Always conservative with your approach and afraid to take bold decisions. There's also some regional bias still dwelling within him and a bitter person to the core. Keep him away from the Indian Cricket. Not sure how much you remember his time but sourav finished aakash chopra by playing yuvi as a test opener. Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Not arguing if Pujara should be in ODI team or not but he hasnt played LOI for such a long time, you cant just bring him back and put him in WC team. Link to comment

Its a sad fact, but not all cricketers are mentally astute enough to recognize and keep pace with the game's evolution. This is what leads to the existence of "In my days, we did this - it should still work today" brigade. I have a lot of love for gangu for his contributions to the Indian team as a player, and as captain. He should get proper credit for instilling a protocol in the team management to give new players a decent proper run before being dropped - without him, our selectors could well have gone down the road that greenbro selectors still can't avoid. Chopping and changing constantly and screwing the team over. Our current team mgmt still makes mistakes, but for better or worse, the selectors tend to stick with new players for an extended period. Sure, it leads to the occasional Shardhul Thakur, but that's cost of doing business. And Saurav's captaincy was instrumental in getting such a policy in place. But tactically, Ganguly was never a great captain. And his public advocacy of Pujara for ODI cricket in 2019 is more evidence of that. Cricketics 1 Link to comment

Indeed Ganguly instilled that factor od “long run” but wasn’t the best captain in terms of tactics and shrewd mind. Link to comment
Vk1 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Not to belittle ChePu.. but just wonder how many balls can he clear the fence if he gets throwdowns from a machine in the middle of the pitch. Ganguly's frustration is actually really bad news for us.. our worldcup chances are still totally on top 3 Edited March 17, 2019 by Vk1 Link to comment

NOt slambang sloggers. Everybody that has seen Subhman Gill has already pronounced him as a future legend. Although he missed a couple of chances, it was too soon too drop him altogether. This guy can win a match on his own. India is known for producing such type of batsmen. Not sloggers, muscle hitters. Yeah totally agree , not a big fan of sloggers . May be we can afford one in the lineup , beyond that it’s impossible for the batting to come good consistently. Am actually happy shubman is not in contention, as expected he was dropped after a game but under this TM his confidence would have been destroyed. He’s better off playing domestic for another year and improve his game . Link to comment
