putrevus Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) 16 hours ago, nevada said: Kohli is a one trick pony. He is a very good front runner but backs to the wall, not so much. His captaincy is no better - comfortable only when the team is nicely ahead, on pins and needles when behind. How is he front runner, he had led teams from 0-1 down in two series and won both series. He scored twin hundreds in biggest chase, if he had any support his twin hundreds in 2014 would be called greatest knocks. His problem is he never had any support. So stop being a prisioner of the moment. Pant being great does not diminish Kohli's greatness. Pant is great for wicket keeper batsman, he is not in the same league as Kohli as batsman.

ShoonyaSifar Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Ranked number 7 in World Test rankings for batsmen . Perhaps the first keeper batsman in recent times to be in the top 10 rankings for batsmen. Imagine the joke of a TM did not find him good enough for the Adelaide test and if not for 36 all out, would have dropped him from the test side beetle, Laaloo, Vk1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment

How did I miss this gem. At the age of 23, despite being the blue eyed boy of the then TM, Kohli the Test batsman was getting bounced out in WI looking totally clueless, Pant the test batsman has been setting new benchmarks for the Indian keeper-batsmen, despite being publicly mocked and criticised by his own TM. beetle, nevada and Vijy 3 Link to comment

I am not talking about stats (because ganguly & azhar had high avgs after 15-20 tests) but impact. Edited March 10, 2021 by Vijy Vk1 and beetle 1 1 Link to comment

I repeat incase you are slow to understand. Pant is not in the same league as Kohli as batsman. When he does surpass him as batsman we will revisit the issue. beetle 1 Link to comment
Sean Bradley Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Absolutely!! without a shadow of doubt, but the gap between Dhoni the LOI player and Pant the LOI player is twice or thrice than Pant and Dhoni in tests.

At 23, Pant the test batsman is twice more effective than what Kohli was at the same age. And only at 23, Pant, the test batsman has led India's charge in two of our most historic test series wins, something Kohli, the test batsmt will never ever be able to add to in his CV. ICC ranking of 7, something which took Kohli the age of 26 to achieve. Plain simple facts. Everything else is a sheer rhetoric beetle, Vijy and f20143g70 3 Link to comment

Pant Respect its disrespectful to even compare dhoni to pant in tests. at this point pant should be compared to the likes of real elite top tier keeper batsmen like ? lmao only gilly is above pant. pant destroys everyone else. ATG pant already imo. change your ATG team now. everyone. make sure this name is etched in that list forever. name is rishab pant. New guy, beetle and Rasgulla 1 1 1 Link to comment

LordPrabhzy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Pant is already ranked 7 in the ICC test rankings(Kohli is 5) - above Pujara and Rahane who are sliding down the table. Dhoni was never even in the top 20 batsmen i tests ever in his career. Big fat egg on those who didn’t believe in Pant. Mosher and Vijy 2 Link to comment
dilliboy Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Dhoni was an ATG ODI player but a very mediocre test batsmen... That Pant is already ahead of him in Tests should come as no surprise However, I would like Rishabh to exceed his LOI record too.. He certainly has the talent to do that, let's see if he is backed enough Link to comment
