I think he played one test in SA .... so close behind Rahul UrmiSinhaRay 1

rtmohanlal Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Rahul is an out of the world talent. Actually destined to become an even better batsman than Bradman. The problem seems to be that Bambi mafia is pulling his legs all the way from Bambi while he is at the crease. Laaloo, Kothili, Number and 4 others 6 1
zen Posted October 13, 2018 Author Posted October 13, 2018 Till Rahul proves otherwise, let just call him the "nightwatchman"
Popular Post express bowling Posted October 13, 2018 Popular Post Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Rahul seems to have issues regarding focus and hunger for success. It is becoming increasingly apparent from his failures against this weak WI side compounded with his earlier failures. Even when he was in form, he was throwing his wicket away by playing casual shots after crossing 50. Maybe this is the reason why he is not being tried in ODIs. Kohli was talking about having a group of players in the team who want to succeed at all costs. Maybe Rahul is not one such guy yet. His talent is unmistakable ... but his temperament needs work. I hope he sorts things out. Edited October 13, 2018 by express bowling UrmiSinhaRay, Kothili, Laaloo and 7 others 2 1 7

Haha What has Rahul Done to Justify Being Compared with Bradman.Batting is Not only about Shots Case in point Yuvraj Thing.In Test Match Concentration Discipline Shot Selection Technique are as important if not more than Natural Talent.Problem with Rahul is he is not sure what type of batsman he wants to be .I think he is best as a dasher.

Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 2 innings ago he scored a 100 about his previous failures , he was batting in ENG n SA against one of the best ....ill say great attacks in their den as opener.....so it was going to be very tough His problem also of ball coming back has been found out to But no need to panic, failures are a part of learning Kothili 1
zen Posted October 13, 2018 Author Posted October 13, 2018 As many have pointed out, Rahul has technical problems w/ the incoming balls .... He seems to be aware of it and probably thinking he will get out to one soon while batting .... Now many batsmen have been "found out". It is how you come back that counts Kothili 1

beetle Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Send him back to play domestic. Let him get the hunger to succeed. Kothili, UrmiSinhaRay and zen 1 2
zen Posted October 13, 2018 Author Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Reminds me of how Kambli had to go back to rectify his weakness vs the short ball (off the field he was a bit naughty as well) .... and Kambli was a talent and had a great start to his career. In fact avgs 54-55 in tests .... and probably is the fastest to 1000 runs for Ind Edited October 13, 2018 by zen UrmiSinhaRay and velu 1 1
Straight Drive Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 What are his averages in SA, England and this WI series ? UrmiSinhaRay 1
prasen82 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 This is atrocious from rahul. On a pancake he scored leave apart that he has failed in 14 consecutive innings across 8 tests . Sorry I will need to get off this hype bandwagon. On a side note Feel sorry for karthik. At least he tried while free lunches doled out for everyone else .. UrmiSinhaRay and Kothili 1 1
Straight Drive Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 38 minutes ago, Straight Drive said: What are his averages in SA, England and this WI series ? The cumulative average versus SA, England and WI is 13.13.That batting average is like the batting average of specialist bowlers. Just checked his averages. Last 5 series the cumulative average is 24.41 (allrounders batting average) which is 13 runs less that his career average of 37.04. Surely he has to have a batting average better than tailenders or allrounders as can be seen in recent past.Hope he turns around the horrible bad patch that he is going through. SL - 28.66 SA series: 7.50 Afghanistan - 54 England - 29.90 WI - 2 beetle and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1
Khota Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 He needs to play domestic. Dhawan is ahead of him and I think Aggarwal should have had an opportunity. Kothili and velu 1 1
