Look at this , u think this guy will do well in test cricket and this was when is reflexes were better now he is a fatty

Now u can say thats dale steyn , check this yr IPL deepak chahar did the same 

 

If anyone is thinking about sehwag example, he got a 100 on his debut in SA at 6 to......rohit doesnt even have a single 50 in 2 tours of SA 

 

He was struggling agianst Dala in Odi in SA.....philander, Steyn, rabadda wud have eaten him alive

His 5th test was bad. He was just fine till test 4. I believe he should be benched based on the spineless effort in 5th test.

 

 You can shine the light yourself.

You didn't mention the reason though.

I agree.. Rohit will never cut it in test cricket. The comparision was against Dhawan the opener. Rohit might have atleast got 1 50 atleast in umpteen attempts 

[The Realist]

Sanjay Bangar would have performed better with the bat than Dhawan. He seems to be happier playing the clown and dropping catches than actually scoring runs.

 

If he is ever seen in an overseas tests again then heads need to roll.

Dhawan has done something in test cricket

Rohit avg is lower then ashwin, bbhuvi...........atleast their shud be something to back him

Looks like Vijay beat Karthik’s average and that too by only 1.25% just to rub it in

Lot of people don't appreciate and underestimate Dhawan. I know the reason why some don't like him. That is besides the point but because of his astounding effort India is off to a great start for the first time.

As i said all were garbage , so he looked a lil less garbage 

but its about good days . Its not about who is worse on bad days, its about who is best on good days and good players will always be backed

 

Vijay has had good days

Rahul has had it

Dhawan hardly any 

Call it what you may but for 4 tests he was better. Moving forward it is Rahul and aggarwal for me till those two guys pick up their game.

Why ? He can be a match winner in subcontinent scoring runs at brisk rate. He shouldn't be played in SEnA countries though.

Why not play young players in subcontinet, why to deny them home conditions

Shaw n Mayank plays at a very good pace and playing in only sena countries and maintaining a good avg is tough .......most players stats is helped by home conditions 

 

and btw he failed against Sa at home to which was a good team
