Very excited about Mavi and Nagarkoti.
India should blood them in shortly and ensure they are used wisely in the right formats in the right matches.
Decent pace, no swing through. Also the batsmen looked to slog which helped him obviously.
.
Feel for Nagarkoti. Where is he these days?
He's been out of cricket due to a couple of injuries. Last I heard he was going to the UK to treat a back injury.
Hopefully he'll be back playing cricket next season.

Back Injury already?
Hope he does not become a trundler once he comes back. So he will not playing Next year IPL then. Very disappointing.
Dont take it personally. Pakpassion is full of teenage critics who weren't born when the game was full of legends.What an ignorant statement!
When exactly have you seen a 45 overs old white kukaboorra ball swing? Especially in the SC!

140 plus alone wont make you great.Varun Aaron is still India's fastest bowler and was bowling 140 plus when he was blasted all around by Bangladeshi batsmen.So is Wahab Riaz and Mohd Sami.Even in this match, he went for 70 in 10 overs and got these wickets at the end of match which didn't exactly help his team.Good pace. Batsmen were slogging, but he was too quick for them.
Mavi got a bit of stick in IPL. Hopefully he improves.
140k+ bowlers don't come very often. Feel for Nagarkoti. Where is he these days?
Back from injury and absolutely rattled a decent Saurashtra batting lineup spearheaded by Pujara and including u19 teammate at the WC Harvik and Sheldon Jackson in the Ranji QFs.
Also scored a gritty 42 to get UP to a decent score in the first innings.
We will see him fasttracked to the senior team, similar level of talent to Gill, Shaw, Pant.
Score card?
UP 385
Saurashtra 170/7
Mavi 42, 3/39*
Got Pujara with a nasty bouncer.

42? Is he a decent bat too?

Contrast this with Dhoni. When was the last time he played a domestic game?Good to have Pujara playing a Ranji match just after his exploits in Australia. He did not have to as he’s in tremendous form. This is a reason why India is #1 in test matches.

I even heard that he backed out after giving his consent for one of the games!
Dhoni is 37, retired from test, will gain nothing from playing first class game, playing a young keeper is way to go.
But yeah he should have played more list A games to get in to the form
There are no List A game going on. Not playing competitive FC games means selectors would pick him purely on reputation instead of forming an opinion based on form. Dhoni's waning reflexes and eye would be exposed in FC circuit, and he himself knows it better than most.
My point is that FC games will not help him, this bowling friendly pitches will not get him in the form, his problem is not about surviving. He can play easily big Inning, if he want, problem is he is not in flow, he can't rotate strike.
Loss in skill of rotation of strike is leading to slow inning, there was a time I remember when he made half century in 60 or 62 ball without hitting single boundary.
He will not start rotating strike by playing FC games on bowling friendly wickets where prime need is to survive and play slow and long inning.
See playing FC games might have helped him if the pitches were still some batting friendly like early 2000 but now he will gain nothing for odi.
Right now FC games and test matches pitches are completely different from odi ones.
