No Australia

 

[The Bald Eagle]

No Australia

They have made the foolproof plan this time to defeat Aussies as they are not great in UAE so my guess is they would prefer UAE to be the host for their matches.

If Jaiswal doesn't get picked in the ODI series before CT then it would be one of the most idiotic decisions ever made by BCCI.

Jaiswal has to be there, he is our best young batsman and is a left handed top order bat, gives more balance to the team.

I would pick this squad:

Batsman-
Rohit
Kohli
Gill
Jaiswal
Iyer

Wicketkeeper batsman
Pant
Sanju Samson (not KL rahul pls)

Pacers
Bumrah
Shami
Rana
Siraj

Allrounders
Hardik
Sundar
Axar

Spinner
Kuldeep Yadav


Chances to win CT are very low.

Why rohit? Kohli i get.

Also yes ik rohit is captain and will be their, but it's hypothetical atm and it's your pick? Why rohit?

2023 pp bashing and 2024 aus game was his final gas in the tank. He has no more left now.

2. Yashasvi Jaiswal
3. Shubman Gill

He can still bash in PP, in our last odi series vs SriLanka he was the only one who scored runs and in fact was the highest run scorer from either side.

Rohit scored 157 runs at an average of 53 and str rate of 141 hitting 18 fours and 8 sixes in those 3 low scoring ODIs.

The second highest str rate in that series was 104 by wellalage.

Rohit is better than Kohli atm in ODIs.

They would perform mostly in group stages, they hardly do good in Knock outs so good for other teams. Missing out on Raturaj Gaikwand would be a mess for India

 

[Devadwal]

Lol no one is taking about nitish Reddy. He is going to include and india have luxury to play 4 allrounders (Hardik, Nitish Reddy, Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja)

 

[Vikram1989]

He was not even able to put bat against the ball in aus.we don't need any ftb or htb

 

[Vikram1989]

Playing 11

Rohit
Jaiswal
Gill
Kohli
________

Gill or Jaiswal should bat at 4 if required as kohli can't bat against spin or on tough tracks.

Pant
Pandya
Nitish
Washi/axar ( as per the opposition no of lefties or righties)
Kuldeep
Shami/siraj
Bumrah

14)Kl as pant fitness is questionable after so many series .
15)Rana/Akashdeep

If the batting as usual sucks, then kd out and get bow spin ar's .

 

[jnaveen1980]

It will come down to fitness.

 

[deltexas]

They need to drop rohit kohli mental midget klrahul.. jaiswal not in the team is criminal..

 

[Hitman]

Whatever be the team, I'd rather not reach the finals than reach it and lose. I feel the Aussies will clinch the trophy.

 

[Vikram1989]

I feel it will be as bad as nz series
. all the washed up players will go in to incognito mode for ever.it may be one of the lowest point of indian cricket next year but a right one in transformation with out superstar culture .

 

[Devadwal]

I don't want Rohit,Kohli and KL ( xan Only Play in test) to Play for India anymore .

If they Play no chance for India to reaching in Semifinals . They are already passed their prime .

Anybody wants to make changes to this squad??? Perfect squad no???

 

[Vikram1989]

Kl,arshdeep, jadeja are not required. Arshdeep too inconsistent in longer formats. KL is done .we need axea instead of oldie jadeja.Nitish should come in at 7 position to fix the batting failures of kohli and rohit.both are not required but will try to leech one last time.in short 2007 wc in making

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Yes, we saw that in t20 WC.

 

[jnaveen1980]

ROhit and Kohli should quit. But that won't happen. They will tell "We have very little time to make changes"

 

[Vikram1989]

It will tell whether gambhir have any guts to do it or not.most probably nothing will happen .but be cause of nz series and bgt, they will leave after ct25 for sure.otherwise pr teams were adamant to let them play till 27wc.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Not what I want but it will be along these lines I think

Rohit
Gill
Kohli
Iyer
KL
Pant
Samson
?
Pandya
Kuldeep
Siraj
Shami
Bumrah
Arshdeep
Jadeja

Only 1 batter/batting allrounder spot is there imo .

If they are really bold, they'll replace Jadeja with Axar, that's it.

 

[deltexas]

Sorry but no. No way should rohit kohli klrahul be in the team. They are way past their prime. There is so much exciting new batting talent in Ind - jaiswal, abhishek Sharma, tilak , parag, nitish reddy etc...

Jadeja would be a liability, Washington would be much better option. And without Jaiswal India won't have any X factor

 

[Nikhil_cric]

All 3 of Rohit, Kohli and Jadeja would probably be liabilities but I don't think that's going to mean much to GG and selectors .

Also, Jaiswal has not even made his ODI debut yet. Not sure they'll take that chance now.
