Drop kohli David. You re a legend. Don't be a pussy-cat. If kohli isn't performing, drop him. 

As coach the job is to help him not drop a player of that calibre

He wasnt given much of a choice 

 

“The Board told him, he can’t continue at the NCA at the same salary. It’s not feasible. And moreover, the BCCI has not been able to find a coach of a similar stature. If he wants to continue working with Indian cricket, then taking the Team India job is going to be his only option”, top sources in the know told TOI.

Find it totally BS.

 

BCCI pays 3.5 crs to jokers like R Sridhar and Vikram Rathour. Dravid getting 5.5 crs as NCA Head (plus coach of India A and u-19 WC teams) isn't that big a deal.

If he has been ****, that **** needs to be dumped. Don't pile on more ****. 

 

What calibre? The calibre that has an average of 26 over the last 2 years? 

 

Sure he can help him. All I am saying is if it doesn't work out,he needs to be booted out. Go rework in ranji. Build your confidence. Come back stronger. 

 

But kohli is too proud and haughty to go down that path. That's why I feel his end is near. If he turns it around then by all means I will be more than happy for the team. Just don't see it in him anymore.

Great . Let the Dravidian era begin . 
We will win a lot of trophies heron . Kohli cannot get dravid ousted like he did with Kumble . 

Iske peeche Dada hai.. Dada couldnt take kumbles insult.. he kept quiet. But he never forgives and forgets.. slowly he started cutting kohlis wings.. just to think of it leading England 2-1 at home, nearly winning first test not a bad achievement.. other captains would have been in state of gloating.. but kohli had to resign from t20 captaincy… dada in his book and all interviews have said how indebted he was to dravid for making so many crucial runs ( adelaide 2003 which led to indias first win in aus after 18 yrs), keeping wickets ( dream run to final 2003) .. they grew up together.. and they became a part of big 4.. dada even made laxman the mentor of CAB.. even rathour was his appointee.. sachin viru laxman zaheer zak kaif all are very close.. news is around that kaif would have been the asst coach if ricky accepted offer of coaching india.. and dada has very good relationships with ponting ( bid crazy for him in 2008 ipl and got him), graeme smith ( smith himself acknowledged) and also all pakistan players ( shoaib, rameez, just see any pak youtube videos they have genuine respect for him) .. aise koi banta nahi bcci President.. you need connections and relationships..from being harrassed as being a quota player, to scoring century in lords.. bhoole to nahi mujhko.. from being dropped by team india , shunted out from captaincy to being the bcci president  and probably next icc chairman.. dada raj has just begun..

Nah! He wouldn't dare.

Dravid is synonymous  with respect. 

Besides the kohli of today is a deadbeat on his way out person. Ipl was his last chance to save some power. He is powerless now.

3.5 crores to those? 

 

I'm sure Jhonty and Mahela would come for 1 cr.

Don't need to be his close buddy. He is too arrogant to even play tour games. It's beneath him. He won't improve if he is too haughty for his own good. 

 

2 years plus is a long time. He needs to regroup fast. He is losing his reflexes. Teams are figuring him out. Big 3 players are all ahead of him. 

 

If he doesn't perform he will and he should be dropped. Period. 

 

I dont give a damn about past players. Talk about the present. India needs ro move on from this pathetic superstar culture.

That ill take if he hasnt scored runs overseas

players have had longer ones.........it takes a lot out captaining 3 fomrats

No he isnt loosing any reflex (its just a technique issue which naseer hussain n co did a show in depth on Sky sports)

 

Everyone will be ahead at some stage, no one will be number uno for 15 yrs

Smith is.

smith isnt good in all 3 formats , kohli has been.everyone has their plus n minuses. Neither smith has had captaincy burden of 3-4 formats for 7 yrs

Even smith downfall will come, no one will escape it greatest of greatest will have n has had . 

 

in 2020 smith avg 18 , kohli 19 ( ppl didnt play enough test) this yr both eng series have been extremely tough to bat and apart from rohit n root everyone has struggled. Kohli avg 29 (29 in diff condition isnt exactly horrible)

smith won a world cup for australia in odi which is supposed to be kohli's best format albeit in home conditions. Kohli never won a WC for india or any icc tournament for the matter based on his individual performance. He won a WC under dhoni when he wasnt the key figure. 

 

Smith scored still scored a century vs india in the 3rd test despite struggling for form due to WOrld class indian bowling. 

Kohli is yet to WIN us a crucial test series away through his own individual performances in SENA. 

 

kohli has a chance now in 2021 and 2023. He needs to relieve himself from captaincy and play as a pure batsman. I feel he may hit 35is average post 2021 in tests. maybe 40 ish with a crap strike rate in odi. I just dont think he is all that good technically. He has been found out. He lacks power now. He isnt the same player. happy to be proven wrong. I just dont see it. He still fishes outside off.

Unless they were just using it to pressurize dravid to accept the role
