lamellavig Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Why do Indian fans in particular, adore defensive cricket? They see it as an achievement to be a defensive team. Mediocrity appears to be the ideal. How else can you defend the stupid goons who clamour for Dinesh Karthik over Rishabh Pant? Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 It is Kohli who is preferring Karthik over Pant in LOIs and it is because he doesn't believe in youngsters. Fans mostly prefer swashbuckling players over defensive bats especially in LOIs. In ICF also most would like to see Pant atleast in T20s but Kohli and Shastri have other ideas.

Sandeep99 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I would recommend you to understand the nuances of first class/test cricket before commenting. From whatever I saw, I remember how Rishabh Pant was made to look like a fool during Ranji final when a certain Rajneesh Gurbani was probing outside off stump all day. abc, UrmiSinhaRay, AK007 and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment

But Dinesh Karthik has a much lower first class average than Pant. Clearly, DK is made to look like a fool more often. But due to your compromised intelligence (i.e. stupidity), you are unable to comprehend such a logical, scientific and deductive chain of reasoning to arrive at this conclusion. philcric 1 Link to comment

Your opinion is an indicator of compromised intelligence. There is literally no logical reasoning to support Karthik over Pant. Selection of Karthik has much greater associated opportunity costs.

I can go on and say Rishabh Pant is one of those one season wonders who disappear after being worked out. Going by your logic, Adam Voges should be a better batsman than Sachin Tendulkar, no? After all, the former averages more than the latter. But hey it's ok. Let me not get my compromised intelligence in your way. Off I go. abc and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

The lack of your comprehension skills is utterly astounding. I might comment on cricket but will never comment on this thread again though Link to comment

Your logic has no basis. Your reasoning is very poor, and appears to be biased. You seem to have very compromised cognition Link to comment

putrevus Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I don't understand the stupid logic behind giving gloves to Karthik again in tests.Pants or Kishan have to groomed to take over and Afghanistan would have been perfect situation to give one of them a game. Karthik is/was always suspect mentally, no one ever questioned his talent ever that is he was given debut earlier than Dhoni but there is is a reason why he never could claim a permanent position. I was okay with him in T20s as he will not have lot of time to think and can just react but tests even if he is good he will last two years then what will do, you start the search again. I am angry at Kohli, he needs to give younger talent a chance to blossom not himself in cocoon among older players. Laaloo and Garuda 2 Link to comment

Sorry I have no faith in Karthik especially if he is a wicket keeper.If he is not a keeper he adds no value to the team. Link to comment

I'm not convinced about Pant and others yet. He is just 20. The OP needs to chill UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

The OP needs to chill Parthiv Patel was 17 when he made his debut, Sachin was 16, I don't think age should hinder selection.Karthik had his chances ,there is a chance of this kid will losing his confidence and we might end up losing a real talent. I have not seen infusion of fresh talent from this selection committee and they keep going back to these TTFs. Link to comment
