  20. Sham Job says:

    lack of consistant middle order batsmen is the problem of Kcohi Tuskers. why the selectors are not picked the players[ middle order batsmen like Youvi, Raina,] suitable to indian conditons. The ticket rate is too high. Any way all the best to Tuskers.

  21. Achayan says:

    hi friends,

    Laxman
    McCullum
    should open the innings for Tuskers.

    Laxman should keep the wicket and give strike to the partner.
    He has the experiance as an opener.
    Dont bring him in middle he may waste the balls…let him waste the balls of the opener bowler.

    McCullum and Laxman are very good runners between the wickets.

    Jayawardene
    should be the next …

    He could give a steady start for tuskers.
    Laxman expected in the crease
    [Both should bat till 10 th Over.]

    Parthiv Patel
    steven smith
    Owais SHA
    Jadeja

    -> any new indian youngster

    Sreeshanth
    Vinay Kumar
    RP singh

    7 batsmen
    5 Bowlers

    This team is really balanced….good work Geoff Lawson

    Best of Luck Kochi Tuskers.
