Not sir if we can compare him with late order finishers. It is harder. But he needs to open. Rohit can come at 4

he scored his T20I 100 batting at 4. he turned his T20 career for RCB while batting in middle order in 2018

But he is more effective at the top going afterbowlers from ball 1.

mistimed shots have Bette chance of escaping fielders

Kohli is an insecure b!tch and Shastri has been bought by Team Bunty Sajdeh, no other reason. Even Rohit is involved because of Bunty angle. 

Shastri/Gavaskar all had a crush on young NoH!t because of the gaauthi thing. Even when getting bowled NoH!t reeks of talent.....cringe!

T20 slots were full .. 

if he had done well in ODIs he might have grabbed his chance in T20s ..

hindsight is always 20/20

 

simialr thing happened with uthapp as well .. if we had given chnaces to him or he used his opportunuties properly , he might be a regular for us in LoIs

Not at all a hindsight.

 

Even at that time, most here on ICF were shocked Rahul was not picked in the starting XI. And Rahul's last T20 innings prior to that was a century against west indies in 40 odd balls. At that point Rahul was averaging around 50 with SR around 150 in about 10 games.

 

T20 slots were not full at all. Except Virat and to an extent Rohit, none of other batsmen were great T20 batsmen. That included Dhawan, Pandey, Iyer, Dhoni and Jadhav.

 

India is the least powerful T20 batting unit compared to West Indies, Australia and England. May be South Africa too.

Rohit is irepalcable in T20s , and dhawan was in great  form.

Only slot he can take  is #3 , but its upto kohli.

 

If rahul comes at #4 or belwo ,  whole world will say they are misusing Rahul and again as he failed as #4 bat in ODIs , we cant expect him to be given #4 slot in T20s.

 

Again its both team maangement and Rahuls fault as well.

So, what is special about Lokesh Rahul!!!! Even he could not take his team to victory when they needed only 133 in a 20 over game. We was doing well to some extent and got out. So, let us not put him on a high pedestal and go gaga over him.... 


Dhoni..... seriouly.... he will never loose like that for his team in such a chase. I am not a MSD fan but then....really you want to play KL Rahul ahead of him... ( whatever talent that KLR has)...
