Flawed team constructs like GT should never be winning the trophy. A non-existent middle order will always haunt you when the stakes are high and that's just what happened with GT
The GT squad which won in 2022 won most of their games due to a strong lower middle order.
@CricCrazyJohns Should be in line to replace Shivam Dube in the current T20 XI for India.
A way better bowler than Dube, has improved his hitting prowess this season. Exciting times ahead
@ThePitchTalks Literally any cricketer plays more than 50% of his games at home. There is absolutely no harm in becoming a home track bully.
You don't select a player on the basis of whether he can succeed in PERTH. Who exactly survived on that Perth track in last couple of tours?
@Vipintiwari952 What do you expect from someone who has blocked the only captain who won them a trophy, bought the Pakistani player who mocks indian army and laughs at auction table when other teams buy players at higher prices.
RCB are just way too ahead of anyone else this cycle in terms of team balance and quality.
Will be surprised if they don't win all 3 trophies this cycle.
@absycric Himmat Singh over Badoni is still fine if the position is Opening.
But with the middle order spot in question, even a 8 yr old would select Badoni any day, and not that Badoni had failed miserably like Samad
