We will desperately need "that innings" in our 4th inn at mohali. Coz we will be under huge pressure from england in our 4th. Lets hope jinx can fight then. Link to comment
Texan Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Rahane is very circumspect against spin early in his innings. Usually he likes playing the faster men early. So far he has shown an ability to bounce back after some ordinary innings. Did it in the series vs SA too. Hopefully, he can get us over the line in the next innings. Link to comment

WC2011INDIA Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 He has lost it completely. Was **** in ODI and T20 and now in tests. Plays horrible shots and gets out cheaply. Cannot be counted to deliver when the team is struggling. We need someone young and hungry in place of him. Just send him back to domestics for a year or two. Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) This guy hates everyone in the team except Kohli. Every one in the team. Edited March 26, 2017 by sensible-indian sscomp32 1 Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Overseas tours are coming. Rahane is our most important test bat. Not that i disagree with OP reg ODIs, T20s and turners. Edited March 26, 2017 by sensible-indian Link to comment
rkt.india Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Rahane has been a huge let down this home season, averaging 38. Link to comment
helperononline Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 agreed rahane performance has been poor He has been good player in the past I hope he makes a comeback in this match Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Rahane has outscored Kohli in 3 of the last 4 home series he has played .All 3 of SA , NZL and now Australia he has been much better than Kohli. So we should drop Kohli too before talking about Rahane ? Nonsense . Sidhoni and sscomp32 2 Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Whose bright Idea was it to go with 5 batsmen without Kohli? Nair is new, cant go with 5 bats with Nair. Link to comment

Sidhoni Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Title sounds weird. Should be Rahane performance watch thread or something. Link to comment
speedheat Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Why not kedar jadhav in test matches ??? Link to comment
BCCI Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Irrespective of how he does in this game I have always thought this guy is very overrated.Struggles to play spin,liability in ODIs and average in T20s. But ya he gets a 100 overseas per series,so he must be great. One thing I particularly detest about him his he never looks in form or command ,always has that look of playing under pressure.

Even when in form, he doesn't dominate like others. He has yet to have a bumper series. If you are truly special and are in form then you should be scoring 500+ runs minimum in a series.

The Outsider Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Haha! There's a player performance thread on arguably India's best test batsman to the extent many want him dropped. Haven't read even 5-7 posts but read something like so what if he scores a hundred everywhere he goes! Link to comment

Get 100 in 1 test ,sleepwalk in others,get classified as India's best test batsman,thank you very much This guy is a exact copy of that Shafique from Pakistan. Link to comment
Sidhoni Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Don't forget his partnership with Pujara at Bangalore is the reason we are still in the series. Staring down at 0-2, personal form not great, weakness against spin and he came out with a gem of a knock in the context of the match. Jimmy Cliff 1 Link to comment
