Asia Cup 2016

This question is to Indians here; I just finished watching the highlights of India's tour of Australia 2016 (ODIs and T20 as well) and I was really impressed by the batting skills of the top order batsman specially Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan and not to mention new entry Manish Pandey (his performance in the 5th ODI)....and obviously V. Kohli who tear Aussie attack.

Their technique is pretty solid I was just wondering is this due to raw talent, IPL and specialist coaching...and I know there is always this notion that excessive cricket had harmed Indian cricket but from what I have witnessed I think it has gave them lot of practice on overseas wickets. Also what is the criteria of IPL selection? Is this who ever performed consistently well in Ranjit trophy will be picked or else...?

I really wish Pakistan can produce batting talent like that who can thrash gora baowlers around...I really feel so good when the goras are thrashed...with proper cricketing strokes...

If u may remeber, Indian team wasnt this good a decade and an half back. But with the rise of people like Sachin, Sehwag, Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly people started realising the potentiall we have. Then tournaments like 2003 WC where we reached in the finals boosted our morals.
With IPL came huge sums of money which was then invested iñ better infrastructure for training and fitness.
It also enabled us to get an exposure for our local palyers with the international big shots.

Selection process is simple 4 international players and rest indian. Which may include players of national team and Ranji teams. :)

Bangladesh lacking in Fielding, needs boost up in Batting. Bring Nasir in middle and something to do with top order. And we will give a fight to India in Final. Hope SL beats Pak and we are on.

I wonder where is greatest BD cricket supporter @BDforever nowadays.

Damn, when are they going to give Abu Hider a chance to bowl? Abu, Mustafizur, Al-Amin and Tashkin wil be a good combo for the future....when mortaza retires to become the bowling coach.....with Saifuddin in the wings.

Only weak points right now is our batting, Mehedi Hasan Meraj and Shanto could be drafted in a couple of years.

Mashrafi with his belly shines, plus leading team as senior. Contest is between rest 3. Its really hard to choose between them who can be picked to give a chance to Rony. He can do some extraordinary things if given chance.

Once BD had to play with hardly one or two pacers with limited options now its getting hard to choose from so many.

Ranaji Matches are most important criteria. But Domestic cricket was revamped few years back and updated as per modern day cricket requirements. Domestic Tournaments are conducted in all 3 formats Test, ODI, 20-20 considering performance of each player they will be given chances.

Adecypher - IPL did huge impact on domestic seasons we had lot of good batsmen and few good bowlers but they did not produce Fast Bowlers like Pakistan:-).

Mr. Sheher yar shamed to his country very well. He knew that Pakistani team is not in form to defeat Indian team,but he was trying how to defeat his team by Indian team.

@WAJsal still happy with Afridi ? Stop watching 20 good odd innings played by him in 300 matches and analyze him properly.
No need to be getting emotional, get me a replacement of Afridi and i am happy to take him out. A name would suffice. Lol, you can't even provide a name. Face it, he is the best finisher in the country and the only one. Misbah isn't really playing T20.

Keep telling yourself that.We can place a helmet on the field and it'll contribute more than Afridi in 9 games out of 10.What sort of replacement is required to persistently score 'ZERO' in both departments- batting and bowling? Mukhtar Ahmed,Zafar Gohar,Imad wasim or Hammad azam can replace him if given a chance.
Get real, blame the whole team, not only one man. Blame our batting order first, Afridi is given time till World T20 by the PCB and rightly so, as we don't have a replacement for him. Till then he should continue, after which we can look to replace him.

You know as a non pakistani, I can relate or compare afridi to a "Lottery Ticket"..... Most of the time you wont get anything, but the chances of getting a bumper would make you buy every time..... and at times you may get some bonus or small prizes too....

Complaints regarding his captaincy are legitimate, but should he be in the team? absolutely. Do we have a replacement? no. We are too emotional people. Plus he has scored a lot of runs in last 3 series, starting from Srilanka.
 
.
I mean seriously, who is he to think that there is no replacement of him.
Bhai, i agree with you. Should he be replaced at this moment when the world cup is so near? support him now that it is the only thing we can do.

@WAJsal @nair @Peace786
Afridi is a cheap lottery ticket 1000 times agreed + average bowler....He didn't have any Batting Technic used to hit ball harder to score boundaries but since he aged he can't do it any more....He is just a negative thing in the team always get out (99%) and add burden on the rest of the team...Should given chance to Ahmed Shehzad or Imran Nazir.
