How long is the rope for Kohli?

The king of chases fell flat while chasing a mere 200 change. He continues to be a sitting duck on pitches with movement. Goes awol when the heat is on even in home series. Pads his stats against hapless bowling on lifeless wickets. Puts yaari over team interests. Can he disprove doubters with sensible selection and a defining innings or two in the remaining 2 games?

How long is the rope for Team India? always seem to fluff chances that they get...

How long is the rope for Cricket? every team seems to be a bunch of sitting ducks away from home...

 

Some people need to be given this long rope so we'll see less flooding with such threads

Even though Kohli sucked in this game and is to blame partially for the defeat along with other bats, the 200 run chase can’t be termed as “mere 200 chase.”

 

 

This game wasn’t being played on a flat track. It was hard to chase and was taking place in South Africa. Again not defending players or Kohli but 200 in South Africa is never an easy chase. Toughest place to chase.

Yeah, not an easy chase. Was hoping he get the job done and deliver a famous win but it was not meant to be.

What rope specifically? The one about him being a great all conditions test batsman?  

One about him scoring in any difficult condition for once.

 

There is something common about conditions in WI 2011, SA tour of Ind 2015, India tour of Eng 2014, and Aus tour of India 2017 - all series had conditions where scoring 100-200 was getting difficult for the team and then there is one more thing common in all series.

And the fact that players who stood up and saved the team in the 2014 (rahane), 2015 (rahane) and 2017 series (kl rahul, rahane, pujara) are either benched or have their spots under pressure.

Things have become much worse after the addition of bevda Shastri. One has to be blind to not see the bias of the so called think tank.

Some Icfers are blaming Shashri for Kohlis failure in tests. Kumble didnt suck up. He is out. Why should Shashtri standup to Kohli?

Some icfers blame MSD for Kohlis failures in International limited over tourneys. Anyone who have watched live will say if it isnt MSD, Kohli has no idea where to put a fielder, forget bowling changes.

Some icfers blame format for Kohlis failure in IPL. Guy has ego issues there too with various players. Thre best t20 batsman in world and team finishes last

 

As long as there are those icfers, We will continue to suffer from mood swing of Klueless Kohli

Nice, I call him Krooked Kohli inspired by my favorite world leader, Krooked Klueless Kohli aka the KKK of Indian cricket. Sounds just about right.
