You don't need a special player to score runs against weak teams. ok if its easy find me player who can consistently avg 50 for 5 yrs . Easier said then done Link to comment

Okay, even Kohli failed in England but Sharma's consistency in failure in recent times is unbelievable. Sent from my CPH1609 using Tapatalk Dont know what is your gripe with Prithvi Shaw. Most people on ICF will be more than happy if Prithvi is fast tracked. But knowing our selector's I see zero chances of it. Note: I don not support Prithvi or Shubham Gills fast tracking as of now. Pant can be because we need a middle order hitter desperately. K Gowtham can also be tried to have a look at.And few others can be given more chances too : S Iyer, V Shankar. Link to comment

There was no time to give that scheduled Sunday test. The test was taken eventually on 20th and he cleared it. If he is indeed lying about his test and too publicly on his official twitter account, he can easily be called for by media etc that he is lying but have you seen any media report after that tweet from Rohit. You would not have. Also, you would not find any reliable media or even credible sites such as Cricinfo have actually reported that "Rohit did take the Yo-Yo test and he failed it". There you get the answer. I know Rohit is inconsistent/lazy, slow starter and really painful player to support but it is another extreme to find reasons to undermine him at any available occasion.

We played QF against the mighty Bangladesh and yes he didn't miss a chance there to score some easy runs and we all know what happened in the next match against Australians. What about Kohli then? Should he be dropped too. He flopped in WC as well. No runs in qf or SF from him. Less runs than dhawan and rohit. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Kohli in QF: 13.50 SF: 82.00 Finals: 27.66 Rohit in Qfs: 137.00 Sfs: 95.00 Finals: 4.00 I think its the main reason we haven't won much other than CT'13, even in which our batting failed just scoring 129 in 20 overs. If it keeps going like this way, we better not keep hopes too high. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

He is an FTB and on top of that lack kajoons to perform when there's a little bit of pressure. He was the 2nd highest run scorer in CT after Dhawan (another player who is mediocre in your dictionary). I am not a fan of Sharma, but lets give credit where its due. He avg 76 in CT last year. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/icc-champions-trophy-2017/engine/records/batting/most_runs_career.html?id=11237;type=tournament Link to comment
