surely panesar a matchwinner?

Question

what are england doing IF they want to win, giles could'ny turn the ball if his life depended on it, they have only kept him in because he can score 20 whereas panesar cant. who agrees, give your views.

Answer 1

I agree Panesar should be picked instead of Giles..but even if he'd been playing in the last two tests I dont believe it would have altered the result.

Panesar is not yet a proven "matchwinner" at all, he's just had a few good games is all..and I fear the Aussies would really look to attack his bowling from the start to demoralise him. Giles is at least used to all of that already.

Answer 2

I strongly agree with you that Monty Panesar would have fared much better than Giles and he should have been an automatic choice for the 2nd test.

Answer 3

If panesar was playing well he could snare a few wickets, but he is alot less economical.

The english selectors chose giles to keep the run rate down and then they hoped to get wickets with swing like last year.

Answer 4

Panesar is surely a match winner. i think he must replace Giles. 20 runs doesnt match with priceless wicket taken at an important time.

Answer 5

Coming to Ashes Series they were worried about their bating now when the batsman are showing some resistence i think they should go for panesar but whoever they pick will be destroyed by Aussies

Answer 6

Panesar has long long way to go before he comes close to leading bowlers like Vettori. Sadly, he's the best England has got.

Answer 7

well yes, that jatt, (chak the phata dam ka kilia) only for people from southeast asia.

Answer 8

Answer 9
