Gollum Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Worrying, might have to play 3 openers in Eng if this goes on. Relieved we aren't touring there in early summer, else we would have had a repeat of summer of 42. Link to comment
Garuda Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I was a huge pujara fan in 2013-14 when he made the century in SA. but now he is a headache. India might start thinking of Dhawan as a replacement and Rahul at 3. Either way these jokers are no match for Andy and Barbie. LORD_analyst 1 Link to comment

India might start thinking of Dhawan as a replacement and Rahul at 3. Either way these jokers are no match for Andy and Barbie. he couldn't even put away half-volleys for cover drives.....very restrictive player ......only knows how to play on side......in sena countries he will be peppered with bowling outside the off-stump.....also he is suseptible to bouncers..

rtmohanlal Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Selectors should keep in mind that both Dravid & Ganguly straight away hit big in ENG when conditions were far tougher in 90s.So they should follow the same with talented rookies in the coming ENG tour and keep away this tried and tested failure Che-po out of the team LORD_analyst and Garuda 2 Link to comment

YCCC Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Fortunately for India he'll he playing in a team where some players actually score a few runs in the Test series. Link to comment
Gollum Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Play this batting lineup in Eng: Vijay Rahul Dhawan Kohli Rahane Pandya Saha Ashwin.. No Rohit please, if someone gets injured play Nair or Karthik. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 vihari n nair shud be taken to A tour of england and hopefully both pile on runs Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 vihari n nair shud be taken to A tour of england and hopefully both pile on runs Nair IMO is poor against moving ball, Vihari could be a good option. Garuda 1 Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Nair IMO is poor against moving ball, Vihari could be a good option. nair has a lot of quality, he needs to work on tightening his game...... A tour will also give us an idea whom to prefer among 2 or may be both arent good currently Edited April 29, 2018 by Ankit_sharma03 Link to comment

A tour will also give us an idea whom to prefer among 2 or may be both arent good currently Nair failed royally in two previous A tours, made a good score in only one innings. Vihari hasn't been to many A tours, should be judged after that. Link to comment
Gollum Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Nair IMO is poor against moving ball, Vihari could be a good option. IMO more than moving ball Nair has issues against genuine pace 145+. I don't see any Pom bowler bowling at that pace. Link to comment

I don't see any Pom bowler bowling at that pace. nair is still one the best upcoming batsman, imagine how poor are others at this point i find nair n vihari next best for middle order.......may be gill in few yrs and my point is he has quality so investment shud be done on him Edited April 29, 2018 by Ankit_sharma03 Gollum 1 Link to comment

But my opinion is that he is of the category similar to Rohit and Dhawan who will do very well in home tests but will continue to perform poor outside. If we are to start winning overseas we need to find batsmen who have potential to score abroad. Link to comment

If we are to start winning overseas we need to find batsmen who have potential to score abroad. Rohit n dhawan have quality but they didnt graduate to the test level.Dhawan was the highest scorer in NZ test series mean he can but may be white ball cricket has its side effects and rohit never had that hunger in him for greatness Now lets see with nair as well, he may fail may succeed......not being in contention for LOI may lead him to only concentrate on test Forever Indian 1 Link to comment
Austin 3:!6 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I wont read much into it....Batting in England is not easy now at this time of the year. The entire Pakistan team got all out for 168 the other day against Kent. Link to comment

The entire Pakistan team got all out for 168 the other day against Kent. Pakistan batting is one of these worst batting lineups, it is no wonder they got all out for 168, Pujara at best has been mediocre away from India. I don't think he has done much in county cricket all these years. Link to comment
