head coach Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Suresh Raina is a delight to watch. He's got the talent to shine at the top stage. This set of ODI's will define his role in ODI team. Get buckled up Raina!
coffee_rules Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 He sucks royally in 'Lotto Super Skills'.
DravidDaBest Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 He sucks royally in 'Lotto Super Skills'. 'Lotto Super Skills' is not an indicator one way or the other. If persisted, Raina will come good. Even if he avg. 30 and along with his fielding, he'd be more than handy

Get buckled up Raina! raina is highly overrated and WILL certainly fail miserably in this series, cant wait tbh
The Outsider Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Raina has everything in him to be a good batsman. I don't see any reason why he won't make it in the long run. He was in superb form in the domestic season and deserved his spot.

He was in superb form in the domestic season and deserved his spot. Did you see him bat against Lee & co in the ICC CT ? Till that day, i was sold on his hype, but anymore. Raina must first do something to be deserving of all his hype. Plus Greggy rates him very highly, so there goes Raina's credibility :haha:

Yuvraj and Jaffer are still not able to play the likes of Lee after so much experience.
The Outsider Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Also, one amazing aspect of Raina's game used to be his ability to hit the stumps which even our excellent fielders like Yuseless and Kaif have lacked. The guy used to affect a direct hit run out every other game or so. Hope he has kept that ability intact.
Bumper Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Raina is a dynamite on the field, I'll give him that. But he has to more than just prove with the bat. He's all hype at the moment (as a batsman). If he fails in this tour, I'd like to see him replaced with Tiwary.

satishg Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Raina is an awesome talent..i don know how many guys heard this story..greg chappell had called up BC Lara and had asked him to look into Rainas batting in the nets.. Lara was so impressed with this guy that he said he is destined for a gr8 future ahead..he just cudnt convert the starts in his first part of the career..hope he realizes his true potential coz it can only mean a good thing for indian cricket..

satishg Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: laugh all u want but i still think he is one of the best talents in the country and needs to be persisted with..
bigdhoni7 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 i predict raina is going to fail miserably. hopefully the selectors have the common sense of dropping him for good after this series and allow other young talents (tiwari, yusuf, pujara, etc) a nod ahead of Chappell's boy. edit: hey what happened to my raina thread i created yesterday?
sreej Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 laugh all u want but i still think he is one of the best talents in the country and needs to be persisted with.. I agree completely. I hope Raina silences all his doubters this time around. He has done everything right in domestic cricket to warrant a comeback. Show 'em Raina!

King Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Raina has talent and all the strokes. He can't blame anyone but for himself having been out of action for sometime though. He had heaps of opportunity to prove his worth but came a cropper overseas. I guess someone else needed to be tried. Meanwhile Uthappa that looked not as good as Raina has grabbed the opportunities well enough.
