tweaker Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 X Factor,Flair,Mr talent many more accolade are waiting for Rohit. Link to comment
jusarrived Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I am fine with Rohit playing in Sri Lanka. if you saying this cos the pitches are going to be flat you couldn't be more wrong . its going to be slow and low & hes going to struggle big time in that case . He needs flat and true wickets to score runs which is unlikely he will get in SL Link to comment

He needs flat and true wickets to score runs which is unlikely he will get in SL But against Pakistan SL had sporting tracks with something for every bowler? I heard their fast bowlers are injured so if they want to make pitches accounting for that, then shouldn't it be pattas? Link to comment

Pak always seem to get those pitches , infact their last series the pitches wer even more greener . if we get a greener pitch , Rohit wont survive a over Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Kohli wants his gang with him in the XI. Pray to God that he fails miserably this series as does Hackwan. Also high time Darty is called for chucking. Can't take these deadweights against RSA. Link to comment
Marut Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 He will be ok in Asia. Rohit will be Bradman like once every ten matches, and Chris Martin like in the remaining nine. He is the batting equivalent of Ishant Sharma. Oh, these Sharmas and the Indian team...:) Link to comment
div Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Laxman was averaging only 24 after 16 tests, so Rohit deserves more chances. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/30750.html?class=1;template=results;type=allround;view=cumulative Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Laxman was averaging only 24 after 16 tests, so Rohit deserves more chances. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/30750.html?class=1;template=results;type=allround;view=cumulative For starters Laxman was played out of position as an opener thats why the poor numbers .Also We dropped Laxman who went back to domestic cricket scored record breaking runs and made a comeback into the team. Not to forget he had the majestic 167 in sydney even before he was dropped unfairly.Comparing that with the Rohit situation is a pointless and entirely misleading Link to comment

CG Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 This will be tough for rohit these are slow pitches and spin friendly which takes voids rohits backfoot play.His best position is top of order as he gets stuck against spinners as he cannot rotate. Link to comment

Like they made Dravid Open in 2008 for Yuvraj in Australia. Link to comment
tweaker Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Flair vs Substance Rohit. Pujara Link to comment
Kalia_Test Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Sunil Gavaskar says "Rohit is a better choice over Pujara but I feel Virat should bat at No. 3. That way, he can set the agenda for the rest," Gavaskar told NDTV. http://www.rediff.com/cricket/report/rohit-is-better-choice-but-i-feel-virat-should-bat-at-no-3-sunny-gavaskar/20150811.htm Sunny bhai wants Virat at no.3 but I feel he is better at no.4. People under-estimate Rohit and over-estimate so-called technique. When the sucker-ball comes, no Bradman/Dravid/Ponting can do anything. It is about how much a batsman can do in little-time to set up the match. Rohit is as good as anyone when it comes to that. He can literally demotivate an entire bowling line-up with his skills.

What the hell has Rohit done to deserve a test spot. I just dont get it. Everyone is saying he deserves. A guy like Pujara who was always touted as #3 suddenly cant find a place in the XI. This is seriously rubbish by captain and management. This is the kind of thought process that made Yuvraj open and Dravid had to open for him to create a place for him. Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I hope India gets beaten and Kohli gets a lesson for picking lazy over Pujara. F'in loser. Link to comment

coffee_rules Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 How is Lazy a better choice over Pujara, Mr Gavaskar just pushing his Bombay bias as usual. Can any body give a valid case for picking Rohit over Pujara? Kholi is being Khali above his shoulders. Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 ****ing flair The worst no.3 we ever had Kohli and Shastri are retards to play him at no.3 What idiot chooses a player for strike rate instead on technique as no.3 in tests . Link to comment
Captain Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 With Rohith Sharma's technique, he shouldn't be anywhere near the Test team let alone the no 3 position.I'm so tired of hearing the words elegant,flair etc about Rohith's batting when the words should be brainless,one dimensional,FTB etc. Link to comment
