Sidhoni Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Made his debut 4 years ago in the last test of previous BG trophy at home. Is on his captaincy debut 4 years later. Excellent first day for him as Aus are bowled out on day 1. How do you rate him? For me personally I would'nt look too much into Ranchi test as that was sudden and he had no idea he'd be leading the side. Looked like working on his instincts and also has a knack of chopping and changing things quickly. beetle 1 Link to comment

zen Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I would not read too much into stand in captains. A test captain is someone who has been appointed to lead the side for a long term Ravi Shastri captained Ind in tests too Link to comment
beetle Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Too early to say,but he did well on the first day. He has done well in LOIs in the past too although against weaker teams but he also lead weaker team. sscomp32 1 Link to comment
Sidhoni Posted March 27, 2017 Author Share Posted March 27, 2017 BUMP Our best bowling performance of the series comes under him sscomp32 1 Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Wonderful captaincy. India were still aggressive without going over the top. Strategically was very good, and the bowlers definitely backed him! sscomp32, BCCI and beetle 3 Link to comment
Pollack Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 He was bad last match.Okayish this. But overall not much to judGE so soon. I like his field placements and approach in general(middle ground between attacking and defense according to situation). Lord 1 Link to comment

BeautifulGame Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Was excellent today.Very positive and pro active. But to be fair it's kinda easier to be urself when u r just stand in captain. sscomp32 1 Link to comment
kosingh Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Excellent. Seems to have that awareness and instinct beetle 1 Link to comment
Bleed-Blue Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Much better than Kohli in terms of using reviews thats for sure sscomp32 and beetle 2 Link to comment

C'mon.....he had to come in as a captain at short notice for the decider.If he loses.....he will be the one getting all the blame. He must be under more pressure than Kohli would have been because Kohli is riding a longish success wave and would have been forgiven. G_B_ and CG 2 Link to comment
speedheat Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Was excellent today as well as in the first innings, his bowling changes were spot on as well Now we have intelligent vc to backup kohli Link to comment
rahulrulezz Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Luckily bowlers supported him. Or else I didn't much energy on the field in the first innings. Also, getting first innings lead and crucial breakthroughs in 2nd innings at the top helped him a lot. In short he he was decent, but tbf bit low on energy. Link to comment
