You are underestimating him as a batsman. He is obviously challenged by short ball but it's not that extreme. He has a wonderful record and has not anything wrong to get axed from ODI. 

 

He hasnt played enough ODI just 21. It isnt just short ball their are many issues he has

I have high hopes for him.. he is the best fielder in domestic circuit in India at this moment..

Wonderful. Forget batting and bowling skills, anyone with great fielding skills should always be rated higher than specialist

[ShoonyaSifar]

Dhawan back to form 153(118) in a chase of 316.

Means one Odi or t20 he ll play one blistering knock and no idea about the rest. But hopefully we will win that one handsomely..

He has been impressive in those ODIs. No.4 shouldn't be juggled around with for atleast 20 more matches. After a long while someone is getting a chance to own that spot & has done reasonably well. 

If he doesn't evolve his game & work on those issues he ll get the boot, so win win for India. I think he has very good temperament & will succeed in long run.

Agreed he has done well but my take on his is he is not a better batsman then guys like pant n gill who are sitting out. He aint an X factor player either whom,  ill think of investing for some 70 odd games. Also my biggest issue with him and Nitish rana is they have to many problems not just one. This is where Rayudu fell behind to . 

 

Ill rather invest in guys like gill n pant who have lesser issues and are better batsman. If you ask me Iyer is a risky investment due to number of his issue which once started getting exposed will be tough to hide. Reason i mentioned 20 games was coz it a small time when problems dnt get found out, also their arent many quality bowling lineup to expose. He ll keep scoring against side who arent consistent with their bowling but when that tough side comes like how Aus screwed him twice at home n away it will be tough for him. Not to forget this guy was 3rd in the list of ppl in Indian team in dropping catches and he doesnt even play one format

Shreyas is incredibly consistent batsman. SKY has the X-factor but he is not consistent enough and his all round game will be tested when he plays for India. You look at their List A stats and sense will automatically prevail.

 

As long as Shreyas is performing with bat and scoring runs consistently in domestic and for India, he needs to be backed. He is only 25 compared to the likes of SKY and Manish who do not have many years left in them and he is averaging 45 in ODIs already. Unlike Rayudu, he hardly wastes deliveries.

 

It is expected that with his peak years left ahead, he can get only better with time rather than getting exposed, even that is also part of the learning curve. Mayank, KL, Pant and Shaw all have gone through this phase.

 

As for Shreyas blocking Pant's slot, latter has himself to be blamed for it. But he can perform and surely make a comeback.

Venkatesh Iyer batting 194 off 143 balls while coming in at 3 for MP.  I like this innings because it is against well known bowlers ... Kaul, Sandeep, Sran and Markhande.

 

He is a tall left handed batsman and powerful hitter. Cuts, pulls and drives with power. Plus he bowls seam up.

 

Has been picked up by KKR this year.

 

Here is a video of him batting

Do you have any videos of his bowling.

 

What is his pace like ?  Venkatesh is a tall guy and gets a bit of bounce.

Venkstesh is a powerful hitter bro. Looks good against fast-medium pace too.

 

I saw a bit of his bowling in SMAT.  Looked 125 to 135 range with a high release point. Not bad at all for a top order batsman.

Venkatesh Iyer run out for 198 off 146 balls.

 

Epic innings !!

Looks a cracking player.

 

 

In the KKR nets he would get batting practice against the genuine pace of Ferguson, Cummins, Prasidh, Mavi and Nagarkoti.

 

Should make him even better.

I wish it was broadcasted

Watched him bowl in the SMAT as well. Dont think pace is too high, but without speed gun would say a bit quicker than Shankar

How's he not a star in IPL already given he bowls too.

He was not picked even in the first round..only in the second time round did KKR pick him for 20L..could be a bargain if comes through.
