Ashwin or jadeja in 1st 20 against pakistan?

I wonder why Dhoni did not put Ashwin in the last game. He is such a talented spinner and along with it he is a young player who is able to sweep out the game with both bat and ball but still why did he did it. May be Dhoni have some other arguments to support him. Any I hope he will make use of the game changer in the game.

Hi sakhijan, The way India played the first T 20, it wouldnt have mattered if Ashwin played or not. from 77 for no loss at end of 10th over to 125 for 9, no one player can make you win from there. Mr. Kumar did his work and gave India very good start but then pakis played responsibly and got the work done. So even fi Ashwin was there, it wouldnt have made much difference. Yes if India has scored 153, then we would have had some chance.

Well, it is no point going on talking about Ashwin vs Jadeja debate. Things could have been better or worse otherwise also. T 20 is a short game, and things can change suddenly. So, we cannot say that keeping or not keeping someone would make a major difference or not.
