Sandeep Lamichhane announced as replacement for Rashid Khan by Lahore Qalandars [Post #27]

[Coolcapri]

Rashid was the main pick in draw for Lahore Qalandars and his early departure is a big loss for them.

No LQ need to find his replacement asap. But is he very tough act to follow.

Very difficult to suggest who can replace him,

Maybe LQ should go for any of following,

Moeeen Ali
Maxwell
Shakib
Sodhi
Mitchel Marsh
Neesham
Shamsi

Out of these - Shakib.

 

[Coolcapri]

Is there any good domestic player replacement.

 

[Rellu_Katta]

Sakib would be a like for like replacement ... i would prefer to see Maxwell ...

There is no announcement yet, Any replacement will need to Quarantine before getting in bio security bubble, They need to move quickly,

But knowing LQ management, Don't be surprise if they pick someone out of player development program.

 

[Coolcapri]

I also see Ladi in the LQ dugout, Is he still expected to get fit, Is Salman Mirza is temporary replacement?

 

[Hasan123]

None of those players were in the draft.

I think neither do salman mirza.

 

[Hasan123]

I think neither do salman mirza.

Most of those players are involved in international or domestic action so they aren't available even if they were in the draft.

So which player you think they can go for.

I local replacement they should go for.

 

[b.lesner]

Sandeep lamichanne was in the draft they will go for him.

Oh i forgot him, I think its a good choice

 

[UzmanBeast]

I doubt Lahore Qalandars will get an overseas spinner like Shakib or the others, though it would be great if they could.

I think they'll get either Sandeep Lamichhane, or one of their local products and ask Hafeez to bowl 2-3 overs a game.

Another option could be exploiting the fact that Fakhar can bowl an over of decent spin too.

When they lose Rashid, their batting depth decreases, so if Wiese and Samit don't fire, they will face some problems as they lack finishing batsmen.

Moeen is in Emgland's T20I squad versus India.

 

[Saj]

LQ say not yet finalized.

I've suggested some of the names mentioned here.

Sohail Akhtar was asked - came up with some lame answer - incredible that they didn't have this planned out?

Should try to get Russel

 

[Saj]

Surprised that Hafeez didn't bowl a single ball against Multan Sultans today especially when the LQ pacers were struggling.

Pretty pathetic, it looks as if Lahore might struggle again this season. They look a much weakened side with Rashid Khan gone. Dropping Agha was pretty senseless as well in my view.

 

[Bewal Express]

It doesnt help when Rauf is about as thick as a cricketer can get. He bowls short he gets hit, he bowls short, he gets hit, surely he would realise not to bowl short or practice the short ball to get it a foot higher.

 

[Last Monetarist]

Sandeep Lamicchane has been drafted in by Lahore Qalandars as replacement for Rashid Khan.

Not sure if there are any quarantine restrictions before he enters the team bubble, he seems to be travelling to Pakistan today.

 

[Rellu_Katta]

i thght Va Dussan was the replacement?

 

[Coolcapri]

Not clear yet.

If he isn't available for tomorrow match vs kk, Than they need to add Maaz khan, if wrist spinner is in the squad than better to give him game when you can. what is the point of having him in squad if you can't trust him to be in playing eleven.

Sohail Akhtar did mention his name in the post match interview.

 

[Thunderbolt14]

Good move. I expect views from Nepal to skyrocket.

[BunnyRabbit]

Well of all the platinum picks, they pick Lamichhane. The picks this year have been erratic to say the least.
Sohail Khan, Imran Khan and Irfan have been picked while Junaid, Sameen and a few others have been left out.

 

[Rana]

Good move but why didn’t they go for Adil Rashid or Tabrez Shamsi?
