What type of shot was that from Rohit Sharma?

[Trichromatic]

He should be dropped just for playing that shot.

 

 

[coffee_rules]

not interested in Test cricket, 5 IPLs , VC, 3 catches, who cares for accountability, He was playing postively for a win,

[Nikola]

Drop him from all formats for throwing it away 3 times in this series.

[PunterLog]

He should get the Kapil Dev treatment for that shot!

[Trichromatic]

33 year old, drafted directly as VC and keeps repeating same thing.

 

4 tests and not even a single top oder batsman has thrown his wicket so far like this.

[Real McCoy]

This proves that he is not for tests. He is 34 already. He has seen off the new ball and got out to a nothing ball to a spinner. no point continuing with him even at home. We have Mayank, Shaw to flat track bully the opposition and we have Gill.

[Real McCoy]

Even if he fixes all the technical chinks, he is mentally not there for the longer formats

[jf1gp_1]

yup it was disappointing. One can undestand pant getting out in that manner but not rohit

[urbestfriend]

That was one of the worst cricketing shot , I have ever seen. He has a brain fade at that moment, just like it happened in last match when he took on the short ball to hit a six. He doesn't have any match awareness and he is our VC. What a farce.

[zen]

Probably his last series in Aus Anyways 

[Forward Defence]

BCCI must devise a policy that for each irresponsible shot Rohit will be dropped for 3 LOIs against Sri Lanka. That may work wonders.

[Clarke]

The so called chanakya who is claimed to be master strategist behind many wins but isn't capable of not slogging in tests 

[Number]

Can't hold his inner Afridi for too long.

On the other hand I was surprised that he looked so good on this pitch. Unfazed by the bounce or movement and was scoring at will.

Pant doesn't play chip shot. It wasn't caught at ropes.

Was it a slog shot? Looked more like catching practice to me.

point was about showing aggression when it wasnt needed. he had hit a 4 in the over, why the need to dance down the track ?

[GautiMaan]

Even Lyon seemed embarassed by that

[express bowling]

The sad part is that  .... for the first time in his career, Rohit is looking technically equipped to handle good channel balls in SENA.

 

If he can channel his mind to bat a long innings, like he does in tests in India, it can be such a big plus.

 

1. Gill

2. Rohit

3. Pujara

4. Kohli

5. Pant

6. ????

7. Jadeja

 

is looking like a good test batting line-up.
