It is a big deal to us. We dont have any option other than him. Other possible contenders come with a lot of if's & but's. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Actually amount of time Kohli have been captain, I would say we could have won same or more number of Test matches even if he wasnt part of our Test team.

Rahane has hell lot of issues with spin. Barring the last test vs Saffers at our home where he scored 2 centuries in a test, he didn't do anything of note in our grand home season except a test innings against NZ. Pujara with all his experience in his 9th year of international cricket, has to spend almost half a year in England but wakes up from slumber to perform only when our backs are up to the wall in do or die situation. In SENA, he has scored in only flat Joburg, 2013 & this one at Rose Bowl. Kohli,for all his tactical & strategic mistakes, at least scores in all situations & is a top scorer from either of the sides. It is natural to have him lead the team. Everybody will favor him only & I don't blame them for it. Had Ashwin not been oversmart & put down his head, did his duty honestly then who knows. 2 hours ago, Khota said: Three formats three capatains. Kohli - Test Rahane - ODI Sharma - T20 This will put enough pressure on Kohli to start winning. If not than Bhuvi can be the captain. First of all, he doesn't deserve a place in any of the shorter formats. Him being kept forcibly in t20s & that too in opening slot has hurt us big time in not even one but two t20 WCs. He should focus on tests, also he doesn't have the ability to rotate strike fluently or has the power game to clear boundary with ease. Rahane of 2011 which went on England tour for limited over series was much better than Rahane of 2016. Has Bhuvi captained before? As far as I know he hasn't. Sharma for all his deficiencies has a knack for captaincy & I wouldn't have mind if he had been the skipper but I've never seen a player who struggles so much when the color of the ball changes.

Pollack Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Disappointed since I thought kohli was one of the few guys whose philosophy is "Winning is everything. Everything else is an excuse." UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Fine butthe point I am trying to make is that there is too much power concentrated in too few hands. It needs to be divided equally. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

England are pretty strong at home. We are the weak team here not them. I don't care what they say. They should just win the matches in overseas if they are really #1 side else there is no difference between eng and india. UrmiSinhaRay and Rasgulla 1 1 Link to comment

Rankings doesn't mean ****. pak is #1 in T20is that doesn't mean they are the best t20I team in the world lol. We ll easily win over them in t20is anywhere Link to comment
Deleted_User_1 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Yes sir Kohliji. It is defined by the number of chuskis you get from the sharabi over the course of 5 tests. Oh the horror, the horror!! UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
GautiMaan Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Kohli is content with this situation. He is the captain and the batting lynchpin and will keep getting accolades. Losses will be blamed on others. We need to unearth more star players whether its Shaw or Gill or whoever. Whether the selectors and Kohli are ready to that is the question. Looking at the squad for Asia Cup,Its pretty certain we are in for more hurt while Kohli and Shastri laugh all the way to the bank UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
motomaverick Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 His pathetic mindset was revealed when at the end of the Lords test he said that this was the first time his team was outplayed over the course of five away tests. So yes, close defeats are as good as wins for him. Hum fans hee chewtiye hain. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
