putrevus Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 What is going on with him. On these pitches also he is not lasting new ball. So many people were going on giving excuses for him.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Kothili, UrmiSinhaRay and Switchblade 1 1 1
Austin 3:!6 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Pretty sure he wont be a sure starter in Australia. One of Vijay or Dhawan will be back.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk UrmiSinhaRay, Switchblade and velu 1 2
Vk1 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Enough is enough.. he should be told to correct flaws in domestic cricket and not while playing tests.. also it's very difficult to play well in all three formats. There is hardly anyone out there who does well in tests and t20s at the same time. Virat is a freak and an exception. Ideally I would like Rahul to modify his game around Tests and ODIs. beetle, UrmiSinhaRay, Switchblade and 1 other 1 3
putrevus Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 He is holding his bat weird and has become such a dominant bottom handed player. If I were him , I would go and request Sunny to to look at his technique and seek his advice.Sunny had that impeccable balance.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Laaloo Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Rahul has been a dissappointment. You can't make excuses for him no more. He's had plenty of chances now in tests to prove himself. Alas its going to be a huge waste of talent ;(( beetle, velu, UrmiSinhaRay and 1 other 1 2 1

He should get Australian series atleast first two tests and then they should take a call on him.

Definitely I would like to give him full series until the end of the year but the question is will the selectors give him the chance? UrmiSinhaRay 1

They should. Taking two newbie openers Shaw and Mayank to Aus is a big gamble. Shaw has done well in flat Home tracks, but whether the same flamboyance will work on pacy bouncy Aus pitches is still unknown. It’ll most likely be Dhawan, Shaw and Rahul. UrmiSinhaRay 1

T20 has screwed him over. UrmiSinhaRay 1

He had a few bad games, but he's done well for Essex. I'd give him one last chance.. But the selectors would pick Dhawan, particularly when he gets so much backing from Kohli Edited October 13, 2018 by bowl_out UrmiSinhaRay 1

Bigg Brother Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Rahul himself is to blame here. Get ready people for thighslap and shameless smile after drop catch in Australia. UrmiSinhaRay 1

Scored 64, 10, 90, 51 in low scoring games. Rahul's problems are against the swinging and seaming ball ... basically movement by seamers. UrmiSinhaRay 1
Suhaan Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 I think Rahul has no clue where his off stump is It implies he is not in right frame of mind He needs to stay calm He has all the ingredients to.make a great batsman He still is the second best bat in the team UrmiSinhaRay and Kothili 1 1
wanted_desi Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Pressure makes diamonds. KL Rahul will come out of this poor form, and that point of turn will be in Australia. UrmiSinhaRay and Kothili 1 1
G_B_ Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Australia IMO is last chance saloon for him. Its not going to be easy against the aussie pace battery with the new ball. UrmiSinhaRay and GolGappe 1 1
