Big names should have smashed 190+,200+ totals in every T20I games of WC, their reputations are becomming like our multidimmensional players ordinary stats in big games and its getting repeated every time.
This is nonsense. No team every has smashed 199+, 200+ totals in every T20I game in the WC.
Replacing successful players with failures is not a solution to solve the failures of domestic successes. Domestic failures are worse than domestic successes. There is no logical reason for domestic failures to work.
Notice also, that to be an allrounder, you need to be able to hit over 140 SR. Without that, you are a liability as a batsman, allrounder or specialist. Maybe one can reduce it a bit to 135 if you are a very good bowler. But, the likes of Iyer and Tewatia bat very slowly.
T20 is about creating excess resources. You have only 20 overs. Someone who bats at a SR of 150 or 170 creates balls for others to hit off. If they can lost their fair share (which is why an average of 25 is desirable), then you start to have the combination for a winning team.
The team needs a wholesale new outlook. Just replacing players who bat slowly by players who cannot really bowl an over in the likes of Dube and Iyer and calling them "multidimensional" or some other stupid terms does not make them champions. We need true allrounders. Not nonsense relabeled. That is what PR people do and it often results in garbage.
