[Serpico]

Most Ducks among Indian specialist batsmen 

 

Sehwag 16(178)

Vengsarkar 15 (185)

Kohli 14 (163)

Laxman 14(225)

Sachin 14 (329) 

[The Realist]

Most ducks as Indian Captain in a Calendar Year

4 Bishan Bedi in 1976
4 Kapil Dev in 1983
4 MS Dhoni in 2011
4 Virat Kohli in 2021*

Lets hope he doesn’t beat Sehwag

None of the other three were specialist batsmen.

Duckohli on a rampage so far. an easy opportunity for him to get some meaningless runs in 2nd innings of this test, but he'll probably fail again

[RedFever]

Looks like the only reason Kohli did not impose follow-on, so that he could pad up his and pujara's stats in this meaningless second innings.

52 and DNB. 

Innings victory. 

Err.   I had this page bookmarked.  What happened?   

[The Realist]

Can't even score 50s anymore

 

Bats on simply for selfish personal reasons

 

Needs to be stripped of captaincy and dropped

Batted like a snail, too! He is choking at the thought of 50 itself, 100 is a distant dream for him.

Imagine this clown leading our test team in an all important tour of SA.  Our lower order won't bail us in SA, unlike it does in India.  Mostly likely we shall be whiteswashed. 

[Sonix768]

IF South Africa series go ahead and IF he curbs his outside offstump poking habit, I guess SA is a good place to score his 71st than SL at home. Currently his spin playing ability is next to nil and we anyway will dishout turners at home and SL has better spinners than Eng and NZ so I dont see him doing well here. SA on the other hand gave no good spinners or spin track and occasionally we would get flat bed as well. So I feel we would get lucky in  one innings where pitch, condition and opposition bowlers are in favorable conditions and he would cash in on them

Long may the wait continue. I am loving it. 

[mishra]

I think team was better unit yesterday. My interpretation Is based in celebration and communication between Virat and player. Hope he continues on this trajectory and finally becomes a respected skipper.

Every batsman goes through a lean patch. Gavaskar did, SRT did. I am sure he will recover. He just needs to let go of this captaincy and the form will return quickly.

Kohli in tests should be compared to Brearly

brearley was 10x the captain Rat is. and his batting was horrible, but so is Rat since 2019

Even Ashwin scored a century this year. Maybe this is why kohli is hesitant to play ashwin as he might have embarrassed loli again
