Isn't the criticism justified? He keeps trying to play cheeky shots and loses his wicket. Lost the T20 match against Australia at the start of the year from a winning position. 

 

I am all for backing youngsters but they should be criticised for throwing their wicket away.

This isn’t criticism - this is bullying 

in t20 wickets not as much valuable as strike rate- pant plays correct and as per his strength . 

 

What shastri is doing is nothing but gutter politics . U can give feedback in private - imagine a dravid or a kumble ever saying something like this - all the good guys have been kept out and it’s a corrupt couturie running the show

every youngsters throws his wkt at start, sehwag did all his life. 

Thats his game....the days it comes off it looks great but it has a flip side to the day it doesnt come off

He is an impact player....shudnt expect consistency from him. Neither was gilly, sehwag, jayasuria consistent 

 

If u want consistency that will come at cost of impact .......We already have rohit, kohli, dhawan now lets not make someone bat ni their mould. Ppl want some one to tonk from ball 1 but on most days it doesnt come off......so if u want that expect the other side as well

From the article:

 

The T20 World Cup is more than 12 months away but Kohli has already detailed his plans and expectations from his side.


"That's exactly what we're looking at, try out new people and see who stands up under pressure," 
he said

Kohli the proven KO choker and king of pressure free bilateral series speaking about pressure.

Look who is talking biggest choker of all time.

Imagine you are a new joinee in a MNC. There is a senior who worked on the same project whom the bosses love. As soon as you join there is only public praise of the senior and public criticism of you as a new joinee. Everyone is after you, waiting for you to make mistakes so that they could sack you and hire the old guy back. Will you make more mistakes or less in such a toxic environment?

Pant will have a very good case of mental harassment at the work place against this current cabal running Indian cricket. Should he explore this option? Coach and Captain have gone public on him, he has got every right to expose them and their duplicity

 

May lead to a short term setback to his career but will be immensely beneficial to our cricket. If not him, someone else should do, much needed.

. Dhoni, who mistreated so many of our legends, faced this after 2015 when he became totally useless

I don't agree Dhoni mistreated any legends...they had all reached their sell-by date when they retired. Ideally, Gambhir should have taken over from him as test Captain in 2012, but his form fell away appallingly. Problem with Dhoni was he sucked at test captaincy after WC 2011 win, he lost all interest in that format and became greater than the game because he was N Srinivasan's blue eyed boy. Dhoni also failed to groom young quicks, turned many into pathetic line & length trundlers. But yeah, Virat is following in Dhoni's path and will likely be as reviled few years down the line, UNLESS BCCI strips him off captaincy soon

A lot of blame for this mess goes to busybodies of Supreme Court - self-appointed moral crusaders who wade into 'meaty matters' like cricket, diwali crackers, wedding sizes, bar dancers etc while ignoring mountain of 60k cases & questions of accountability raised against their incestuous club. BCCI had gotten rid of N srini & Pawar cabal, Anurag Thakur was bringing more professionalism and things were looking up with appointment of Kumble as coach, but Lodha committee ego created the clueless body called CoA and Kohli has been enjoying unchecked power ever since.

Pant will have a lot of pressure going until the WT20. If he wants the spot as WK-batsman, he will need to learn to bat more mature fast. Calculated aggression > aggression for the sake of it. 

 

Otherwise Thala will return to the lineup for the tournament. 

Pant has 2 t20 50s while thala has 2 in his entire career. Ghante mature approach in t20 of all format. No wonder we get nowhere in t20 world cup. Only time we won was when we had people like yuvraj playing aggressive cricket. There is a reason conservative approach in t20 failed us every time

That doesn't matter to selectors. Dhoni is a legend, even if he doesn't perform. Have we not seen him under-perform for the last 4-5 years and still get selected for the WC? There is a reason Shastri and now this article has come up so recently targeting Pant.  

 

They are getting everyone ready for Dhoni's return. And if Pant plays immature, that gives thala even more opening.
