Alright, Kohli is a fan of 5 bowling attack. Is his team balanced in such a way is capable of producing results? If yes, should he have gone with 3 spinners rather than 3 seamers? Is dropping Pujara at the behest of Rohit Sharma, a call in the right direction?
In the context of rubbing energy and aggression to all players, has Kohli, made a critical change in the just one-off test match? I would certainly say yes to this. To me, the future of Ishant Sharma is completely at stake and with a dead pitch such as the one played at Fatullah, Karn Sharma could have been a better attacking option. What has happened is that too many overs got consumed by operating the seamers at one end and little they did to impress the fact that they are capable of taking 20 wickets in this Test match. Thus 8 wickets fell to spinners and the 3 seamers combined could muster only 1 wicket.
But I did like the attacking field set by the captain. It is still his early days and too much should not be said at such a short notice..
The person who impressed me most was Ashwin. The way, he looped the ball everytime, showed that he has now got back his original style of off-spin bowling. I have'nt seen him bowling the carrom ball. Bhajji did not impress me at all. He got away with some poor line and length balls and if he continues in same vein, we will be seeing the last of him shortly.
From Bangldesh's perspective, I like the batting of Litton Das. He reminded me of Roy Dias of Sri Lanka. He has got a perfect defense technique and I am sure that he has got a great career ahead of him.
