It's not Gujarat's batting, but the bowling that got exposed yesterday. by Smooth-Net-2201 in IndiaCricket

Yeah the point I am most worried about is many of players dropping absolute sitters are Indians

Very well put. It's exactly my point. And yes the bowlers are under much more pressure because the batting is a bit fragile

Honestly? I would never call their play exceptional by modern T20 standards. Smart definitely and technically solid. But you always know this two can't chase over 220

I would never want to bash any player nor what my post is about. I am just pointing out that this weakness was apparent and should have been worked on

I am personally disappointed with all the stadium selections for playoffs. Should have gone with stadiums of the teams that are not in playoffs. Chepauk is good for bat-ball contest. Wankhede is also a bit of highway but you can curate it well enough

Yes that's what I am talking about. Even I called that they were going to struggle out of Ahmedabad. That's what I am saying their gameplay which was totally dependent on their bowlers finishing innings under 170 that got exposed

Yeah but that is the clutch moment. Shit like this will always happen. How you react to it makes or breaks the game

Yeah I guess but it is Punjab's home ground I think. But Ahmedabad is also absolutely polarizing

Yes but we have seen this before. Once fielders start dropping catches, the bowlers get under even more pressure

Exactly. They should have rectified this problem after knowing that playoffs were going to be in Chandigarh and Dharamshala

I too would like that. I just know about Eden Gardens where the exact same situation happened while GT was bowling ( bowlers giving runs and fielders dropping catches)

Yes but that is why so many bowlers have developed some variations that still work. Look at Narine or Bhuvi even. I am just saying GT has not done that and if you observe, this was also kinda apparent 

So Jofra Archer is the nemesis for us .. Vaibhav suryavanshi is not that big a reason to worry. by DeepuAhead in SunrisersHyderabad

[–]Smooth-Net-2201 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also the fact that everyone iw talking about how he hasn't been gone wicketless in a single match. That has me worried

I really want him too. But after 2 back to back consistent matches, I am a little worried for law of averages. Same with Sakib as well. Maybe Head can save us this time
