Kohli indeed is a poor captain in shorter formats especially as far as field placements, bowling changes are concerned. But his selection of players have also been poor in general. He is very hesitant to try new blokes. But good thing about him is he is not adamant like dhoni who would go to any extent just to prove his point. Kohli will definitely learn from his mistakes.

Kohli is someone who needs time to adapt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedheat Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 How does different rules apply to Kohli who's having a nightmare with arguably one of the strongest team this season. Strongest team?? How?? When you have a Washed up gayle ,Watson etc with the rubbish bowling line up how can you call it one of the strongest team?? Kohli too share the blame, but its totally different topic we can discuss it afterwards, but certainly you can't ignore the fact that Smith guided an almost rubbish team to the finals something which dhoni could never.

Gayle and Watson are washed up? Then why play them? I said 'one of the strongest sides'. It's not a different argument. It is exactly the same to what we were arguing over earlier. I would take Kohli over Dhoni any day as our Test captain, but if you go by your rules of judging a captain, then Kohli is worse than Tendulkar as a skipper.

They all were playing with their past reputation. Discussion here was about who is the better captain in IPL for rps since this is IPL forum but if your relating it to international and bringing kohli into it then I certainly can't help. Kohli too was piss poor and hesitant about team selection I never ignored it. Don't you agree with goenkas word about Smith?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean to say Smith is a better captain for RPS than Dhoni or generally a better captain? If goenka was only a armchair expert my friend then he wouldn't have dropped msd from captaincy, he knew what was wrong in his team and apparently fixed it and results are showing. No in IPL I would say smith is better then msd, in general he is good but still raw as captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beetle Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 This is the reason this team needs to go. Which other owner behaves like this? Putting down players in public. Even Mallya remove RD but did not put him down in public. I hope this man does not get to have a team next year.

Mallya not only put down RD, he put down the whole team in public, he was constantly whining about how he was mislead into buying a test team for the t20 tournament, and Goenka should definitely have a team next year, he's way better than betting frauds like srini mama Edited May 20, 2017 by kira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lannister Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I wish Indian selectors had half of the Cricketing brains that this guy posses. Hats off to Goenkas for sacking Dhoni from the captaincy and put him in his rightful place. And for Smith asterix, New guy, Bigg Brother and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
