Just like the first t20 will screw us for the next year in t20s ;(

It should be if Kohli follows same protocol that was followed once Rahane came back after Karun's 300.

[Ankit_sharma03]

Why is it even a question

1. which 2 batsman would u like to see as opener against SA Attack................and u have ur answer

[SUMO]

I would like all 3 to open simultaneously on a triangular pitch

[Gollum]

As such Kohli is pretty high on my hate list. If he plays Dhawan/Rohit he will topple Dhoni from the no 1 spot. 

[Lannister]

How the * did Dhawan even came into the contention? His overseas records are nothing short of pathetic and if we play politics again, expect another miserable round of overseas tour. But this time fans are going to lose complete interest. 

[Oldhere]

Based on what i have seen from Kohli/Shastri in ODI's/T20, dont be surprised if you see Dhawan and Vijay opening with Rahul on bench.

[fineleg]

This is a stupid decision to persist with Dhawan who will score against SL, and flop against SA.

Team News:

India

Virat Kohli all but confirmed that Shikhar Dhawan will continue to hold down his spot and open with KL Rahul, which resigns Murali Vijay to the bench. Based on how the two training sessions prior to the game have gone, it looks likely that Bhuvneshwar Kumar will take up the spot left vacant by Hardik Pandya.

Slips practice catches in South Africa!!

[maniac]

Axis of Evil strikes again...even though technically one member is missing here

[wanted_desi]

This what is going to happen in South Africa before Vijay gets back. 

 

Rabadda to Dhawan, OUT, Pitches it up from round the stumps, Dhawan pushes forward at it, and it moves away slightly in the air to hit the edge and it is a simple catch to First Slip, Alma makes no mistakes.

 

Philander to Dhawan, OUT,  went for a hard push, results in a thick outside edge towards second slip, these South Africans don't drop many there, Faf De Plessis gets his big hands securely around the ball, Dhawan has to go.

 

Rabadda to Dhawan, OUT, whoah, that was outstanding from Rabada, big movement away after pitching outside leg, Dhawan forced to play, nicks it through to third slip, a low catch taken by Cook, and there's the first breakthrough

 

Phildaner to Dhawan, OUT, superbly taken by De Kock!  Philander pushes the length up, gets it to deviate just enough to catch the edge of Dhawan's bat.. He was looking to push tentatively.. The edge would have gone to first slip but De Kock dives to his left to pluck out a one-hander.

[Nonbeliever]

[Gollum]

* Dhawan in place of Vijay !!!!! Sure this clown will score lots of runs here and boot MV out of the side. We will effectively start every innings in SA at 0/1 after 1 over. This is utter stupidity. 

[Vk1]

Shocked dumbstruck and flabbergasted...add  other jargons. How the frock can you drop the most consistent opener across conditions  in the world.

[Mosher]

Dhawan ahead of Vijay.  Shocking if true. 

[putrevus]

Dhawan was emergency call up in SL , he should remain as backup as we know he is going get squared up the moment he sees Steyn and Philander. 

 

He can hit three triple hundreds in this series but it won't change my mind he needs to sit.Kohli is out of his mind if he think he is going to play well in SA.

 

WTH is Akash Chopra smoking .
