A guy who almost avg 50 , has runs in SA, AUS, NZ, home is being questioned Bhuvi has great test average too, is he in the bowling line up?

PBN Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 looks like patch up work being done after this thread was moved to the jokes section @topic well he was already in the team when he wasn't the captain. plus anyone who's a beast in LOI will eventually keep on getting chances in the Test team. Likes of Yuvraj/Raina are examples and they didn't have decent test averages either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khota Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 He deserves to be in the team. He need not be the captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tibarn Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Where does this come from? The number of batsmen who can be rated even comparable to Kohli can be counted on 1 hand. Absolute champion batsman across and in all three formats. express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkt.india Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 On 7/26/2017 at 9:18 PM, New guy said: Am not talking about this series. Is Kohli better than Rohit in tests? What about DK? Why can't we have Rahul, Murali and Dhawan all in the team? Kohli averages 49.41 in test cricket. Dhawan averages 38.52, Rohit averages 37, Vijay averages 39, Rahul 44. In which world then Kohli wouldn't make the team and these guys would? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
