The BCCI's prescribed minimum score on the yo-yo test is supposedly 16.5 for men, and it is learnt that Shaw scored less than 15

What is Rohit and Pant's score? or even Ashwin?

This *ing guy, wasting his talent.

Not good enough then. So much for being called as prodigy and the next Tendulkar Lara coming. He doesn't belong.

Meanwhile, Kohli seems to be scoring well only on yo-yo and nothing with the bat..

Exactly. He was passing yo yo tests with flying colors even in the past and then dropping more than half the catches that came his way. So is he really "fit" in cricketing terms?

Pant scored 17.3 last time he had to take one. They said Rohit and Ashwin cleared it but not sure about the score 

 

In any case that doesn't excuse a 24 year old guy to score less than 15. Even women cricketers will score more than that

He could win us a WC at the top of the batting order potentially.  As part of a well designed batting unit.

I never rated this guy high. I don't think he will do well in future either.

What is wrong with Pant's fitness? Keeps superbly or entire test matches and also seemed to have shed some kilos.

But his belly passed the buffet test  

 

Shaw won't make it at high level if he can't even maintain basic fitness levels. He should be embarrassed for being so out of shape at his age.

he seems proud of it, looking at the pic in that ESPN cricinfo article. seems to have a very mid-20th century attitude to fitness

He won't be facing domestic trundlers in important world cup matches

Him, Sarfaraz Khan & Rohit are good role models for Mumbaikar.

Has talent but his laid back approach will bring him down unless he acts fast.

Mayank is much better option. Plus he's a gun fielder, no need to hid him on field

[Sgattick10]

So much talent wasted. On a given day, he can blast any opposition
