IndianRenegade Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Unnecessary issue, what did he expect? Link to comment
kirkutfan Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Big deal- so the guy got hyped in a game and fell afoul of a silly rule book. I don’t want some sissy bureaucrats to prevent me from watching the best players perform their craft and give it all they got. I know Rahane is a goody goody boy. There is room for both.

rtmohanlal Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 it would be a blessing in disguise if he is banned from the remaining tests in the series... Link to comment
RajBan Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Kohli, if allowed to continue like this, will lead to introduction of red card in cricket. Link to comment
The Realist Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Don't see the problem. A bit of needle is good for the game. Otherwise it becomes a sport played by pansies in pyjamas who brush each other with pillows. express bowling, 9zaesm, nevada and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

Clarke Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Plz tag VC as well, that vice-ness has to count for something. He's done with his customary 50 per home series anyway. nevada 1 Link to comment

Well said. When Rahane gets out for a duck and England steamroll India these pathetic bunch of fan jokers will be happy Link to comment

Thats way more than a silly rule book I love how juvenile people always admire false bravado when the real men show real fight only when required It’s not a question of admiration. It’s an issue of accepting different personalities. He expressed a strong opinion on the call. That isn’t enough of a reason to take the extreme step of preventing a player from displaying his skill set. Or for that matter depriving a fan from enjoying a contest between the best that countries can put together. Now you may not like the guy as a person. Fair enough. Don’t let him baby sit your kids. But we don’t have to deal with him at that level. We just get to watch what he has to offer as a player. express bowling and neel roy 1 1 Link to comment

Otherwise it becomes a sport played by pansies in pyjamas who brush each other with pillows. What he did was akin to flogging a dead horse. Not needling. I have no issue with needling. As you say its needed. But there is a strategic time and place. He does the same in the IPL with umpires. We all know the outcome. Truth is somebody like Ashwin is aggressive when he needs to be in the right avenues. GoldenSun 1 Link to comment
G_B_ Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 And whats going to happen is when india do need to build pressure on the umpire in the remaining two tests kohli would have used up his aggression with the umpires at a useless time. I am sure if he appeared on who wants to be a millionaire this poor loser will use his three lifelines on the first question itself after doing mc bc to the host. Zero forward planning. This poor tactics like these which suggest to be atleast we will win nothing with kohli. Poor selection (nadeem was a joke.) And poor tactics are his hallmarks. kohli, GoldenSun and Forever Indian 3 Link to comment
kirkutfan Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Or, it might make the umpires more alert in the effort to get it right. Just depends. Also, it’s not like Kohli has changed all of a sudden. He has always needed to be in aggressive mode in order to give himself the edge he needs to be successful. To expect the guy to become a quiet reserved Rahane would be as unreasonable as expecting Rahane to be confrontational. Rahane might take the position of not pressuring the umpires at all. Other stuff like picking Nadeem, I see your point. But even there, I bet if Rahane becomes the new captain, after the newness wears off we’ll see arguments against his decisions and even wonder why he wasn’t just a little more aggressive. And if current trends continue, we would definitely ask if he is consistent enough to justify his own spot in the XI. So nobody is perfect. nevada 1 Link to comment

Yeah sissy bureaucrats should just allow the players to break the rules and cheat because they're best players. Kuch bhi Link to comment
Serpico Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Nitin earlier warned him for running in the danger area, so the King's ego got hurt. This is the warning for all future umpires, you should just let king do whatever he wants on the field, otherwise you're a sissy bureaucrat who is ruining the game nevada 1 Link to comment
