ShoonyaSifar Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I always felt if Ratna had tried to come out of Dhoni's shadow after the 2013 CT, he could have been a very good IPL captain and would have had a longer and more fulfilling LOI career. He was an excellent captain for UP when he led them. But never got to lead a side on a full time basis. Not sure why he was content being the number 2 to Dhoni at CSK.

Because Raina like most clutch players became hit and miss after they hit a certain peak. More misses than hits as career progresses. You can’t have players like that as leaders. Had he moved away from the CSK eco system he would have faded away a lot sooner: Vilander 1 Link to comment

His own coach said that in public that he has become non serious I think the day dhoni gave up on him he gave up on himself. He became fat and unfit. Also never showed the hunger to improve. He never improved on the short ball problem and in fact let it get to him. All his peers who succeeded improved with every season be it Kohli, Rohit or even Pujara. Pujara actually still can’t play bounce and short ball but he had the resolve to take it on the body and survive till bowlers bowl in his zone. Link to comment

I think that is the case because deep down he knows he has overachieved & is ready to enjoy some family time & dabble into cricket coaching etc sorak and maniac 2 Link to comment

This is what separates players in the end. The guy was equally touted to be next big thing with Rohit n Kohli , even a lesser talented jadeja just kept improving.. Link to comment
maniac Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 The best coaches and captains are usually the ones with hunger and with the most to prove. Bharat Arun and T A Shekhar are the best coaches in the country that changed Indias bowling fortunes.Lal Chand Rajput is one of the most underrated coaches in the country, look at the kind of players he has with Zimbabwe and still manages to once in a while beat or compete with mid- low tier teams like Bangladesh,WI,SL and Pakistan. Even a crazy guy like Yograj made Yuvraj (no pun intended) into a diamond because of the politics he might have faced in cricket. I am so thankful that he faded away before he became a LoI captain and I shudder if he becomes a coach. He is at best yes man and should be kept away from such roles. Having said that he is a cheerful and extremely likeable guy. He will make a perfect administrator as he can communicate with everyone and is pretty much non controversial. Commentary well I haven’t seen anything analytical from him ever so not sure there. Cricspin 1 Link to comment

The bench strength wasnt as high at that time to so they were retained or bought most times. Whereas u guys like mishra, rayudu, nehra kept working hard n hence did make comebacks also. Now with more bench strength IPL is becoming ruthless. so such cases wont or rarely happen now SK_IH 1 Link to comment
