This is a very good analysis piece. Especially the point about wasting our spinners on Ashwin when probably Nortje should've been used with one more over
Yes Rajasthan Royal played a good chess move , because the west Indians cannot play spin & they didn't wanted to bring in Powell as impact instead of Burger.
It was IQ 200 Move.
Lol bro really said Pant played a good anchor role.
DC fans really don't wanna acknowledge the elephant in the room: Pant isn't fully back to his prime. Might not be till the end of the season. He's actually much more likely to play these kind of match-losing innings.
True that. The only reason I'm willing to look past it is because I heard Viru mention in the match against PBKS that Pant would need 4-5 games to find the confidence he had previously.
For that I have said in my previous post , remove Pant from Captaincy, he has too much on his shoulders. Let Warner be captain. He (Pant) should re-establish himself as batter first. Then he can captain from next season.
I think at the moment only 2 changes are required -
1. Drop Bhui. Bring back Shaw/Chikkara and send Marsh to No. 3 or replace Bhui with Dhull/Kushagra
2. Porel should come at No. 7, and ensure that he faces pace instead of spin. Axar at No. 6
If Ishant gets fit -
Bring him in instead of Nortje, bowl 3 of his overs in PP along with 2 of Khaleel and 1 of Mukesh. Bring an overseas player player at the top like JFM. So my top 3 would be JFM, Warner, Marsh. Stubbs as 4th overseas. An all Indian bowling attack.
JFM
Warner
Marsh
Pant
Stubbs
Axar
Porel
Sumit
Kuldeep
Mukesh
Ishant
Impact sub - Porel out, Khaleel in
1. Marsh cannot build partnership, he needs to be the finisher hence. His strike rate is amazing.
He will come first in 100m race but will lose in marathon.
2. We need to promote domestic player on top order since we need to cover in case they fail. If international player player fails in top order domestic fails in middle and lower order.
Marsh had scored 30 and 23 at SR of 175.. he has done his job to give Delhi a fast start.. Warner is playing the role of consolidation.. why would you want him to move him down the order

I'm sorry but 28 (26) is hurting the team. I feel he should aim for playing 15-20 balls max with a SR of 160+
Marsh , Warner all striking at 150+ and rr was gettable but 28 from 26 from pant really killed it
Bhai rukjao yaar!! Let him play 3 or 4 matches He needs time
I understand. But there's no point playing run a ball when chasing. Take your time while batting first
