Are kohli and Shastri planning to embarrass us in front of whole world in WC 19

[raki05]

I don't blame Raina, Dhoni, Pandey or rahane coz as a player they would always wants to play. Hack even yuvi, bhajji and pujara gives statement everly now and then to play in wc19. But as a captain and coach they are intentionally planning to embarrass us.

[SK_IH]

These meaningless victories in bilaterals haven't helped either,these give more impunity to these buffoons,if we win this series as well we will have status quo till the WC

[Deleted_User_1]

Yes instead of playing kirkut, they will put on a show on the pitch center stage at Lords. Kohli-Shastri-Jharkhandi threesome!

[velu]

thought of creating a thread that "we are the favorites for 2019 wc "

[rkt.india]

Dhoni already did a similar thing in 2015 wc SF.

I think selectors are powerless. There must be a some sort of pressure from BCCI officials. They want to go with the super stars to get the most out of the revenues. MSK Prasad was pretty vocal against Dhoni in his early days and then he suddenly became a wimp. It's captain and the coach who are the real boss in Indian cricket.

There should be a body who overrides the decisions made by the captain and coach is such situations,there seems no end to it, I don't see raina,dhoni etc to go even after wc 19,there was a poster who suggested spectators shouldnt attend matches when these are playing,i know its not practical,but we are left with only this option,no revenues no free rides,

During CT some pak commentator said one needs 3 good deliveries to win against India. Rohit, Dhawan and Kohli get them under 75 and game is yours. Still holds good and will continue to till we get solid 5 and 6. 

 

If today at 5 and 6 we had yuvi and dhoni of '07 no one would have been able to beat us.

Yes,we'll be embarrassed badly and our kaptaan,coach won't pay two hoots and we'll see smiles ,laugh and giggles despite the misery

True ,our middle order is non existent ,we are carried our solely by the top 3 (Raul is a good addition though) ,sadly the ship had sailed long ago ,now we can't try youngsters like pant and we'll continue with this same middle order throughout the wc

The guy came up with the worst excuses when we lost continuously on the road for 3 years under him. I doubt he has the shame to retire, he'll have to be kicked out but our no name selectors don't have the cojones to do that to him.

There's still a lot of time left before the world cup and it doesn't take much for youngsters to outperform him as the bar is set so low.

Seeing the current  situation even a 2 months time seems more than enough to groom a more deserving one

Yeah.. the legendary statement "we don't have any readymade players". At this stage even a gully cricketer offers more resistance than this coward.

Of course ,there's still time ,I was talking from the team management ,selectors' perspective .they don't have the balls to make such a move

Yes. People at the stadium were pissed off at his approach and meek surrender.

Now that 10k is over her can please retire it was a poor innings.  Pant or ishan even if they failed would have showed some intent and learnt something in the process.
