India have fought back well in this series to win after Bangladesh went 1-0 up in the series. We all know how good India is but we have seen that Bangladesh will be a real contender in the T20 World Cup when it comes around, India I think still needs to work on their team before then as they do have some weaknesses in their team that they could improve on. Right now Australia look the dominate team in this form of the game.

Jozi Stars. who were the champion in the last league Mzansi,  has lost the 2nd match and are at the bottom of the table with zero points. They were beaten by the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants convincingly yesterday. Just for your knowledge that Chris Gayle is playing for the Jozi but still they are on the losing side.

Chris Gayle scored 17 in the first match and 18 in the last match yesterday. No doubt he has gone old but the power with which he hits is still more than many present day cricketers. You never know in which match he gets form back and got going.

Now its time for Bangladesh to think about future and bring some new talent as they also have BPL which is not bad at all Tamim and Shakib was backbone but now they are past they have to look future and if they able to bring few good players like Naim this could be very helpful for them.

After this T20 series the Deepak chahar jump is ranking to 88 in T20 bowling because he played only 7 T20 intarnationl games and taken 14 wickets with best bowling performance is 6/7. i am sure that he will play for india long time.

To put it frankly, I don't think that any spots are available right now in the national team. Chahar got an opportunity to play, only because senior players such as Mohammad Shami and Jasprit Bumrah were unavailable. He may get some T20 matches every now and then, but I guess he may need to wait for a few years to break in to the ODI/Test squad.

And it is not just Shami/Bumrah. Apart from these two, there is Ishant Sharma and Umesh Yadav. The Indian player pool is so big, that now many of the quality players are even finding it difficult to get selected for the domestic sides (and don't forget the fact that India has a total of 37 domestic first class teams). The competition for the spots has reached its zenith. 

There is another important spot. That of the wicket keeper. Currently Rishabh Pant seems to have cemented his spot, with KL Rahul as the second choice keeper. There are a lot of younger players competing for this spot, including Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, Ankush Bains and Srikar Bharat. I would say that the competition for this spot is the toughest right now in the Indian XI.

That's how i look at this

Seamers :

1. Bumrah : Go to bowler for all 3 format
2. Shami : Solid for ODI and Test. we might see him in 15 men squad for T-20 world cup
3. Ishant : Still got some juice left for at least next 2-3 years for the Test match. we are not going to see him at Shorter format ever. may be IPL
4. Bhuvi : Solid for all 3 format but missing games due to tough competition.
5. Umesh : Good for Test format. missed the train of Shorter format, i doubt if selectors going back to him ever. unless they are smoking some strong stuff.

6. Chahar : Good for short format and would like to see him more in upcoming New Zealand series next year
7. Navdeep Saini : same as above
8. Khaleel : The only reason management giving him chances because he is left arm seamer. good performer for India A though.
9. Mohammed Siraj :  He needs to prove himself on consistent basis.

Then there are some good seam bowlers in Domestic cricket these 3 names comes to my mind right now

10. Avesh Khan : Work in progress product
11. Shivam Mavi : Work in progress product
12. K Nagarkoti : If he work on his fitness/injuries then he's the top contender for Seamers and can get direct entry in the Indian squad without any doubt. his fielding is cherry on top

Jeez that's a long list and i am sure i forgot at-least 3-4 domestic seamers.

Spinners

1. Ashwin : Solid for Home Test series and In squad for away tour. ODI and T-20 career finished
2. Jadeja : Solid for All 3 format and i see him in T-20 WC Squad as an all rounder
3. Kuldeep : Future of Indian spin, struggling to secure place in the squad because of new formula " Deep batting line up"
4. Chahal : Good for Shorter format
5. W. Sunder : Handy bowler who can bat, he's new bit n pieces example

Then there are some average off spin bowlers. It worrisome news for India that they are not able to produce any quality wrist spinners.

All rounder

India is not producing good all rounders as well. they are trying hard but its not enough imho.
 
1. Hardik : He is very good but not consistent at all.
2. Aksar Patel : he's promising but not doing any justice with his talent.
3. S. Dubey : He made quite a good reputation for himself in Domestic Cricket but new in International cricket, let's see.
4. Krunal : He's okay bowler in T-20 and can bat for sure.

Jadeja is good example and in Test format Ashwin can say " I know how to bat"

Well.. very detailed. Regarding the pacers, I still don't understand why bowlers like Siraj and Khaleel are getting selected over Shami. If the intention is to reduce the workload, then I don't agree. If the management wants to rest him, then they should do a rotational selection policy for tests, just like what the Australians are doing. Keeping good bowlers out of T20 is not the right thing to do. It is actually irritating to see Khaleel getting selected again and again after repeated bad performances.

BTW, I was surprised to see the name of Kamlesh Nagarkoti. He hasn't played any cricket for the last 2 years and I really doubt whether we'll ever see him on action again. From what I have heard, he has changed his bowling action to avoid a repetition of the injury (by making it more side-on). But the problem is that when you change your bowling action, then it is not always very effective. This is what happened with Mfuneko Ngam. 

Tomorrow we have a first t20 match between Afghanistan VS West Indies this time Afghanistan can have any chance to win t20 series because Afghanistan t20 squad have good all-rounders players compared with West indies please share your thoughts here.
