Virat Kohli, Ravi Shastri unhappy over selector Chetan Sharma's decision to include Abhimanyu Easwaran

Scapegoats identified by the duo in case things go awry, which under the clown's leadership is a certainty. 

 

Young Easwaran has been among the runs in domestic cricket, hasn't even been given a chance in international cricket, way to throw him under the bus.

Shastri is just a pet. It's actually kohli frustration coming out of shastri mouth.

This is correct.

easwaran looks a compact platyer...whats wrong in giving him a chance. In england better to have a player who has a tight game 

[Sandeep99]

So a seasoned first class opener is not good enough for the clown? Indian cricket is a farce. I want team India to be beaten in all matches and all conditions and all tournaments until this clown is captaining us.

Kohli is not realising that by doing all these stunts, he is indirectly demotivating a budding opener. Even if he isnt upto standard according to him, this is not the way to do it. 

[ShoonyaSifar]

Enough of their nonsense. Boot them out right away if they are unhappy, put them on the next flight back to India. In Rahane we have an able enough leader as a stopgap arrangement and we will do better under him.

 

Feel for Easwaran though. Was with the team during Eng tests in India, has done everything possible to earn his place and then his captain-coach make him their target. I hope he gets support from seniors like Rohit, Pujara, Rahane and Ashwin. They should not the clown destroy another career.

Article says "Team management not happy with what they have seen of Eswaran in the nets"

 

But fans are not happy with what they have seen of Kohli on the field.. Time to boot him out as well.

[bowl_out]

Why wouldn't he realize that he has two more openers in the squad in Mayank and Rahul?

 

Makes me think Kapil is right.. This management has always been disrespectful of back up players in the squad... Same thing happened during the WC.. Replacement players suddenly come in and play ahead of existing players in the squad and nobody understood their roles..

Zero planning for No. 4 position..

 

Kohli touted Rayudu to be their first choice

Suddenly got him replaced with Vijay Shankar as the No.4 

But KL started at No.4, not Shankar

Didn't pick Pant, but picked DK instead 

And when someone was injured, Pant played ahead of DK in the XI.

 

Never seen a more confused captain.

[maniac]

I don’t rate easwaran. Typical domestic grafter but if he is picked he gets a shot if it’s his turn. As simple as that.

[beetle]

Feel bad for the poor guy.

What an ass of a captain we have!!!

He is just a bcci appointed captain. He will never be a leader of any team.

I wont be surprised if drops Pant or Rahul

[Sgattick10]

Easwaran asap needs to hit the gym, build 12 pack abs, have tattoo all over his body, bcome an IG star and do bhajan of Kohli. Thats his only chance

My guess is Dhawan & Rohit will start as openers with Rahul @ 4, then Dhawan will be dropped midway & Rahul pushed up to open. Meanwhile he ll be taking quick singles &  doubles at no.3.

Poore team ki maa bhen karega ye aadmi

Yes & he followed that up with this statement after the next match : 

"Virat Kohli on opening with Rohit Sharma in T20Is: Not a guarantee it’s going to continue in future"

This is King Kohli in a nutshell

That entire stunt was meant for ONLY one thing - to deny Kishan the opportunity to open and make a case for his WT20 selection ahead of Clown's pal Dhawan. After hitting a 50+ on his debut, which team first moves a youngster to number 4 and then drops him afterwards. 

[rollingstoned]

Even if they wanted someone else this is some man management and a vote of confidence for a young player who has earned his call up. Shame on them.
