Was a little interested until I saw you had Tamim in both formats and Shahid Afridi

Afridi has to be in the team. He will entertain the crowd and will take plenty of wickets

Can't believe I left Hashim Amla out of the ODI squad :O It was a difficult decision, Chris Gayle is only there as he's a big hitter and another bowling option.

Afridi and Tamim being included are shockers but Mortaza in one day team

Best pace bowler from Asia is currently the Bengli lad Mustafizur. I would have him above Bhuvneshwar in tests and Mortaza in one dayers.

Safaraz before Chandimal but Dhoni in one dayers for now.

I would open with Azhar Ali in tests.

Can you ask U2 when he is going to end his filtering fiasco from last world cup?

posted on 5/9/16

U2 apparently you've filtered some people from the last world cup, will you be putting an end to that?

Kash pretty decent teams those to be fair

The ROW teams are much harder to pick in both formats.

I just shown this to one of my friends who isn't a user on here. He moaned because I didn't put Broad in the test team and that I only had 2 England players in the ODI team. He also said Younis Khan shouldn't be on the Asia team due to current form

From memory, Afirdi wasn't great shakes with the ball the last few matches he played. Don't care about entertaining the crowd, just winning matches.

Please no more "Dhobi". He is past his prime long time ago and is kinda liability in the team. His tactics are hurting big time and he doesn't have any more strength to hit big n finish easy games!

Dhoni is a one day specialist though in my eyes and still has what it takes.

Arsenal,

I respect ur opinion bro but lot of Indian fans are too frustrated with Dhobi, Ishant chutiya, Dhawan phuddu n even Nohit Sharma.. We got talent and it's about time we move on. One thing I really like about England or Aussies that they get rid of dead weight very soon unlike our emotional tool selectors!

I just feel maybe some people are a bit harsh on Dhoni. Dhawan was class few years back but seems to be a little out of nick these days and the same with Sharma too. Murali Vijay looks a good player to me. Neither of our teams seem to have class pace bowlers these days. For Pakistan I would say Mohamad Amir is good and has all the potential, who knows where his career would be if it weren't for the spot fixing. The problem with Pakistan though so many players always have the potential but don't always kick on or the selectors are just silly.

No matter what, Pak test bowling is still ten times better than us. You can see the recent test results and how India performed last time. You may not get Wasim, Waqar every decade but still you are able to get decent pace bowlers. Now India with bloody idiot BCCI selectors keep on giving chances to worst players like that Ishy G**ndoo! However, we can try to give chances to other bowlers but no as we have lot of regional politics too. For me country comes first, I don't care which part or religion they belong as winning the game is most important to me. Also I don't like IPL as it has hurt our ODI/T20 game more than help and foreign players got better in our conditions. Just my 2cents and I fully understand if folks differ from me.

No Mustafizur Rahman in the Asian ODI team?

posted on 6/9/16

I kind of forgot about Mustafizur Rahman but looking back he was very good in the IPL with his depth bowling and looking at his ODI stats for Bangladesh they are very good so far. So he is a decent shout.
