goose Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 the 64 billion dollar question - is this just the 'boss is away' effect or a genuine gulf in captaincy. if the former then sacking Kohli is short sighted but most think it's the latter Link to comment

4Dhruv7 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Should make 3 captains for 3 formats now. Rahane for Test Virat for ODI Rohit for T20I Link to comment
maniac Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Not as captain but c’mon the guy is still one of the greatest batsmen in the world Rahane/Ash/Rohit in tests Rohit in LOI’s Let Kohli enjoy the game Link to comment

Lone Wolf Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) I seriously doubt we need Kohli the batsman & Kohli the bowler... He has done jack shi* as a batsman the last 1.5 years. Our team has enough quality & is bigger than a individual. But we have to bear with him.. It is what it is. Edited January 19, 2021 by Lone Wolf Link to comment
Adamant Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 3 hours ago, R!TTER said: Actually the pitches in those series were also much spicier! Batting you probably remember Kohli scored some runs, do you remember his big effin failures? Walked across the stump to flick(?) a ball against Philander chasing a modest total in the first test. Same in the first test vs Eng, except against Ben *ing Stokes who was bowling first change & we had Pandya set at the other end. Played an innocuous front foot lunge against Moen in the fourth test, Rahane was set at the other end, we collapsed after his tame dismissal For such a "champion player" & "master of chases" he sure has a * tonne of brainfades! Heck if I count his LO failures you'll have nothing to post Here we go again. Ek question mai nipta dunga tumhe Please list Sachin tendulkar top 3 performance in winning chases away from home(tests obviously) Then do the same for Dravid Then Gavaskar Link to comment

Do you have an idea tha the GOAT steve Smith avgs 30 in 4th innings. And for each of Kohlis failure in 4 th innings i can give you three of smith. Does not change the fact that Smith is the best Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Almost zen like dressing room will turn into chaos lol. I know we can't do it over and over without ace players. But whenever he captains it is almost like our batting looks weaker than it is. Bowling is okay. Link to comment
BacktoCricaddict Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Imagine this. Siraj: Virat Bhai, short mid-on chahiye hamein. Yeh catch degaa. Kohli: BC, jo field diyaa hain, waise ball Daalo Siraj: Jinks Bhai hota toh detaa ... iss liye jeetkar aaye. Kohli: ^*^$%^$@%$#%$#@%$^$^ sorak and Forever Indian 2 Link to comment
Yoda-esque Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 There are clearly two better leaders in Rohit and Rahane..Kohli will find his job untenable if he continues with his ways ,now that the youngsters have seen all alternate form of leadership Link to comment
