Beijing Blitzers Team Thread for 2009- "From Beijing to North Pole,We are the best at cricket"

@ Suren : Well yes the internationals will have higher averages than the normal members and also they may perform well as AR. Yusuf is a pure batsman but we'll have to see how Watson performs...

We will see that in the final warm up match tonight after which the line up for the main event will be decided :)

Pfft, almost beat us. We were just giving the lower order a chance. We're an equal opportunity team ;)

You can never deny the fact that we were better than you and it was just a margin where your side outsmarted us and that mattered us!

absolutely abismal bowling from myself against India. hopefully I won't bowl that bad in future. Looking forward to the start of the season lets get it off with a winning start eh?

Don't worry.. We are all facing tough times in bowling department. T20 format is always an enemy for the bowlers. Lets keep our confidence level high and march towards success. :)


And also I guess, we are now looking to overtake VV's post count in few days. Yesterday I told Funky over msn that we reached 200 and now we are about to make triple ton :) Excellent century in a day! :D Well done guys, lets keep up the spirits high and move forward. VV thread's post count is in danger is what i can feel :p
 
The thread has become so much active :eek:. We lost our last game to India :(. Suren we need to improve our bowling department. Why don't you try Amit Mishra ?

I knew your eyes would pop out after seeing the amount of posts here :p Amit Mishra is a good option. I think we can play him against Australia and SA tomorrow. What say??

As we tried to play without any foreign players, we were trying to play only with our own team bowlers. But Amit Mishra is what I was thinking to replace bladescape on the main event.

Ok then, we will make a try now,

1. Yusuf Pathan
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Shane Watson
8. Amit Mishra
9. Surendar
10. Burnsy1
11. Spinksy

How many internationals we are allowed to play per side in the match?
 
We are allowed to play 3 internationals.

Ok, we have some calculations to sort it out,

Option 1 :

If we include Yusuf Pathan in opening(had to see how he does in warm up game against India)

  • Exclude Watson and take Mishra/Ishant in bowling.
  • Include Watson, take Ishant alone and exclude Mishra in bowling.

Team for Main event tomrw,
1. Yusuf Pathan
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Surendar
8. Amit Mishra
9. Burnsy1
10. Spinksy
11. Ishant Sharma

or

1. Yusuf Pathan
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Watson
8. Surendar
9. Burnsy1
10. Spinksy
11. Ishant Sharma

Option 2 :

Lets not include Yusuf Pathan. We will have all the three --> Watson, Mishra and Ishant Sharma.

1. S.Watson
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Mishra
8. Surendar
9. Burnsy1
10. Spinksy
11. Ishant Sharma

You guys tell me which is better?
 
IMO We should go with this line up:-

1. Yusuf Pathan
2. funknath
3. ansariaamir_leo
4. Bibu07
5. lumb-yorkshire
6. Shalin hitter
7. Surendar
8. Amit Mishra
9. Burnsy1
10. Spinksy
11. Ishant Sharma

I and Yusuf can give a good start. Bibu and shalin is their in the middle order. IMO Amit Mishra can give some strength to the bowling department as his average is 12.
 
Ooook, it looks good to me too. We have to take one gamble and lets see how the chemistry works out,

Funky, can we have this in first post?

Also, we have to see the pitch conditions too before posting the team :)
 
we should strengthen the weakest side of our game the bowling so we should include Sharma and Mishra and i hopr i can break my duck spree against India in the next game

Don't worry.. It happens some time.. And you will come out with a crucial match winning knock :)
