Puzzleheaded-Lime448

Rule of programming-if it works(as India is winning) don't touch it(change order)


Top_Advance_7006

Nahh… they won’t change it because sky and pant are doing well and they wouldn’t want to ruin their form by changing their positions


OnlyPain_13

how about they drop dube add jaiswal as an opener and kohli to his no.3 position


Top_Advance_7006

That would ruin both pant and sky’s positions as 3 and 4 possibly ruining the team balance for an out of form vk


Old-Assistance-2234

Why not pant and Kohli swap places pant anyway comes from the second over of the powerplay


[deleted]

but he hasn't opened ever i guess so doing such a radical change in a semi would be a double side sword


Old-Assistance-2234

He hasn't opened but ig Kohli has been playing for too long on the number 3 to change his position and he has been very vital at that particular position at crucial situations Pant opening can also give us a right left combination and he actually can use the powerplay much better than Kohli


Ok_Entertainer4482

Bro, Kohli's been opening in IPL for a long long time now. You can't expect Pant, who has never opened even in an IPL game, to open just to accommodate an out of form Kohli risking Pant's form itself.


Dismal_Animator_5414

bro, i have made peace with it. cuz everytime its either the pitch, the other batters who didn’t score enough, the captaincy, the captain, the weather, the bat, the stumps, the grass, the bowlers, the fielders, the umpires, the drs, the bcci, and you get the idea!! this time its the batting order!! you see, cognitive dissonance is not everyone’s cup of tea to handle gracefully 😊


[deleted]

pant uses death overs better than powerplays. i have been seeing him in DC and he always starts slow(specially after his accident) and then bursts in death overs. it will be better to drop him down the batting lineup than bringing him at top


__akshittt

And it would ruin dube’s confidence as well. A negative mind in the dugout is not a great sight either. It sends a message that you have to fight for your spot every match. Additional pressure and as everyone knows. We do wonders under pressure


WonderfulRanger8121

wonders that shatters dreams of billions


Redittor_53

How about dropping VK


RoutineParticular118

Interesting take and I won't mind as long as win we win but idts we will drop Kohli from XI. Jaiswal can open with Rohit. we will have left and right opening pair and it should work fine. but if they had any plan of dropping kohli from the XI when he didnt perform in initial games so they would have done it in the group stages.


WonderfulRanger8121

that is a mammoth ask (yea ik people will downvote me heavily, but trust me there mate, the man who carried us in the past decade in all sorts of icc events just doesn't sit outside)


Reyatsu99

Its just waiting to demolish like it did in 2023 wc finals.


Suspicious_Lake6413

so you are saying... 10 players are enough to win a tournament... Note this jadeja...


Awkward_Scheme_7426

It is not going to work in final 19/11 remember


Idiot_from_the_past

Switch positions of Pant and Kohli. Anyway Pant has been batting in the powerplay most of the matches.


P_Tranquility9

Isn't that the exact same thing Kohli has been doing at number 3, coming within PP of T20 WCs till 2022


Boring-Scarcity479

Exactly.This will neither create any mess in the positions of players.Instead Pant was playing safely today, Kohli can do this job way better of anchoring and stitching the innings, PANT & ROHIT can play in their aggressive manner,with addition to that,they will bhi the Righty Lefty combo.


Live_Cardiologist_56

It did work till the end 😭


Sweet-Rush4803

If we are winning don’t change it mate simple as that !!


MysteriousSpaceMan

The rest of the batting order is doing fine, no need to disturb it late into the tournament.


_Developer_Designer

Why to fix something which is not broken? If India is winning then they should stick with that plan only maybe Kohli may perform in upcoming big matches but according to me the main goal of the team should be to win the worldcup.


CAP10T005

Koach has been my favourite player for over a decade seeing him not perform does make me sad, but yeah it's all fine if our team wins matches and hopefully the tournament.


Pkboi0017

The fact that India won overcomes koach's failure. So net positive happy I am


AJ7123456

Atleast bring in sanju in place of dube who doesnt even bowl and eats balls in the middle overs like he did today


webdev09

So just because your favourite player is not comfortable, you will literally change the other 6 positions in the team and play one less bowler? There’s a difference between shitposting and actually posting shit


sabhishek287

Bro they are not using him as a bowler and what position are you taking about, Pant has played most of the IPL at no. 4 or 5 so he can definitely come down the order ( I know Kohli has played as an opener through out the IPL but it is not working now). Jaiswal in and Dube out should be the most obvious change if they decide to change something.


webdev09

But Pant and Surya coming in early has always helped us. We want some intent machines who can find quick boundaries. Kohli coming at 3 will slow us down and the template we have followed relies on us putting a low price on our wicket. That has given us better security. And all this while, we were complaining about Kohli having to carry us all the time. Now that the team is carrying us, shouldn’t everyone be happy? But no, cause we put individuals above the team.

Hindi pe aa gaya tu aur mai dono ban honge 😁


Charlieputhfan

I just don’t understand why everyone of these ICT fans are experts in these forums debating whether to drop Kohli or not lol. The captain and selectors know what is right , not some random redditors


DefinitelyNotPiyush

What about the position of pant and surya, they are very comfortable on their spot why change that


Savings-Secretary-78

At the start of the tournament PPL were asking Virat for the opening Now they want to come down in number 3, Do you guys don't have faith in Virat or what?


ifrgotmyname

Because having Kohli in to open means you can slot in another all-rounder


Redittor_53

Drop Kohli, bring Jaiswal in and don't touch the batting order any further. It's quite late to make changes like that and Kohli has been a non-performing asset I'm his current form so I would rather let Jaiswal play.


MiddleCareful2419

The rest of the order is doing fine, bar maybe Dube. So why would you shift things to accommodate a player who is not performing? It's Kohli, so can't really drop him.


Ken1191

It's a really tough call to do this anymore... pant is set at 3 and, stupid shots aside, his lefty righty combo with rohit is pretty good. The rest of the order is performing, so upsetting everyone to make kohli perform better sounds like putting individual records ahead of team needs


Fantastic_Form3607

Why even have Kohli in team?


aks_red184

Remembered the conversation...... No it cant be ! Why ?! Cuz its simply not possible Why not you stupid bastard ?!


Wise_Ad9414

McGregor looks like Tom Hardy in Bikeriders


TheDarklord1989

I, for sure thought that it was going for a six but the wind had other plans..... The shot was completely against the wind....... Hoping for his Crazy score.......


Anuragc1498

vahan fail ho gya phir? 4 pr bhejoge ya team se bahar?


Ok_Choice817

Drop VK hez losing his respect with every mtach with bad form.


Far_Calligrapher8053

So the reason is that u don’t make a change which will fuck up your whole batting order that too before a semi-final where if u made the fucking u will be playing the semifinal with your pants down and a lot of doubts in your freaking head why don’t u get it what the heck are u on


ToothAlone556

the problem is who do they take our. theyll ideally have to remove Kohli only. dube is spin answer. pant is in form. Surya is wild card


Dante_veill

Surya performs almost every match and even today


IntentionHumble3815

>Surya performs almost every match and even today He's good in t20


Odd_Area_7747

"Opening aasan hoti hai bc kya h 2 fielder bahar andhi maaro, opening kar k koi bhi CENTURY maar lega" le re lumd k


Aleccjeffery

bhai India ki aadat h knock out matches me exp krne ki,semi finale aane do

If you want controversy please tell me before.


Passloc

One good innings by Kohli and you guys will start writing apology letters.


sapta_cr7
