gakgupta Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) KL Rahul is probably the most talented batsmen to debug in last 10 years...... Nevertheless he deserves to be dropped.... But I sincerely hope ...not just for Indian cricket but for intl cricket that he returns with a bang... Kohli has set a new bar on how to mishandle the batsmen.....doesn't know, if he started realising that Rahul is more talented than him or just bad at handling young talent... But I have seen him handle the bowlers really well....now indian bowlers are consistently taking 20 wickets and most of the credit goes to Kohli to bring such pace attack in place... Again brings back to the same question...is he just bad with handling batsmen ...esp when you know that he has put together a bowling unit which is threating.... Shaw, Gill & Vihari should have lots of attitude to survive this kind of captainship... It's so appaling to see how our captain shamelessly fall back on Rohit Sharma... Without his knowledge he is geopardising the world cup...because earlier we have seen that Rohit gets messed up when tried with different formats....so his ODI batting will be at great risk Sent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Tapatalk Edited January 3, 2019 by Laaloo raki05, Laaloo, UrmiSinhaRay and 8 others 2 2 2 2 3 Link to comment

fineleg Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Its the same for almost all dropped players, show your mettle again in domestics plus A-tours ...in the right format , and county cricket if possible and make your way back thro' sheer weight of runs/ or wickets.

Lannister Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) Kohli is a shameless individual. Can't believe he has again backed Rohit Sharma in place of Rahul. If it was any other player, atleast it would've been a fair call. This is just pathetic how he has taken control of Indian Cricket.

sandeep Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Rahul is going to have a tough time getting back into this team. He was the next one in line for the ODI opener slot as long as he held on to his test spot. If Mayank cements his test opening slot, then he's going to contend for LOI selection as well. I was really hoping that Rahul could sort out his mental woes and put it together, because he is a quality bat once he gets going. Its unfortunate for him and the Indian team that he couldn't.

Sandeep99 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 He is done and dusted. I hope he can find better career in IPL and modelling in instagram. Thanks for the services. construction430, UrmiSinhaRay, Kothili and 1 other 1 1 1 1 Link to comment
Straight Drive Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 With the 50+ knock on debut, Mayank Agarwal is certain starter for next test as well. Can't see a comeback soon with Agarwal safe guarding his spot and Shaw to walk in as other opener in next test series. UrmiSinhaRay and velu 1 1 Link to comment

His instagram obsession is very disturbing tho. He deserves to be dropped and not be picked till he scores a bucket load of runs in domestic.

Seems like you are no different from the herd that are starstruck, and have a hate-love relationship with them. So many fair weather fans who just want to bash the 'big name' when they don't deliver what "THEY" expect. Kothili and sandsaims 1 1 Link to comment

Just watch his cringy photos and the timing of them in away tours and it is obvious he has an obsession with Instagram. And this is coming from a person who was a KL Rahul fan much before 99.9% of the posters here. KL Rahul is the same guy who was posting bday wishes to Ishant 5 minutes after a crushing loss in Eng. On freaking twitter. As if he can't do it in person if that was so important. KL Rahul is getting distracted with social media and fame. It's a fact. If you want to be politically correct about it and not call it for what it is, so be it. manu4411, beetle, Khota and 3 others 1 3 2 Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 He ll be back definitely i have no doubts about it and as a better player Just a phase which has happened to many n most raki05, Khota and Ridgepi 3 Link to comment
beetle Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 The overhype went to his head very fast. Blame Bunty Sejdah more than Kohli. Can't blame kohli when someone has got so many chances. Khota, Ridgepi, Kothili and 1 other 1 1 1 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) Kindly do not blame others for rahul's failures. There would be plenty of opportunity for him to come back but meanwhile let us spend time praising the hardwork of Aggarwal and Vihari. He is too good to be ignored in the long run. He is going thru what most of the players go thru, a batters slump. A good coach and domestic will fix it.

How lamely we use this line....coz results arent coming Simple his technique has developed issues which has turned mental due to failures.....nothing more and changes dnt happen overnight specially when ur playing diff formats and on constant national duty . Its extremley hard these days with 3 diff formats ....this wud take months n months going back on drawing board Hype never gets in someone head its actually stardom and he is not star, the guy is warming benches in ODI....was told last yr after performing in test that he is the 3rd choice now. What among this will get in his head and actuallly what is their to get in head. If anything he is going through insecurity in an all already tough phase. If anything thats consistent is how lamely we use this line its gotten into someone head when we havent been even their to understand how it feels. Have heard this hear for every cricketer . Kambli , sreesanth, akmal, shehzad are the prime example of loosing their head and none of the present cricketer is acting like that Kothili 1 Link to comment

Its like cricket is easy and every player has god given right to be world class and a success. Sometimes player develop technical issues, fitness issues or get exposed by quality of oppo etc On ICF if dont do well its cos.... tattoos while should be like someone in 80s, not having a side parting and looking like a geek, spening time on social media and not sitting in hotel room staring at ceiling all day, going shopping as should not be allowed for months on tour to go anywhere apart from nets and room, having a girlfrind instead of in room on intenet with own hands like geeks here have to resort to, lazy, bad attitude as dont act like a geek on and off field, makes lots of money and should be on 20k a year (starter salary of IT geek, maybe less), arogant cos gun player so should be humble at all times and of course the main reason which is instagram obsession!

True, i would only care about how many runs he scores. It was right decision to drop him on that consideration. Apna internet package thodi na use kar raha hai Khatam kare ya na kare.
