Temujin Khaghan Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Dhawan has been dropped mid-way in his last 3 overseas test series in fast bowling conditions (SA, Oz, NZ, Eng) ... England 2014, Australia 2014, South Africa 2018 do you think kohli will pick him in the squad to England later this year? P.S - I dont even want to discuss about Rohit Sharma the test batsman...

WC2011INDIA Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I actually feel that Dhawan would have come good in the 2nd test match as that pitch was like a subcontinent one. In England, we might get similar type of pitch in 1 or 2 games. It is for the team management and virat to see which type of pitch will suit his batting. This is what they got wrong in last two tests. Link to comment
Lannister Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 He resembles more like Dhoni with his batting, never really suited to bat on tough pitches. He can still do merry on flat tracks, but this is not the kind of players Indian team should be looking into. Support right players and you will get your result, like the last Test match.

SandeepMotta Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Should be no where near the Indian team, even for the ODIs rahul would be better over him. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Indian team good future and shikhar dhawan future doesnt go in same sentence Link to comment
Dada's Army Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 As long Rahul can't see the ball and Vijay is not performing consistently, Dhawan will be in the team or thereabouts. Link to comment

I will play Dhawan all day in ODI’s since he delivers in ICC games all the time. He has been our best bat many times in ODI’s. Regarding test, I will do the opposite and play others over him most times. Lets not mix ODI and test. I would keep Rahane out of ODI’s similarly but would play him over any other new guy in test matches any day as he is better than most in the world.

vvvslaxman Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Keep him in shorter formats and low bounce wickets. If there is some exaggerated bounce he is going to succumb to it. He just looks awkward against bounce. Link to comment
CG Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Dhawan is damn good odi player ,In test he has to sort his short ball issue .K.l Rahul for a opener is too loose outside off stump .Vijay is on his last legs .We need a settled pair I would open with Rahane in England.

Agree with everything barring the last part about Rahanr as opener. He is fine at where he is. If Pujara ever doesn’t bat at 3, only then I will move him to 3. For opener, either current openers play or we find another opener, Rahane shouldn’t be asked to open. Link to comment

Rahane has issues against spin .He has batted at no 3 for Mumbai.he has to open otherwise he will again loose his place at home Link to comment

We will worry about it when they come, for time being or next 9 test matches are away - In south afica and England where we will be battling against the fast bowlers more than spinners, so it doesn’t make sense dor Rahane or team mangement to start worrying about his spin game.

CG Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Last time Moeen Ali destroyed us in England.Pitches in England take turn.Rahane best bet is to open. Link to comment

Dhawan is an ATG ODI opener, even better than Kohli because of his freakish record in ICC tournaments. Rahul has a place in all formats, in ODIs he should play in the middle order. Link to comment

Rightarmfast Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 /\ Exactly what I had said earlier too. Dhawan is good in subcontinent. We are wasting a position giving him a chance. Link to comment
