Getting a start and giving it away in the first inning IMO, that was the turning point of the match. Vijay failing consistently cost us the series. End of the story. The Dark Horse 1 Link to comment

Khota Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Frog does taste like chicken. Anyway let us not deflect and keep this topic to the injustice done to Dhawan. There is a separate thread for Parthiv/Saha. Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment

Kohli's selection blunders (Rahane/Bhuvi), dropped catches, Pujara's no show, Rahul/Dhawan not firing etc didn't cost us the series, it is entirely down to 1 man you say? That shows your admiration for him, kitna bada khiladi hai yeh, Vijay fail to poora team fail. Ankit_sharma03, maniac and philcric 1 2 Link to comment

My words may be harsh but I was letting the haters of Dhawan know that him out of team is not the answer. Link to comment

Dhawan is certified hack. He proved several times in the same innings in the only test he played. Your ridiculous argument of he scored 10 runs more than him so he is better is getting old. I also showed how he made those runs. All streakily edging through slips. There was nothing convincing about his batting in these parts. He is worse than Mohammad shami if anything. I would gladly open with mohammad shami ahead of Dhawan. GUbber is good when there are not many slips and there are restrictions for bowlers like in ODIs. Outside Asia he sucks balls in Tests.

Looking at how they handled bouncers, Shami looked better lol Dhawan got out to regulation bouncers. Lungi would have owned him left right center. I am still waiting for proof that he would have done well. There is zero evidence. No past records that we can speak of. Even his short stay was painful to watch.
