QED - Sunny doesn't like tattooed players because somebody with tattoos snatched his lunch box.

He is living in past glory and doesn't understand anything about T20's to be precise .This old hog needs to understand T20's is not just about building ...A player who can score 30 runs of 18 balls or so is a better than one who scores 50 off 48 balls .

That tattoos thing..it's below the belt... straight away accusing of nepotism. And this old guy was hand in glove with everything that Srinivasan did. He was shouting on tv saying there will be investigation by a retired judge, isn't that enough etc crap... Thanks to SC, csk was banned. If it was Gavaskar he would have given clean chit to Meiyappan

close to 100? In T20s, we need career SR at least over 125, preferably some batsmen hitting SR of 135-140 and some 140 plus. Minimum requirement is 125-130.

The defining factor of a t20 batter is S/R n a great T20 batter is the one who can maintain a good average as well to go with it, Gavaskar doesn't get the modern game and maybe he is dis interested or bias coz Rahane is a Marathi.

Rahane should not even be in the ODI squad let alone t20, this format requires players who r dynamic,tattoo n image has nothing to do with performance the numbers don't lie and Rahanes combination of ave and s/r is very poor and is surprising he is still in the team or squad.

Rahane has already played 80 plus ODIs.

I wonder how many Rohit played before he found his groove.

how does that matter.... Do you want Rahanae to be given as many chances to discard him...? Rohit got so many chances also because of chance.... That is he was an irregular player due to the constant breaks that SRT used to take from ODIs in his final years (2009-11). Only after SRT retired and Sehwag declined did Rohit started getting continuous opportunities....

I don't think rahane needs that many chances, because his role is already clear. he's the backup (slowpoke) opener behind dhawan and rohit

Fair enough and I personally do not mind. 

But many people claim that there are more deserving members who need a chance instead of Rahane...

 rohit was always a good t20 player unlike rahane. U can see why rohit got so many chances in odis because of his t20 hitting ability.
