I am sorry mate but this is atrocious ridiculous logic.

 

After 300, Nair went to domestics and failed for 5 innings straight.

 

5 innings.

He won't play in a 5 batsman + Ashwin/Pandya setup overseas anyway.

Sorry I was wrong.

He played one good knock on the flattest track and everyone made him hero too soon

[speedheat]

Why not kdar jadhav???

[kubrickian]

Because of that 300, he still averages 74 in tests despite 6 failures in 7 innings.  

 

He will most likely get another chance in 2nd innings. If he doesnt score, he will probably be back to FC.

[Texan]

Should have picked Iyer in his place for this Test.

[WeStMiDz]

Good player, needs time to understand his game at the international level. 

[jusarrived]

Can't drop a batsmen based on few failures . He's proven in domestic and now that he's been picked him , at least give him a run of 8 to 10 test matches before you drop him . 

Hes definitely not as bad as his last few innings from what I have seen .

Ever heard of sharmas ? How long o a rope they got ? Come on guys we are still trying to build a team give him a chance.

Few innings and people have lost it

What bradman they have on bench, or did they expected someone to come n start scoring every 2nd inning if so thats ur problem

Vijay n rahane havent become consistent till date why go after someone new

 

Drop him and bring whom Rohit sharma who fails 10 10 innings

Shreyas iyer what if he also fails few innings, becoz thats what we do we hype and its takes only few innings before we declare someone case hopeless

 

The expectation here i see with youngsters are bizzare ...........1st with hardik , jayant and now Nair. 

U wnt get ready made consistent players that easy.

 

People were having a go at rahul for the same before this series, how will u prepare players if u dnt allow them to fail

Bump lol. 

[Gollum]

LOL but guy should be in the reckoning for home tests like Che. Clearly not in contention elsewhere, in white ball cricket even Rahul can't get a game.

[Straight Drive]

Time to drop him. Waste batsman this IPL. Scored 2 tons in SMA, didn't he ? 

[sensible-indian]

He will be inconsistent even in home tests. 

[kohli]

He want to play in all format for india
