SecondSlip Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Kohli is backing youngsters like Rahul, Pandya, Vihari, Shaw, Pant etc, in test cricket but doing the complete opposite in LOIs where he is backing oldies like Rayudu, Karthik, Dhoni, Raina, Jadhav. What is he trying to achieve? UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
Nikola Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 In Odis you need winning mentality which youngsters don't have. SecondSlip, raki05, GolGappe and 5 others 1 6 1 Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) Kohli was not supporting youngsters all these years in all formats. In fact got Siraj playing T20s on basis of his Ranji 4-day performances, etc. In LOIs as we are getting decent results he hasn't felt the pinch yet, but in tests with losses overseas he is left with no choice due to the media and experts backlash. So only from Eng test series he has started becoming open to youngsters in test format. Edited October 5, 2018 by Forever Indian UrmiSinhaRay, beetle, mishra and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment

Sgattick10 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Cos Dhoni is the actual captain in ODIs. Completely dominated by CSK players. Lannister, Frustrated, Laaloo and 2 others 5 Link to comment
putrevus Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 The people who played both in SA and England deserved to play ahead of any youngsters.Only Shaw should have played against England last two tests.Shaw definitely was not scoring hundred on debut if he played fourth test.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
CSK Fan Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Kohli and dhoni PR have come to a compromise where dhoni can use the odi team as his jageer, have his player, highlight himself in the match and the media. In return he will provide his power and lobby behind kohli. Kohli will use test for his own fiefdom and publicity /@urmisinharay mode The Dark Horse, Laaloo and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 1 Link to comment
speedheat Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 The great dadaji is puncturing his mind order to secure careers of csk chamchas. raki05, UrmiSinhaRay, Suhaan and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment
wanted_desi Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) Reason Dhoni: You can't kick out Karthik as back up keeper, because he does better than Dhoni. You can't kick out Rayady, because his SR is higher than Dhoni. You can't kick Raina out, because you won't find better chamcha of Dhoni. You can't kick Jhadav Out, because he can slog better than Dhoni. To get a kick, you will need to do worse than Dhoni, which is nearly impossible.

Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Backing what BAcking???? Their is a diff btw backing n being left with no choice KL rahul backed???? Not at all, he was discarded from test team for dhawan, who jst came back bashing lanka . Hows is that backing Shaw is playing 1st test Pant - had to be played all 3 test coz karthik was injured n poor, 3 test is not backing Vihari is sitting on bench Pandya- their is no choice The reason we had these changes in test was - kyunki humara eng n Sa men Ch*tiya katta tha In odi , we jst lost in ENG and thats why not much changes are happ Its India, things only after disastor strikes. Like Only after CT we realised we needed wrist spinner when world realised it 2 yrs ago Kohli doesnt knw how to back anyone infact he doesnt back wrong talent properly Dhawan post his comeback got one game in Sa n dropped Rohit played at 3 only 3 test and demoted , Same 2 games in Sa 2 games dropped Kohli has no patience with anyone .....unless their is no option left UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
kohli Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 For world cup reason.I think he will kick all oldie after world cup. Link to comment
SUMO Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 In ODIs kohli want stability in the middle order to partner him in chases...we are chasing 60% of the time. In tests he doesnt feel the need of it so doesnt stop a young talent to fail and flourish. Link to comment
