Sandz Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 2 hours ago, Lord said: One thing people forget is how Shastri-Kohli used to chop and change youngsters especially bats while not applying the same to seniors. It messed up KL after he was dropped for Dhawan after successful 2018 tour .He used to be free flowing batsman then but became a pale version of himself. Was only made permanent later but more to hide their own failures. Now youngsters who get chance don't get binned so soon. As a result Gill has become premier batsman in LOI whereas under Shastri we would have still been playing Dhawan. They should have started blooding youngsters from at least a year ago, we should have had one new bowler by now , but we don’t , we don’t have a single new fastbowler who is ready for test cricket, BCCI doesn’t have a transition plan at all, fukkin inept.

Jay Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 4 hours ago, Lord said: Sen has been injured and didn't play any FC cricket this year. Rana has only played 5 FC games. Idiotic to think they'd been effective in overseas conditions in high pressure game like this straightaway. If they failed people like you only would have bashed them. Whose fault is that for not preparing them and getting these players ready. It's dravid. He will keep playing seniors till they are in a wheelchair. Was sen injured? Thought he came back? Prasidh injury hurt us bad. He was next in line. He would have been deadly here. Link to comment

BlueBlood Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Coach is only good for strategy. On the field, Rohit Sharma is easily the worst captain in the past decade. No drive, motivation, or even strategy. He was lauded as Mr Aggression and "new brand of cricket". It all lasted against Bangladesh, SL and WI minnows. He got fully exposed against better teams. Yet idiot fans on this forum due to some bias or the other don't address the elephant in the room which is absolute pathetic captaincy. At least Kohli was motivated and focused in Tests. I wonder why even give Rohit captaincy if he is so disinterested in the format, make someone like Thakur captain who has fight in him. Lord and Frustrated 2 Link to comment

Didn't Siraj, Natarajan and Saini debut in Australia...when our established bowlers were falling. Even batters like Ganguly and Dravid debut in England, KL Rahul debuted in Australia. That's just an excuse, nothing else. Vijy 1 Link to comment
