Tibarn Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 With our luck, ABD will get selected for our Test series in SA and score a triple century. Link to comment

mancalledsting Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 ABDV skipped test series against good bowling attacks on difficult tracks (NZ and England) to preserve his stock and batting average. He's happy to return against a perceived inferior attack in Team India. I hope Indian bowlers give him a good hiding.....I've lost all respect for this guy. No wonder South Africa has a habit of repeatedly choking...when this guy is your 'best player'. Im surprised that a lot current and ex players putting him in their all time test XIs...give me a break. sandeep 1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 We are doomed. Won't be surprised if his buddy Kohli coerced him to come back, they behave like besties on SM these days. Aa bail, mujhe maar !!! Link to comment
nevada Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Sensible decision. Hope he has a productive couple of years(except when playing against us ) before bowing out. Link to comment

putrevus Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I thought at last we had a chance to beat SA away but this changes whole thing. GoldenSun and Gollum 2 Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 ABDV is such a chicken. He had all the tools to be an ATG batsman but now he picks and chooses opponents based on bowling strengths and venues. Also he is a choke artiste. Better the likes of Kohli don't spend much time with this coward, hope our batters have better role models to look up to eg Smith. GoldenSun and Sidhoni 1 1 Link to comment

He was overworked and overtaxed because of his all round greatness.SA abused him by making him wicket keeper.They also made him fill all the other important roles. He was their closer in ODIS.
