Ankit_sharma03 Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Rahane shud have sacrificed his wkt, Kohli was better set and far superior batsman Jaddu in Ct 2017 shud have sacrificed his wkt rather throwing pandya at deep end, jaddu has been guilty of same many times. If its between Kohli and rohit in ODI i get it as both are at par but rahane is miles behind kohli . tweaker and Stan AF 1 1
AuxiliA Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Runouts happen suddenly, there's no time to think. It's instinctive to save oneself first in a run out scenario. If you're going to spend time and energy teaching players to sacrifice when necessary, you might as well teach them to run properly in the first place. sorak, velu, BacktoCricaddict and 2 others 5
maniac Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 That is not something you teach someone. Things like play for the team and other values are learnt when you are ages 5-9.
Lone Wolf Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Wait what!! I agree but that's what happens mostly except Jaddu Pandya case.. That was criminal. Today's case was instant.. It was just poor call & Rahane hit that too well.
Nikola Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 There is difference between what jaddu did in ct and what rahane did today. It was poor call by rahane and even if he would have ran there then kohli might have been run out on other end as well.

maniac Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Just saw the video and there was nothing selfish about it just poor judgement. Also looking at where Rahane was stuck, it did look like he didn’t have enough time to cross over and sacrifice. Giving him the benefit of doubt but should have carried on with more grit after that. I remember Viru getting runout in the Nzl test in 2009 due to Gambhir but then Gambo went on to play a brilliant knock followed by God of course to win India yet another great win.

He chipped in with his obligatory 40-odd. He's like an Ajeeth conundrum.

I think they are overanxious to shield Rahane from the spinner.
Cricketics Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 You don't teach this stuff. This is pyschology and how you react at a given point. It's called improvisition, ,but in grand scheme of things it is called "Cognitive Behavior". It has been part of my research at uni and work. We need to do different mind and reaction activities in life on daily basis to improve cognitive behavior. The mind has to train to react to different situations or else we can't expect to see the results we want. I won't dive too much into science and pyschology and bore you unless you want to discuss this further, but this is how these things work. Rahane either has to face these things few times in his life to change or he has to go through something big in his life where he is impacted in a way where he has to learn to sacrifice. His intention isn't to not sacrifice, its just his actual reaction on the field is a natural reaction of a human which is to "Oh my god, we are in trouble" instead of "OMG, my partner is in trouble". Humans react this way.

Rahane could have crossed if he had kept running .... he called, ran (with Kohli sprinting), and stopped express bowling 1

It all happened very fast. Wait are we saying Rahane did this on purpose or with devious intent?
zen Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Just now, maniac said: It looked more out of instinct than a calculated thought. It all happened very fast. Wait are we saying Rahane did this on purpose or with devious intent? The discussion is on intentionally stopping after making the call .... which is not acceptable when the guy at the other end is on 70+ and when his wkt could turn the game What ultimately was needed was the maintaining of focus, something the Australians largely did, and a brief loss of concentration, something Rahane regrettably offered when he called for a run to Hazlewood's left at mid-off, only to reverse his decision when he saw the fast bowler was neither slow nor clumsy in getting to the ball and sending a return in perfectly to Lyon at the non-striker's end. Rahane's exasperation was clear in his reflexive f-bomb and immediate apology to Kohli, but the damage had been done. https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/australia-vs-india-1st-test-2020-21-ajinkya-rahane-blinks-and-australia-swoop-1244464

Wait are we saying Rahane did this on purpose or with devious intent? I imagine here's what happened. VK to AMR: BC, iss Lyon ko main samhaal loonga, tu bas singal le le. AMR: Ek dum sahi bola. Taiyaar reh. AMR (to himself): Mid-off cha aali kade gap aahe. Hoon jaayil. Lyon bowls, AMR tries to tap it into the gap. His mind is more than ready to get away from the spinner, and tricks him into thinking he found the gap. He calls and runs. Rest we know. Edited December 17, 2020 by BacktoCricaddict maniac 1

Just watched the highlights. It was the last ball of Lyon's over. So, this is not a valid explanation.
