Ultimate_Game Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 15 minutes ago, rkt.india said: Karn never played under RD in ipl. Dravid coaches u19 and A teams and he pushes for guys who he finds good. Pant, pandya, Shankar, shardul all have played under him those teams. If you followed the IPL 2-3 years back you would've known how hard Dravid pushed for Karn Sharma the whole tourney. Literally very few days there was an article or something about how impressed Dravid was and how he should play for India in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and he totally ignored his Fc performances and pushed for a bowler to be included in TESTS on the back of T20 performances DDfan2017 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has nothing to do with Dravid yes dravid does have a problem with over thinking and over experimenting but nothing wrong with him backing youngsters and I don't see an ulterior motive. agreed pant should bat higher.... nair needs a break. samson has proved his worth and deserves the backing for now... not sure why Nadeem was dropped. thats my take. asterix and beetle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate_Game Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 I guess Nadeem with his ER of 4.9 this IPL wasn't considered good enough to be included in the DD team Now I'm all eager to see Nair bat up the order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I clearly remember Dravid's remarks and various articles where he actively pushed for Karn. here are a few I can find... http://www.espncricinfo.com/australia-v-india-2014-15/content/story/795801.html http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/ipl/interviews/Leggie-Karn-Sharma-looks-forward-to-IPL/articleshow/46842541.cms In both these articles as well as various others if you google you will read about Dravid calling and pushing for Karn Sharma's inclusion in India's Test squad to Australia. Kohli agreed him and actually played him. I dont get why coach is blamed when things go wrong and captain credited when they go right.Only in Dhoni's case it was reverse sscomp32 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Dravid can be partly questioned but Zaheer calls the shots on the field, when we are fielding. Though I would say, I am not fan of him backing Nair's selection that much, but eventually, he is truing to give him a chance, so I am fine but if he continues to fail, needs to be booted out for Bawne.

Teams should look to give chance to new players when their team has won like 3 out of 4 games. Delhi has lost 3 out of 5c they are in no position to rest their best bowlers for a gsme or two.

Dravid himself did that in his ODI career so i see a reason why he does that. But yea at times it goes to overboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
