Quick - Guess who's India's second best overseas test batsman in the last year

[sage]

 

That's right. Rohit Sharma. To think some lunatics still have the gall to put him down.

 

Rohit >>>> Dhawan > Rahane > Pujara > Vujay > Rahul

 

BCCI should charter him a plane for the next test and show some respect! 

[wanted_desi]

He is already 31 Years old, and still couldn't established himself. it is time to move on from him, and look to invest in Vihari, Mayank & Shaw, who have been doing really well for India A. If you select Sharma, are you saying that India A performances don't matter, they will always give a guy go who used to be in team and was dropped for poor performance?  

[Khota]

He is still better than Vijay, rahul and Pujara.

 

On ICF if there is a intense dislike for someone they just cannot get over it.

Yes, I'll try Rohit any day to provide a match winning knock for India over those 3. Let alone the fact that he already proved himself scoring 2 centuries in the limit overs matches IN England.

Rohit Sharma, Dhawan, Raina, Ishant Sharma ... The waste created under Dhoni. 

[The Dark Horse]

I think it's Ashwin...check your stats..

[rtmohanlal]

both Rohit & Dhawan  need to be  replaced by 2 batsmen who is skilled enough to find places in test eleven too. With SRT-Sourav-Sehwag that was the case.

Love that picture , perfect example of an International opening batsman in the first over. Young up and coming cricketers should study this and see how you get into the Indian team . Leading into the shot with his head, a big forward stride to the pitch of the ball, a nice high left elbow , bat and bad together with the bowler seeing a full face of the bat as he plays in the V

That picture ....

He was lucky not to play the first two tests. Otherwise his average would have been under 10.  He couldn't handle Deepak Chahar in a slightly friendlier condition in India. He is going to handle Anderson with Duke ball in typical English conditions lol Pass me whatever you guys are smoking. This theory "he wouldn't have done worse" is applicable only for those who are yet to be tested not the one who was already tested several times and failed each time.

How can some ICF posters be so dumb? I don't think casual cricket fans waste their times on forums. Either that or they are grandmasters of subtle trolling.

[Ankit_sharma03]

Dhawan who didnt play 2 test in SA n 1 Here

Yes match winner for Eng, SA, Aus, Pak

He's proved himself in T20Is and LOI's. Let him concentrate on white ball cricket alone.

[sage]

He proved himself in tests as well. Have you forgot his deadly 47 in that pitch in South Africa? 50% more runs than second highest Indian batsman in that innings.

Under the current situation I am tempted to open the next inning with Dhawan and Rohit. He should be on the next flight to UK.

 

Vijay is done but Rahul can come back.

He is the top bat for India barring none.
