Don't disagree there but they are being wildly overrated tbh. They were successful at a time when lot of Asian teams were below par in fitness and technology etc. Link to comment
putrevus Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Wasn't Sachin the so called GOAT part of that 0-8 fiasco. No one is saying Dhoni was better test batsman than Pant. Link to comment

Don't make him build an innings like in WC 2019 semi-finals (that anyways is ODIs). Allow him to finish games in T20I format like he did in Nidahas finals. He will not disappoint the team and bring it out of rut in tight situations such as in today's IPL match vs RR. Mind you, RR is not a simple IPL team. They have Boult, Prasid Krishna, Saini, Ashwin and Chahal: five international calibre bowlers in their ranks and DK still pulls it off. The problem with DK is, when India bats first or if he has to come in with around 8 + overs to spare, he hardly has made any noteworthy contribution in last 10 years. Link to comment
bowl_out Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 18 hours ago, Majestic said: Problem with having DK in Indian T20 team is who you drop and then who is your all rounder? In T20s, you need 6 bowling options. Hardik and Jadeja are there currently at 6 and 7 and backups are V Iyer and Axar/Sundar. So, if you pick DK at 6 or 7, how you figure the sixth bowling option? Hardik is already your 6th bowler, so that is not the problem.. The issue is if DK plays, you cannot play any of Shreyas/SKY/Venky Iyer. Rohit Rahul Rat Pant DK/SKY/Shreyas/Venky Hardik Jadeja 4 bowlers That's the likely XI.. Purely, on merit though, Rat should be dropped and Shreyas or SKY should play at 3 and DK/Venky at 5.

Purely, on merit though, Rat should be dropped and Shreyas or SKY should play at 3 and DK/Venky at 5. I see DK as more of a no.6. Hardik can bat at 5. His batting is good vs spinners but he struggles vs quality pacers in terms of hitting ability in death overs. Best team would be : Rohit (c) KL SKY Pant Pandya Dk Jadeja But Kohli isn't getting dropped. So,no place for Surya at 3 and DK in the team. Edited April 9, 2022 by Majestic Link to comment
Adamant Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Imagine DK batting against Pakistan in t20 World cup in Aus Shaheen will love that. Dk is an IPL level player at best, he has no talent. Link to comment

If Matthew wade can, then DK certainly can. Link to comment
Norman Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I love how suddenly paxtan are some kind of benchmark for Loliturds just because he scored a useless soft fifty against them.. They're a nothing special side who managed to fluke a toss lottery against panoti loli. See how they'll get smashed by all the decent sides in Australia. Nikola 1 Link to comment

Jay Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I dislike DK the test player and the odi player. He is a decent t20 player I will say for sure. Could he spank shaheen in death overs? Possibly. Should he be picked now for india? Resounding he'll no. Link to comment

Sadly it is hard to select players only for one role. When he fails it will look really silly. Only way he can play for India is by being a keeper not as a pure batsman. We already have plethora of keeper batsmen. Vijy 1 Link to comment

But in the end overs with fielders on the fence it is harder. Raina(old one)/KKD are exceptions. Link to comment
