Trichromatic Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Kohli clearly said that Rohit needs more chances and Kohli will continue to play at no 3. tweaker 1 Link to comment
urbestfriend Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 RHATCTIOS - Kohli ( Rohit has ability to change the test match in one session ) Link to comment
express bowling Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 What Kohli said in the post-match interview is very worrying. He will continue to bat at no. 3 and Rohit will play at no.5. More than Rohit playing, what is shocking is Kohli willing to put his own career at risk, by batting at a position where he is not comfortable at.....all for the sake of Rohit Sharma. There is a possibility that there is something outside of cricket that is going on here. Forever Indian, bowl_out, Mosher and 3 others 6 Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Pujara should go to England and have contract so he can play for England after 3 years for England..Shameful that the guy is benched for proven failure.Kohli looked uncomfortable and restless while sitting in dressing room after getting out cheaply in both the innings and I thought he must have realized his mistake..But no..He is in euphoria of win. Yes,Pujara's career is over unless NZ/England beat us at home..Australia have no chance. Mosher, Vilander and tweaker 3 Link to comment
Tibarn Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Pujara definitely needs to try to get a long term county stint. He needs to realize he's not fit for the IPL, athletically or batting wise. His career isn't over fully, but I doubt he will play unless injury, as long as Kohli is captain. tweaker 1 Link to comment

I am more worried about our batting line-up's career. Kohli at 3 and Rohit at 5 is not a good batting line-up, especially with 5 batters. Kohli is taking test match batting line-ups too casually and may end up suffering against good bowling attacks. Mosher, sandeep and tweaker 3 Link to comment
Trichromatic Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 This guy scored a 100 on tough pitch and lost spot to talent. Moreover team is ready to take all risks to accommodate this player. This may not be good idea even at home series against teams like England. tweaker and Mosher 2 Link to comment

Bigg Brother Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 One home series loss and Kohli will come back to earth after his world beating talk..You can't become No.1 with such a pathetic batting lineup.Unfortunately,he wont get that reality check soon as we have Ashwin,Jaddu at home.Get ready for another whitewashes in Australia and England next time we tour them. tweaker 1 Link to comment

When he bombs there he will tek recource that he tried it for Rohit who himself would have failed then and be replaced by Pujara tweaker 1 Link to comment
G_B_ Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 More than Che I am worried about Murali Vijay... he is on the wrong side of 30.... Shikar Dhawan is a lot less droppable than Rohit. tweaker, sscomp32, sandeep and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Rohit will actually hurt indian teams chances, Rahul Dhawan might actually work. Edited August 13, 2016 by Vilander tweaker 1 Link to comment

Yes,that is also nauseating when he talks how Dhawan scored brilliant "80" at antigua..What about Murli vijay who was scoring when you were sittimg duck against Jimmy. Vijay will walk into any test team at present. chewy, beetle, Mosher and 5 others 8 Link to comment

Trichromatic Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Btw is this first time a batsman is preferred because he can play attacking cricket in test cricket in captain's dream? Edited August 13, 2016 by Trichromatic tweaker, Vilander and bowl_out 3 Link to comment
zen Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Sad to hear this. Really enjoyed classical test batting of Che. Of late, I don't recall watching a batsman having the patience to leave 6 balls in a row Appears as if some folks want to make tests, ODIs and t20s similar Do whatever you want in Odis and T20s. Leave tests for the classic test match fans Mosher, tweaker and MechEng 3 Link to comment
chewy Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Pujara is at cross roads, if he wants to play international cricket there still weaknesses he needs to sort out and work on running too, but also at the same time score bucket load of runs in Ranji and if possible play County or any other overseas domestic first class he is still youngish and got time on his side, BUT unfortunately needs to let go of his ambition of playing IPL and ODIs. tweaker 1 Link to comment
