Tridibans_16 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 With 3 wins and perhaps 1 more, this has been arguably the best year India has in its test history. Johannesburg, Trentbridge and now Adelaide. Can't remember any other year where we wn 3 matches in SENA countries. Currenlt it reads 3-6 (3 wins 6 losses). Great chance to make it 5-6. velu 1 Link to comment

King Tendulkar Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Not bad for a guy whose worst intenrational skipper ever and should be dropped just for his captaincy. I dream of the glory years of white washes and meek surrender under previous skipper Link to comment

Under him, our pacers have now become so potent. No number of threads and expert opinions can take that away from him. Mosher, philcric and Laaloo 3 Link to comment

Batting under him has gone to the dogs,will you blame him for that, if you are attrubuting bowler's success to his name. Link to comment

Based on those losses, will you continue to abuse him after today's win? As for batting, how has the batting 'gone to the dogs' when it's under him that we have started to score 500-600s at home something we had stopped doing from 2011-12 onwards? Away batting has regressed only slightly, check the scores on 2014 tour of Eng or 2013 tour of SA. It was not that we were hitting 350-400 in every innings. Link to comment

A quintessential follow the ball captain. However his contribution in so far as captaincy in three matches won was him winning the toss ín couple of them lol Edited December 10, 2018 by SK_IH Link to comment

zep1706 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Need to convert this into a series win. They won't get a better chance to beat Australia in Australia. Not only is their batting lineup unusually shaky, but this is also the best Indian attack ever to play in Australia. SK_IH and velu 2 Link to comment

Tridibans_16 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Kohli is a tactically limited captain. His selections time and again have proved costly for us. Have have to admit, his attitude and immense passion for his team's performance brings 200% out of the bowlers. Dhoni always used to let the game drift away and never knew how to handle quicks. What Dhoni was for Spinners Kohli is 10 times that to Fast bowlers. Being a top order batsman facing fast bowlers all his life explains this I guess. GoldenSun, SK_IH and Laaloo 1 2 Link to comment
