Sehwag back for ODIs
India made six changes to India's ODI squad which had toured Sri Lanka in July and August this year, for the threematch ODI series against Pakistan, starting December 30. Virender Sehwag survived the axe on the day Sachin Tendulkar retired from ODI cricket but Zaheer Khan was not considered for that highprofile series.
The selectors, who met captain MS Dhoni and coach Duncan Fletcher in the BCCI headquarters, replaced allrounder Irfan Pathan, fast bowler Umesh Yadav and middleorder batsman Manoj Tiwary, who are all nursing injuries. The selection committee headed by Sandeep Patil also chose to leave out Zaheer and also the spin duo of Pragyan Ojha and Rahul Sharma. The six men who have come instead are Yuvraj Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Shami Ahmed and Amit Mishra.
While Yuvraj, Jadeja and Ishant's inclusion was expected, Bhuvneshwar, the Uttar Pradesh allrounder and Shami, the Bengal seamer, happen to be rewarded for their consistent performances on the domestic circuit and India A tours. Legspinner Mishra's inclusion in the ODIs would be a big surprise. Even though there isn't much to choose between Mishra and Piyush Chawla when it comes to legspin bowling, Mishra's fielding is a big weakness. Besides,canada goose pas cher vrai, he has were built with a prolonged problem of overstepping while bowling.
You will find doubts over whether Sehwag will play within the 2015 World Cup. He was dropped for the Asia Cup in March carrying out a poor CB Series in Australia. However, he showed glimpses of regaining his form. Still, Sehwag averages only 23.66 from his previous nine games, with just one 50plus score, since scoring a worldrecord 219 against West Indies last December.
In Zaheer's case, it was a mutual understanding between your bowler, they management and also the selectors he would focus on finding yourself in shape for that Australia Test series in February. However, if Zaheer improves on his fitness and the domestic team Mumbai are unable to make it to the Ranji Trophy knockouts,www.newcastlesc.ca/?paged=3, it will not be surprising if he plays a component during the ODI series against England, starting January 11.
The selectors didn't make any changes to the T20 squad that played England inside a justconcluded twomatch series. The T20 series against Pakistan starts on December 25 in Bangalore.
T20 squad: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Capt), Gautam Gambhir, Ajinkya Rahane,parajumpers jacka, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Ashok Dinda, Ishant Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Parvinder Awana, Piyush Chawla, Ambati Rayudu.
ODI squad: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Capt), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Ishant Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Ashok Dinda, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Shami Ahmed, Amit Mishra. India became No.1 in tests because batsman like Sehwag, VVS, Dravid, Tendulkar lone bowler Kumble and some credit to Bhajji. We are seeing the result of VVS/Dravid Kumble not being within the test team. Presently India does not have bowling to consider 20 Wickets on any track or contain any top seven ODI team below 200. Now,parajumpers, on Sehwag, There is nothing called batting form for Sehwag, its about him clicking on each day or not. The only real difference is he accustomed to click most of the time before and not so much for past 69 games. It is invented in early 1970s by Haniff Mohammed and popularized by Bob Woolmer. Moreover, it normally won't even estimate the very best listing of batsmen who exploited this shot.
If it is correct that "If sehwag scores a ton, India wins" and it is also true that "If tendulkar had scored a ton, India had lost". This is true statistically in ODI, but the truth is different.
I admire Sehwag and Tendulkar. But you have to act rashly.
To all those who are having a bash at Sehwag: his latest 4 test scores vs. England are 117, 25, 30,9,23,49 ) for any total of 255 in an average of 37. The other opening batsman in India comparable to this in india? Admittedly he isn't getting centuries galore but only other guys who scored centuries are Pujara(2) Kohli(1). Sehwag includes a better consistency +average than Kohli in the last Test series highest S/R of any Indian batsman. So before spouting off a variety of trash about this blog see the stats write accordingly. It hurts the gamer, they his sensible fans.
Al_Bundy 1: Please awaken ! There isn't any other dominant Indian player who can turn the games into victories that matches Sehwag. Indian bowling is below Poor! It is the batting which has carried this team to be world cup winners along with the Test 1 spot. If Indian opening batsmen fail, so do all of those other batting. History Stats have proven it unequivocally. Sehwag is a best spinner than Ashwin or harbhajan has not been exploited. Anyone bashing Sehwag should look at the alternatives they've in the opening spot. If Pujara isn't in the middle order batting, India has no sheet anchor either. You can put all sorts of names however when it comes to the crunch they don't produce. Large amount of heat but no action. Whart is the record of Miandad or Gatting when compared with Sehwag his S/R. No comparison in almost any format. It requires guts to spread out the batting smash up best seamers on the planet. That is what Sehwag gives the Indian batting. So get Real.
Amol, It is funny to see "Sehwag survived the Axe" in this article. Sehwag is a batsman who maintians his S/R of over 100 in all formats from the game. This S/R is crucial in the ODI's. Sehwag Sachin were the pioneers who invented overturn sweep happen to be the only real 2 dominant ODI players in the world with double centuries a feat no one else achieved in ODI history. Sehwag is also the most feared opener any fast bowler loves to see in the opening overs. India should be thankful that he's still playing instead of calling to axe him. India must take benefit of his style goad him to create much more of his big scores. If Sehwag scores big, India win even with its worst bowling. Media Fans should focus their attention more on the bowlers to boost India. don't kill the golden goose Go Sehwag!
