Cricketics Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 It's one of those things which we can't do anything about. He is our best keeper-bat in every deparment. But overall disappointed with his keeping. Whole windies tour also he was pretty disappointing behind the stumps and continues to be so far in England. Hopefully he does well from here on. He is our best keeper-bat and offcourse captain, so it's kind of futile to discuss this but one can only hope he gets back the same form which he had before World Cup. Never seen him this ordinary in keeping. Please no IPL talk in this thread. Link to comment
Sid Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Disappointed with his keeping as well as batting :(( Link to comment
Cricketics Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 Disappointed with his keeping as well as batting :(( Actually batting isn't a big deal. He will find his way to a 70-100 run knock soon as he often does after after few innings. I don't think we should be worried too much about his batting. as I type this - O NO.. GAMBHIR HAS GOTTEN HIT VERY BADLY HERE.. SUCKS.. PHACK... Link to comment
yoda Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Yes, in a span of a few overs here one quick catch off Harbhajan (which he took in WI BTW) and another one off PK between him and RD where he should have dived for it. For the second one he didn't even move. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 he has no confidence in his batting right now,not sure it is going to chnage anytime soon. Link to comment
asterix Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Need to play a specialist keeper in place of him. Saha could be drafted in.. Dhoni has started hurting India's chances now...He can play as a batsman.. Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 That was a horrible miss. What the hell was he thinking, the ball started shaping away from the left hander and he started going towards leg and then would have had to move the other way, which he couldn't do Link to comment

People were blamign Dravid that the ball swing and stuff. but it was actually Dhoni's fault in the first inning too. Link to comment
Kookabura Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Perhaps it is the pressure of captaincy. Dhoni's keeping as well as batting have become mediocre. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 This is from 2011 .. bumping. He is not focussing at all. H is copping out easily when the ball is even a foot away from him Link to comment

ThePhenomenal1 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 the guy sucks in all departments now. Just get him out and let the youth free. Rather lose with an all out young team free from dhoni than one with dhoni Link to comment
ZeroBlack Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Why is he still in the test team? Corruption? Link to comment
Laaloo Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 That's not the only thing dissappointing. His press conferences before the match, after the match, his batting, his demeanor on the field, and his wonderful captaincy. That actually is a complete package. Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 There's no spring in his movement. Link to comment
G_B_ Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 keeps well to spinners at home has always struggled away from home. especially england Link to comment
