When we are winning bilaterals then process matters, when we lose then odis don't matter, only wc does. Which we also haven't won

it seems like he sees pant as a member of the test team. all these soundbytes about pant's wicketkeeping and all round game from the TM and Kohli seem to suggest that he's not in consideration for the loi teams because they keep comparing him to dhoni. the centuries he has scored abroad in red ball cricket will buy him some rope considering that Saha is not young and picks up injuries.

No, Saha is his #1 keeper in tests, pant will the 'panic button' option in case we lose first test and batting order fails, then knee-jerk reaction will be drop Saha get pant. If Kohli could, he might even play KL as test keeper, but he knows that is too much to expect from Rahul. Pant is persona non-grata till Kohli's in charge..he shld focus on domestics and improve his game looking at post-Kohli period

Kohli BC MC then stop getting the money for these matches and stop wasting our time and he still thinks that Jadeja played a good innings.

Kaptaan fool,idiot,ass,halfwit,nincompoop,clown,buffoon,blockhead,imbecile,moron,...Kohli..:mad:

Kohli: Two pretty good games, great for the fans. Particularly impressed how we finished the game. First half we let things slip away. I think Saini and Jadeja showed great character, as I said one-day cricket in this calendar year is not as relevant like T20Is and Tests. A game where we could have taken chances and capitalised. We could definitely consider changes, we have nothing to lose now. No messages were sent to Jadeja or Saini. We didn't know Saini can be as good with the bat. We want guys to figure out situations themselves.

 

These are the comments of a captain who has just lost a series. No remorse but lots of shamelessness and full of arrogance. Such behaviour typically portends a disaster.

This shows how clueless he is about his own franchise players,this is moronic to say he wasn't aware Saini could bat,this is laughable,plays 2month long IPL every year and yet not able to gauge his own players

Like me ask this question to all of you.


If Pandey, Pant or Gill played ahead of Jadhav, does team India win tonight?

  It takes just one ball to get out , so no one can say with 100% certainty  But to start with you must make a selection which has a sound reasoning behind it  which has chances of contributing towards team win. ,  . 

 When you select someone over another there should be some sound logical sense behind that move .

 The questions to be answered  :- 

1. Is Kedar  selected over others as he also  backs up as 6th bowler  ?-   Well that is not the case for the last 1 year almost.

2. Is he the young talent who is going to be core player of the future and hence this is the investment for future -  ??  He is 34 + .

3. Is the best player in india  after  VK, Rohit , KL , Iyer  -- ?   Big If   ...

4. Is he one of the best fielder  going around  -- ?

5. Is he in Red hot form of late and hence preferred  -??   - When was the last time he hit a 50 against a good attack ??

 

Which of the above Kedar ticks ??    Not even one .

That is the reason for heartburn.

This is typical of kohli, and indicative of why he is terrible in grooming youth. He often gives back-handed compliments to youngsters when they do well, or praises them insincerely only to drop them like hot potatoes in very next match. Even Kuldeep has decent batting ability, but Kohli is blind to it and can only see Bhuvi, Thakur and Jadeja as his lower order bats. "We want guys to figure out situations on their own" is just lazy way of saying, we just turn up for games and roll with it. Wtf expects u to send messages from dugout, but if u are not discussing such scenarios like tail playing with one set batsmen, or lower order improving their batting...then what is the backroom staff there for? Just carry a physio and massuese and be done with it!

Well iam not the selector but let me think.. Bumrah missed a lot of cricket and is yet rusty, so he needs as many matches to get to speed. Big test series coming up.

While Kohli being rested doesn't really help the opposition either...i thought you knew this after being blanked in the Asia Cup twice last year.

India is atg 11 atm  pakistan is not:giggle:

Just because T20 WC is being conducted this year so ODIs become unimportant ?!! Captain Kohli does give such statements every once in a while after losing matches.

I have no problems with team India losing. The issue I have is the selection of players and the way the team goes about either setting targets or chasing.

 

Did this team really believe it succeeded in the 2019 WC by getting to the semis? It flattered them completely.

 

England, Australia, NZ are teams that are all better than India.

 

On a swinging seaming pitch I would even back Pakistan to smash India.

Captaining the Indian cricket team should be considered as the second greatest honor in Indian society.

 

Its a privilege and Kohli is f**king it up. 

 

To justify a 34 Jadhav selection is obvious that Kohli's best interest is what suits him and is best for him.
