Instead of this bell swap like broad would be good
Not happening if Rohit, Rahul and Kohli just plays test cricket for next two years. Give up on white ball cricket. Rahul and Iyer were unbelievably good after their injury, but we need fresh approach towards 2027. As I said, we have good enough players to take it on. Just invest in them with Pant/Samson/Pandya as a captain and Sunder or Rinkoo Singh as finisher. We need to move away from Kuldeep Yadav as well. We need to invest in Ravi Bishnoi and find out few fast bowlers who can consistently bowl at 135+ in short spells.India's loss is likely to aggravate the downfall of ODI cricket.
Some boys crying for this Trophy and This guys chilling....
I was not referring to India alone, but overall, towards ODI as a format in international cricket; the interest of cricket boards, players and spectators towards this format, as well as of broadcasters and advertisers/sponsors.Not happening if Rohit, Rahul and Kohli just plays test cricket for next two years.

One of the consistent downfalls had been because of dependence on certain players here the case was Rohit and Virat playing consistently well and hiding the inadequacies of other players. If we had been 20-3 in at least 2-3 matches we would have certainly found out the consistency of pressure on Rahul, Jadeja and Iyer and the same with bowling on Mohd Shami . The other reason being the deteriorating standards of teams other than Australia . England, New Zealand to some extent South Africa which had been lot like India found wanting in Knock out matches . I guess in times to come the teams had to perform not depending on certain players and this can be done with rotation of players with key players sitting out and the lesser ones taking the mantle in knock out matches.Not happening if Rohit, Rahul and Kohli just plays test cricket for next two years.

Rotation has hardly happened, thats why we failed. Last decade or so, we are highly dependent on Rohit+Kohli+Dhawan. Rahul is so talented that he could have broken a lot of records, but due to this top three he didn't get chance in ODI cricket as well as test cricket as we gone back to Gambhir but not players like Rahul, Panchal, Easwaran(Similar things happened when we went back to Parthiv, Dinesh Kartik and many others). We need consistent selection to give freedom to players and sometimes rest against small teams like Bangladesh, Windies, Zimbabwe and West Indians. There was no need for Rohit and Kohli to play useless West Indies series. We could have given chance to New players like Ruturaj and Easwaran but it was not meant to be. Even Samson, Dhull, Aparajith for that matter, but it was not meant to be.One of the consistent downfalls had been because of dependence on certain players here the case was Rohit and Virat playing consistently well and hiding the inadequacies of other players.

I don't know but the performance's can be linked to pay and selection ( I had detailed this in one of my earlier posts) although it will be too complex it is doable quantitatively eliminating the selectors role and players automatically selecting themselves without bias and all the eleven players taking the responsibilities to perform and get the best chance to perform and win. Being a team game it looks somewhat unbelievable or so but can at least give this a try.Rotation has hardly happened, thats why we failed.

This thing won't help and put lot of pressure on players and players like Rahul and Iyer won't perform.I don't know but the performance's can be linked to pay and selection ( I had detailed this in one of my earlier posts) although it will be too complex it is doable quantitatively eliminating the selectors role and players automatically selecting themselves without bias and all the eleven players taking the responsibilities to perform and get the best chance to perform and win.
