At ICF level yes. At highest level no.

Don’t mix formats, he is a good allrounder in test cricket.

Khota you need to articulate it better.

 

A player needs to be picked on one skill and if he has an additional skill it is a bonus. If 2 batsmen are tied for a spot then maybe the guy with the extra skill can be considered. That could be anything. A bowler who can bat a bit or vice versa, good fielder etc.

 

Picking a player because he has 3d skills or he can do a little bit of this and that while not having one prime skill is a concern. I am on board on that one.

 

Thakur was picked as a 4th bowler in tests who could bat a bit and he did his job well. He flopped in T20 and has not added to the balance as his bowling in T20 has been lackluster.

 

There is a difference here

Bhuvi can be a cheap version of AllRounder…

He fluked his way in one format.

Poor man's version on a sunny day when batting and cloudy when bowling.

You can't fluke your way in Test cricket. 

Hogwash.

People running 100m have a different body than those running marathon.

100 m strong muscular body.

Marathon lean body with long legs short torso.

Swimming long torso short legs.

Plenty of examples out there.

A body expert on ICF says that cricketers cannot do two things - WKs should not bat

Yes, in order to do it consistently he needs time and opportunities. 

You posted above that he is finished as an all-rounder. So atleast wait before judging if he failed or succeeded.

Articulation is not my forte.

Tame baseball. All pitchers have long wingspan to generate arm velocity. Bats have hand eye coordination with tremendous eyesight and fast running. You cannot multitask. Impossible

You are being funny. Wicket keepers can bat some because xss e of hand eye coordination.

Nah. No two things can be done as that expert has convinced everyone on ICF

Nah. Cricket needs 11 specialist batsmen when batting and 1 WK + 10 bowlers when bowling … Need to rewrite for the playing 11, I mean 22

Fluked his was in 2-3 crucial away tests, when the odds were really stacked against us? Do you need this new stuff called LSD? Yes, when we expect more from him & teams plan him out that's when his real test will be. But let's not make light of his bowling or batting achievements just yet, FYI he's better in the longer formats than T20's at least IMO.
