puneet28 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 He is just mentally lost. Can't imaging same guy score 7 consecutive 50s last year against tough tracks. I hope he will come back soon and today were first signs though he played some silly shots in between. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

KL cannot afford to fail more. It would be better for him to come back when he sorts out his weaknesses (found out vs incoming balls) and strikes good form where he can be consistent UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

He hasn't played any domestic cricket for over a year . Hes clueless these days , but being picked for LOI teams and not getting games would not have helped . Hes mostly spent the last 12 months on the bench between playing these test matches . UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Well i meant if he had been sacked before this tour he could have played domestic matches. Doing so there would be more chances for him to stay on wicket longer due to lesser bowlers. Now probably just few matches are remaining in Ranji and the opportunity to let him bat longer in match situation is lost. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

In last 6-8 months hes hardly had any , even compared to likes of Vihari , Pandey , Nair , Shaw etc who are either playing for State/A team when not in the Indian team , KL has been warming the bench for ODI side where hes hardly played a match .

I feel we need to start releasing players for domestic matches in case they are not playing the next international match, something which few countries already do. Link to comment
