MENTION=130409]Ibad17[/MENTION] .
[MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION] should open here.
 
My suggestion.

[MENTION=139288]Abdul[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION]

[MENTION=38337]imshally81[/MENTION]
[MENTION=140491]Greenstorm[/MENTION]
[MENTION=141390]Ellipsism[/MENTION]

Bat First
 
My bad [MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION] for not announcing the playing xi, the thing is I was on the road for 12 hours and, am meeting some relatives after a very long time and had no chance to even go on the internet till now.
 
Got beat in the second T20 unfortunately however we have 3 boosts remaining in the last T20I and with normal and bouncing likely to be the combo picked by jeetu we should clinch the series.
 
I think we should play same XI that won first T20 and we shuffle the batting order.

Boosts for [MENTION=141804]QalandarFan[/MENTION] , [MENTION=143502]MoJoJoJo[/MENTION] and [MENTION=8340]mmkextreme_1[/MENTION] .

DFK moves down 2 places to take role of a finisher.
