“We are also hurt the way you guys are” Shikhar Dhawan posts emotional message

[Number]

In the end it is all about performance. Nobody is bothered about your personal life. But when you fail score a 50 in 12 innings people will question your commitment.

This is very poor showing by Dhawan. no excuse.

Good that he was late in reviewing, otherwise with the stupid  ump's call, India would have lost a review.

Good to know that the players are hurt. But the ground is not a hospital where you get treated

This guy cannot play for Indian test team anymore. He is totally useless.

How about making a game changing century or big score and dedicating it to fans instead of begging for sympathy like a bhikari in a Bollywood movie?

I have no problem with his Bhangra moves. I have problem with lack of runs on the board.

He knows that emotional fans in India will fall for it.

How can an intl opener be this bad overseas ,tour after tour !

[Forever Indian]

Vijay got dropped after one test where everyone failed. This guy gets a free ride in all conditions and somehow Kohli plays him again after dropping him for non performance. Why is Shaw not even tried, how can he be any bad than Dhawan?

Anyways we are good that his career is now done and dusted in test matches . Though his game is suited for aussie pitches like rohit, we need to move on. Get players with good backfoot play. Strong spin players should also do well in Australia.

We are interested in their fightbacks ... not their hurts due to their own incompetencies.

True. At international level the performance matters. The talk of "Process", "Preparation", "Ability", "Potential" are useless talks if the performance is not given. Accountability should be there. If you win you get all the appreciation, if you flop be ready to get criticized. It's not a gully cricket match to say we tried and sweep horrible show after losing every series overseas. Man up and accept that everyone else apart from Virat amongst the specialist batsmen have flopped in the SA and in England.

Yep, each of these flop batsmen have their die hard fans and are easy to be taken for ride by such sentimental postings through social accounts. However, if Rahul,Shikhar,Chet, Vijay and Ajinkya have a look at their horrible batting  averages in SA and England they would realize that they would be lucky to even have played this series.

hope this performance will permanently shut the test door closed  on this complete hack....

Don't understand why mediocre players like Dhawan,Rohit or Rahane are termed as class players these guys are mediocrities at best but the status they have in India it's disappointing.
