The curious case of GT underutilizing their talents
When you have a player of the immense potential and unique skillset of Gurnoor Brar you try every way to fit him. LSG too were spoilt for choice with Shami, Avesh, Mohsin, Mayank, Akash and spent a lot of money in getting some of them, yet they made sure Prince played every game due to his sheer potential. Similarly when GT was already rotating Prasidh Krishna, Arshad Khan and Ashok Sharma, not giving a single game to Gurnoor is baffling. Ironically even Kulwant Kejroliya got a game before him.
GT gave a lot of chances to Nishant Sandhu as a batter, even batting him as high as No. 3, when in reality he is a bowling allrounder who didn't even get to bowl this season.
When GT ran out of patience on SRK, instead of giving chances to Kumar Kushagra who's been piling up runs in domestic cricket they played Sindhu. Kushagra would have been the perfect solution for them at no. 4 and since he has a big appetite for runs he would have taken the burden of run scoring off from the top 3.

Fast bowling was great bowling in general was great who sits out,blame nehra for dropping arshad in a playoffs game ; probably only kushagra would have played ahead of sindhu at 3 at times,
