Added Smaran at no.6 because all 6 matches we never finished well at the end because of collapses. I think smaran will do a better job at holding one end and making sure we will not end up 15-20 runs short which we were doing every match. Let's see what the management will do.
Just 3 more days. I hope he will be playing RR match on 25. Let's go..Ee feeling enti ra chari intha bagundi
I would like to see travis in the field. I think as a player if you are in the field you stop boundaries, you take some catches and interact with the bowlers. You will get used to crowd noises on the ground and also will get a good understanding of the conditions. This might help travis be less anxious when he comes to bat and also I think for big players like travis have an ego. It might be affecting his mind that he is subbed out every match. It might create some insecurity for that others also need to be subbed not only travis. Klassen can be subbed out in one match and Aniket in one match.
Which bowling line up should we go with for the match against Delhi? Option 1 or 2?
Edit: NKR is the seventh bowling option in the second bowling line up.
I think our young pacers are bringing novelty and pace which is what is required in this year's IPL pitches. There is help for seamers. I am impressed with shakib but I have to see praful's bowling for the next few matches. I misunderstood Varun that he didn't do well in the auction but now I understood that it's vettori who didn't back our young pacers and stuck with Unadkat and Harshal. The Punjab match was a blessing in disguise.
Can we try Kamindu no.5 as i observed after klassen is getting out we are seeing a collapse as both Aniket and Salil are failing at finishing. So i would like to see a player like Kamindu who has the ability to stabilize and also finish the game. He can also be the second spinner as we are not playing Harsh Dubey.
We can try this playing 11

Impact: Kamindu and Dilshan
If we need batting we can go with Kamindu or if we put on 200+ we can go with Dilshan.
Also Ishan should stop saying at the toss who will be the impact player before hand.
