nevada Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Batting first today. If our middle order doesn't click today also, the team should be recalled. Link to comment
nevada Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Rain again? GTFOH! That troll Vaughan cries a river about conditions in India but what about this perpetual garbage weather in his country? What a farce, holding test matches in rain central! Link to comment

He gets a free pass. Forget asking him, no one even talks about his own lean patch. The commentators go "look at that average" as if he is in the form of his life. Vijy 1 Link to comment
Texan Posted August 12, 2021 Author Share Posted August 12, 2021 Ever seen a team play with 2 batsmen, a keeper-batsman, an allrounder and the tail? Jay and Lord 2 Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 even worse we have no capable replacements on the horizon,they should have been looking for them but these oldies have played for so long BCCI has neglected backups for the middle order completely. express bowling 1 Link to comment

cowboysfan Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 these guys are shameless, they will keep playing till someone kicks them out. Link to comment
putrevus Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) I think all of them are done.No point in carrying them any longer.Kohli can be given littler longer leash but other two are done. Edited December 3, 2021 by putrevus Link to comment

They will obviously keep playing as they want to maximize their playing days. Problem is with the selectors. All 3 of them should be dropped immediately. But no, selectors are meek mice who cannot challenge any experienced player. They are only good at dropping newbies when they see one bad performance. Useless seniors are persisted with endlessly. Also, another bigger problem is that no former cricketer is calling for their sacking. Why aren't people like Gavaskar who are so vocal on TV channels calling out for these players to be dropped?? He is the first to criticize when someone like Pant makes a mistake and he is pretty hard in his criticism of young players. But when experienced players keep failing, he and others will keep saying that they are just one innings away from rediscovering their form. God only knows when that one innings will arrive and how many Tests do we sacrifice for that one innings. cowboysfan and Vijy 1 1 Link to comment
putrevus Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) You can have one weak link in batting lineup but having all three main guys in five batsmen lineup is killing this team.Last three years we have seen the most inept batting ever.

To do well you need to acknowledge your failures first. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 there is no home advantage with these walking wickets on our team,i think we will struggle to even make the finals of the WTC this cycle. Link to comment

Yes we do. Vihari for pujara Sarfraz or sundar for rahane Shaw/Gill in MO for kohli. We will be fine. Just need to give the young ins chances. Vijy 1 Link to comment

Just need to give the young ins chances. We have at least 2 candidates for each of top 5. Just need to choose wisely based on conditions: Agarwal/Shaw (other options: Gaikwad/Easwaran/old man Panchal) Rohit/one of the above listed KLR/Vihari (KLR is better suited to middle order IMO) Iyer/Gill Sarfaraz/Sundar Edited December 4, 2021 by Vijy Link to comment
