Austin 3:!6 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Seems like we have now forgot to win test matches even at home as long as its not a rank turner like Nagpur. If I am not wrong, MS didnt lose a single test series (all home) for first 2 years of his captaincy. Now with 13 upcoming home tests, lets see what Kohli does. diga, Rasgulla, Laaloo and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment
fineleg Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 MS didnt win it LOL! Most of the times - MS had a team where we had legend batsmen at home - Sehwag, Gambhir (in form), Dravid, Tendulkar, Laxman - at home they were KINGS. And Zaheer Khan and spinners can do their job once runs on board. Mosher and tweaker 2 Link to comment
express bowling Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) We have won the only test series we have played at home under Kohli -- against the then no. 1 team South Africa -- won it 3-0 and the 4th test was rained out.

So how many matches we lost after Dhoni at home. Only series we lost at home this decade was under Dhoni. Link to comment

The Realist Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Erm Eng won comprehensively in 2012 in Ind and Dhoni went missing as usual barely scraping an average of 30. Dhoni was an imposter in test cricket, with his pathetic body language and general lack of interest/strategy - ie. the continuous overseas whitewashes. Under Dhoni used to lose heavily away from home. Lannister, diga, Mosher and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment

kosingh Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I suppose it kind of helps having the likes of Tendulkar, Sehwag, Dravid, Laxman, Zaheer around. Link to comment

Lannister Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Its a disgrace to Test cricket that we even let him play that many matches let alone lead the team. He should stick to IPL where he can bash the local bowlers. gakgupta and tweaker 2 Link to comment

Adi_91 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 We lost once with a pathetic team of cricketers who were done with test cricket. Give credit to the man for his record at home. velu, sscomp32 and Rasgulla 3 Link to comment
