He should stick to MI lol

[Rasgulla]

India has lowest average in pp  

 

If this guybis best opener then ishant is the best bowler of india.. he made pointing dance to his tunes once 

[Pollack]

If you expected anything from Rohit against good bowling attack then you're idiot. Not Rohit.

He was at seas against Amir even in group stage match. The only difference being he was allowed to play out Amir. Today he cannot do so while chasing a big score. In any case he wouldn't have survived. That was some class bowling from Amir. Completely out of nowhere.

Amir embarassed  Rohit in 2015 w/c as well - was quite expected

Here are the numbers since Jan 1 2015, so it includes the last WC up to today

 

Rohit is in the conversation as the 2nd best opener based on the numbers since 2015. It's between him and Guptill. Warner is a step above based on his strike rate, but it's hard to fault a 58 average at a 94 strike rate.

Amir didn't play in 2015 WC.

 

Look rohit has problem when the ball is swinging and then again who doesn't?

 

He is least if our problems but yes his technique is a problem

Can't rememebr which tournament where Amir opened and Rohit was dummied along with Raina by Amir in the first over or so .  It was just this exact ball and dismissal

Can we eliminate minnows... he is known minnow basher and get me IMP matches and against main teams 

[The Realist]

Big problem is that Sharma is poor chasing and consumes too many dot balls, running is not great. Always trying to play yourself in a poor approach for a limited overseas opener.

 

For a player who is now in his 30s he needs to step up & either become a responsible senior player or be replaced by younger talents.

I'll run it again filtering out for minnows. Which teams do you consider minnows?

You can't win an argument with him and trust me that is not a compliment for him or neither is that a doubt on your debating skills.

[Tibarn]

Here is against the top 4 teams: Ind, Aus, SA, Eng plus another team

 

Top 4 + Pak I didn't include Bang, NZ, WI, or SL 

Top 4 + NZ I didn't include Bang, Pak, WI, or SL

Top 4 + Bang I didn't include Pak, NZ, WI, or SL

 

[King Tendulkar]

Rohit sharma is a good odi player . Come on guys we silly 

 

one dismissal and ....

[WC2011INDIA]

an idiot. Overrated bilateral/minnow/group stage/quarter final specialist. That's all. Same with Shikhar and Virat only when batting first or facing minnows.

Well in that case let me help ur vastly knowledge to grow more 

That was asia cup last yr not 2015 WC, where the wkts were extremely helpful for fast bowler

He got Rohit n Rahane in same over....

Raina he got in his second over

I wanted to post just drop him for the final or push him down to #4 for the final because after a big innings, he invariably fails. He is not a proper opener and needs to be removed from opener's spot or else we will end up taking a risk in every game. He can serve well at #4 as he is now a senior player and is capable of clearing the field easily. 

Whom did u wanted to open with incase u wanted to push him down to # 4

If he survives he is a match winner...yes I have doubts in his ability now to survive a probing spell up front...may be open with Rahul and Dhawan and Rohit in place of Yuvi

Him being in the middle order never worked in the 1st place, he is only best suited to open or may be 3 which cannot be touched

But that opening partnership needs some work coz of being to cautious . Either the players needs to be changed or the approach

Exactly , you got the gist of my point - Sharma's history of being dummied by Amir is quite an old habit. Hence his awful game against any decent seam attack is atrocious and his legacy by bundling BD/SL is quite meaningless. 

[Cricketics]

Good job guys, continue to roast the guy who was second highest scorer in the tournament and just failed in the finals.

 

Well done. If you know a better opener then let me know. And please don't mention Pant as he is yet to be tried and will be tried soon, name someone else.
