Is Rohit-Dhawan pair ideal for T20s?

[zen]

In ODIs, they are seen as slow but still ok as the batsmen get relatively more time in that format. In T20s when playing on batting paradises, do we need two openers with SR of around 130 vs at least one with a much higher SR? Are we confusing the formats?

Rahul Tripathi should be the opener in T20Is.

Rohit is good in this format....it's genju which is a problem...but last year he was in great form in t20i...

Batting till #8 .... RRR around 12, mainly due to Pant or it could have been 15+

We never have a flying start unlike some other teams. One can beat down on bowlers as much as they do here but these 2 aren't the best T20 pair.

Never been exposed in T20Is .

Aur sideline karo Rahul ko, bloody chewts.

I think Rohit got out at wrong time.

[Sandeep99]

Rahul is out of touch and out of order... I say let's open with Pant.. can't do any worse than Dhawan..

These guys can only get to 50 of first 6 on a good day , while most teams would target 75+ . That’s about 20 runs to make up on flat pitches , either chasing or setting targets
