kubrickian Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Vikram focking Rathore who used to shiver against Donald and co and used to look like a tailender against them. Are you kidding me ? Sandeep99, Vijy and saik 3 Link to comment
Popular Post kubrickian Posted August 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2019 Those were the glory days of Indian batting - Vikram Rathore, Devang Gandhi, Shivsunder Das, Sujith Somsunder etc. Legendary 90s opening batsmen. sandsaims, tweaker, saik and 16 others 1 18 Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 He was one of our famous "90s jokes" lol. Zero feet movement. He would stand and try to negotiate the ball. Any time we wanted to make fun of our 90s squad, this guy's name would invariably pop up. There is something seriously wrong with our system. anish2tweet 1 Link to comment
Popular Post sandeep Posted August 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2019 The only way Vikram Rathore makes sense is another potential bakra to be sacrificed further down the line. He will never be a threat to either Shastri or to Virat. Pravin Amre would have helped our batting unit. But he has earned enough credibility to not be a pushover. Vikram has no choice but to be a yes-man. This is a political appointment. sandsaims, Cricwala, CG and 7 others 2 2 6 Link to comment
Soorma_Bhopali Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Shocking that Jonty Rhodes is not chosen over Sridhar. These guys have made a mackery of appointments process. With this kind of appointments, no high profile and good coaches will apply in future. Do you think the likes of Tom Moody will apply again after 15 years of continuous rejections ??? sandsaims and anish2tweet 1 1 Link to comment
kosingh Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 His memorable batting during the 96 England tour... We got to know Rahul Dravid. We got to know Saurav Ganguly. And we got know Vikram Rathour on that tour. Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I am sure quite a few in our current batsman would have made their debut when rathore was selector. Hope he is a better coach than batsman. All the best to him. Link to comment

The only hope is that he absoultely, fully knows how NOT to be an unsuccessful international batsman and thus can help current batsmen avoid the mistakes he did. adi B and vvvslaxman 2 Link to comment
ExtremeBrainfade Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Is it possible at all that they offered the batting coach job to Amre and the fielding coach job to Rhodes, but could not agree on contractual terms and had to go to Plan B - Rathour and Sridhar? But they cannot publicly reveal those negotiations. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 I hope he at-least he improves our players batting against spin bowling which isnt same as it use to be apart from pujara. He belongs to a generation of cricketer who played spin damn well. Link to comment

Maybe he can show videos of that tour as an education of how not to bat. saik and sarcastic 2 Link to comment
