Loving Hardik Pandya's captaincy!

He for most part of his career has always chosen easy way out. Never bothered to improve his skills in test cricket. For some reason he has been rewarded and given chances which are not given to many players.

I am all for young players getting chances but they also need to show improvement.

 

This guy has done nothing to deserve the hype he is getting and people are making him default whiteball captain  .What has he done to become captain. 

 

He has never been the best player on any team and always has done the most easiest things rather than leading from the front.

Dhoni, Rohit, Kohli or Pandya it shouldn't matter who is appointed captain, as long as they don't run a complete fiefdom.

Anaconda, Vadapav, Kulcha or Chhapri are not wizards who can magically win games unless the rest of the team actually step up & perform.

Despite their individual shortcomings there is only so much one person can do across multiple games in a team sport.

 

Of course when it comes to personality cults and their camps we fans (myself included) are prone to drawing and quartering these players(and others) for their performances or lack thereof. And that shall continue, one day the Vadapav camp will rejoice and the next it may be the Chhapri camp.

Very well put . Looks like some illitrate bandya fans taken asylum in foreign countries need to educate themselves.

Late Himanshu Pandya will not like in the heaven if his son loose T20I today or rainy day tomorrow ( DLS method probably)

 

So far india never loose white ball series under Hardik Pandya.

The player of the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal: "Of course [international cricket] is not easy but I just love to go out and enjoy myself. I would love to thank Hardik bhai and the support staff, the way they have spoken it really had an impact."

[putrevus]

Again the same idiot who is spouting the  same nonsense. 

 

This guy does not even belong in the team forget the captaincy.

 

Had anyone seen his SR .

Captaincy is awesome  Kaptaan truly leading from the front.  In every dept.  "For the opponent".

I supported the idea of him being the captain only because the other option was KL Rahul. But it is turning out to be a failed experiment.

He has no vision of team building, millions of players are being tried every series and getting dropped. 

He has no seriousness as a captain, random batting order changes, random bowling changes. There doesn't seem to be any coherent thinking behind his decisions. Although I never expected him to be a thoughtful captain but what is on display is worse than one can imagine an international captain to be. Also his batting such big failure that it is better he is asked to work on it rather than thinking of captaincy.

he can't improve it, as it's beyond fixing.

Why bat first after winning the toss in a strip wheren you cant even defend 200? "Because we need to challenge ourselves" Arre BC, series decider is not your time for challenging..

then what is the time to practice for an important must-win pressure game where India loses the toss and has to bat first (like in 2021 v Pak and NZ, 2022 SF, ...)? 

 

A series decider game is for that! ... Once a new series begins, not many will even recall this series.

Thread Title is totally appropriate.  from Windies perspective.

Learning is good, but we have been learning since 2013. Clearly, the process in ODIs/T20s is not working by mere learning

This is more or less a new team. Not many (Gill, Jaiswal, Tilak, Axar, ...) have experience of ICC knockout games. 

 

These guys are working towards 2024 WC and they are aiming to shape up as a bunch that does not get disheartened by having to do difficult tasks.
