Ravi Bishnoi didn't even get a full season under Rajasthan Royals this IPL season. In the later half of IPL, Yash Raj Punja was the first choice leggie for Rajasthan Royals over Ravi Bishnoi.

Bishnoi has been having a rough patch for a couple of years now. He got released by LSG as they preferred Digvesh over him earlier too.

How does the management justify his selection in the national T20 team?

1. Batters

2. Bowlers

3. All rounders

4. Teams

The transition from T20 to tests and then to ODIs, all within a span of 20 days as a player and as a captain has been amazing and smooth.

28(41) with the bat and picked up 3 wickets after conceding just 21 runs in 15.5 over with 7 maidens so far. He was easily our best bowler today, he was almost unplayable.

GT picked Sai Sudarshan at base price of 20 lakhs in 2022 after he had a good season for Lyca Kovai Kings in 2021. Surprising that no other team even bid once for him in that auction in 2022.

It's also surprising that CSK didn't go for him considering his performances in their local league TNPL.

GT's 20 lakhs investment in him has proven to be one of the best investments till now.

The strike rate has saturated and infact been declining slowly over past few years while the average has seemed to be declining at a much faster rate.

What do you guys think is the reason for this?

We never learn from our mistakes. The fielding has been dogsh*t. Will be the reason we lose today for sure.

That NRR save is the reason our spot is fixed at No 2 today. If they had gone for the humongous chase and collapsed in the process our NRR would've taken a huge dent and could've slipped to No 3 today thereby losing a chance to play Q1.

Today RCB is playing to save their NRR to secure top 2 spot and I'm sure they won't get hate from their fans for that.

Clearly one of the most consistent teams out there. Won trophy in their debut season, runners up in the second season and have missed qualifying only once in 5 seasons.

GT is all about consistently nailing the basics with a bowling heavy side. It also helps they've got some of the most consistent batters in the league.
