How can you replace a keeper who drops 4 catches in 17 tests? I won't trade Saha for an Andy Flower or Gilchrist if their keeping isn't at least 95% as good as Saha's. And by God 1 drop catch per 4 odd tests is a Bradmanesque statistic. Edited January 15, 2018 by Gollum abc and beetle 2 Link to comment

Agreed, we need a keeper who doesn't drop the straight-forward ones and can bat well overseas. Saha is anyways in his 30s so we need to start grooming another youngster, but given Kohli has not started looking for even Dhoni's replacement in LOIs this will take some more years to happen. beetle 1 Link to comment

Saha may be a good keeper, but Dhoni was no slouch + dhoni adds very good batting for you. I haven't been impressed by either saha or patel batting for your boys Dhoni away did nothing of note except off innings in England.Saha Is decent with bat. Yes but it was many many innings in England he played. the one at lords was unbelievably crucial in the history of indian cricket back in 07 ......

rtmohanlal Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 On one side, absolute incompetance from Dhawan,Rohit,Pujara,Parthiv On the other side,absolute brilliance from Kohli,Ashwin,Bhuvi Shami,Bumrah,Saha & Pandya,Vijay,Rahul,Ishant in between. Tells the whole story as of now.No wonder we are not able to win .. beetle 1 Link to comment

joe777z Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Patel knows that he can’t catch those, he did his best avoid the ball. Don’t blame him Link to comment

shortbread Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 2 hours ago, rkt.india said: it was straight out of Dhoni book of keeping against pacers. Dhoni has done it several times. Saha is India's best keeper, especially against pace. Dhoni would take taken the 2 chances of Ashwin's bowling, Faff and Rabada. If Parthiv is not contributing with the bat, best to get Saha back in. Ashwin and Pandya will bat ahead of Saha. beetle 1 Link to comment

zen Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Sad to see Ind suffer but not PP fault though that he was selected (No many would say no to a place in the team). Blame must rest with those who picked the squad and had him in the 11 (if Saha was actually fit) beetle 1 Link to comment

rkt.india Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) To be honest, i feel sad for Parthiv more. Everyone knows he is not good enough as a keeper, still gets picked. Even he himself would not have believed when he got picked against England. He is seriously under pressure now after all these drops. They young keepers are not ready and can fail but Parthiv too isn't ready and is also failing both with bat and gloves. Edited January 15, 2018 by rkt.india beetle 1 Link to comment
