kruiser Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Is it Kohli for his brainfart in 1st innings and selecting Hitman above Rahane/ Dhawan over KL? Is it Dhawan for his glorious half pulls of front-foot to a rising ball? Is it Rohit for his lazy elegance? too lazy to complete the stroke? Is it Shami who looked jaded in 1st innings, releasing all pressure built by Bhuvi? Or is the selectors/ Shastri/ Dhoni/ Sachin/ the whole world against us responsible? (JK) For me it is Kohli for obvious reasons.. selections, more than his batting. sscomp32 1 Link to comment

Rasgulla Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Where is Dhoni? I think his Co2 that he left during last tour is the reason.. Create an option for whole batting in 1 line.. everyone sscomp32 1 Link to comment
Bogus Endian Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Not the main culprit but one of the less highlighted indeed. Mr. Saha..good wicket keeper but very poor batsman. Only wicket keeping is not everything. With this sort of absurd batting, Sahas selection isn't justified. Let's be honest he's not Boucher in Wicket keeping. (Boucher still was a very fine batsman). Look at other teams wicket keepers, all are good batsman. De kock, Tom Latham, Sarfarz all are in fact one of their top batting stars in tests. Hack even Bangladesh has better test wicket keeping batsman with Mushfiq and the other guy Das. Zimbabwean Taylor too. Link to comment

Straight Drive Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 From Vijay to Saha, all the batsmen have flopped. No point in blaming only one batsman in 1-6. Same batsmen will do well when the wicket will be flat. The worst is gone. Turning_track 1 Link to comment

Shunya Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Kohli for his selections as captain and no-show in batting. Link to comment
mishra Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Kohli because he has selected 2 more failures in playing 11. Shashri is Chwewtiya sscomp32 1 Link to comment

Though there is no competition for him in our team currently. With Parthiv, its a gamble - he might catch straightforward catches like this match but might mess up at difficult ones. Link to comment

Plus Saha made keeping look easy. It's never easy to keep to 4 fast bowlers on fast bouncy pitches. Ball comes at a height you are never used to in the SC. beetle and Straight Drive 2 Link to comment
