Khota Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Too early. He should definitely get the next test also. Link to comment
sarcastic Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Just now, Khota said: Too early. He should definitely get the next test also. He should play the entire series and not just the next test. And let us see his performances before holding the gun. Link to comment

asterix Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I’ve said many times...For his fans he has been many times KLPD Rahul... sourab10forever, flamy, zen and 3 others 6 Link to comment
Clarke Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) He deserves more chances but let me add this: if he's so damn good as is suggested here, he shouldn't be throwing his wicket away and taking his time to settle down. Life often isn't fair and u gotta make sure your chances don't go for nothing. Edited August 2, 2018 by Clarke velu, Stradlater, Brainfade and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
CG Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 He should play the entire series and not just the next test. And let us see his performances before holding the gun. He played 2 tests in sa looked out of place prodding outside off same here.he needs to go back and work on his game. velu 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) he should gett next test and no more. He has exposed in England, SA etc. Either he will deliver or he wont. No one deserves endless chances. I think he will do good the next time. Edited August 2, 2018 by Khota velu and beetle 2 Link to comment
asterix Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 He won’t get more chances. Unfortunately there’s tough comparison out there.As he’s demonstrated that he lacks patience, would be good if he resigns to his fate and focus on LOI cricket and leave test cricket for those who have more patience to stay in the middle.

zen Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 KL needs to pick up his game. Can’t afford to waste chances Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 He is the next Aravinda de Silva. Now you won't find a more inconsistent and crazy impulsive batsman than the Lankan but at his best he would make Sachin and Lara look second class. KLR needs to be supported, that is what great captains like Pataudi or Dada would have done. Kohli's captaincy will be judged on the basis of whether he can mentor and groom the next gen players...it is as much a challenge for VK as it is for KLR. zen and Stradlater 2 Link to comment

asterix Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Maybe give him chances in lesser series. Can’t take risk of him doing apprenticeship on crucial series like this... Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Anyone who bats at No 3 will be compared with Dravid as far as Indian replacements are concerned. But it's not fair to compare him to R D as of now. Having said that, he needs a good series here after a massive flop in SA. Rahul in SA: 4 innings 30 runs at average of 7.50. But then we had Yuvraj Singh who averaged 4 runs on test tour of Australia and he made two or 3 comebacks. So not that bad. Here he has started with average of 4 runs. Needs to average better if he has to be even considered for next series. Link to comment
Rasgulla Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 He is not from bambi. He won't be given that many chances by bunty and co. Link to comment

The Realist Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Rahul needs a longer run but is going to have to score some runs soon. If he is as talented as people say then batting position should not matter that much and impact on his run scoring. Might just be initial impressions but Rahul gives off the vibe that he is more comfortable in limited overs cricket and does not inspire the same levels of confidence when at the crease playing tests.

Straight Drive Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Same batsmen wills core 150+, 200+ or even the rare 300 in Indian conditions. Stick with Vijay, Shikhar and Rahul. Atleast we know they will be like lions in jungle in Indian conditions even though they will be fish out of water in SA. Cant see anyone else apart from Virat who could ahve done well in SA apart from whom we have tried or could have been tried. Switchblade 1 Link to comment

Honestly, I feel like the hype and the fame went too much into his head- he's more interested in the commercial aspect of playing cricket than doing well. Bunty might make us believe that Rahul is some special talent yada yada, but the end of the day-the excessive hype he's receiving is gonna backfire on him if he plays poorly.Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Stradlater and Suhaan 2 Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 KL will rise guys. He batted like a fool today but he will rise. UrmiSinhaRay and Adi_91 2 Link to comment
