This guy has done nothing other than those innings. Idiots need to stop comparing Kohli or even Pujara last three years stats to justify this bozo.Those two atleast have some body of work , they have they stunk in last three years but this guy has stunk all his career of 7 years. Idea is - as I have said before - some runs are worth more than others and if you are considered to have a high ceiling talent wise then you get a long rope. I don't completely agree or disagree with this since I feel some players deserve exceptional treatment but current Kl imo doesn't belong in that category. I will be impressed with the TM if in the face of all this commotion around Rahul's place they show a proverbial finger and tetain him. raki05 1 Link to comment

There are no runs which Rahul scored are more important than his stinking failures. Rahul is the most useless batsman to have played over 45 tests. Any tom dick and harry from FC cricket will avg better than Rahul if given as many chances he has been given. He should be kicked out from all formats , there is nothing Rahul will ever do in career , he is complete midget in handling pressure.

Ramesh was going to be a better bet. He was also a quick scorer. Chopra was picked ahead of him Both of them were very avg.It happens all the time but in bigger piccture , maybe Ganguly liked Chopra better who knows what happened between him and Ramesh. Akash could field at shortleg , Ramesh for some reason had this punchable face , even now if you look his runout video with Laxman in Chennai test vs Aussies. Would Ramesh avg like Rahul after 43 tests , I have no doubt he would have averaged above 30.He was not mental midget like Rahul. Edited February 21 by putrevus Link to comment

So don't take anything they do seriously.They are being saved by Jadeja and Ashwin. raki05 and rollingstoned 2 Link to comment
Gollum Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) Ramesh vs Pak in 1999 was amazing, among all Indian batters he played Akram and Saqlain the best, top tier batting. No contest between him and Chopra. Deserved a longer career for sure. Edited February 21 by Gollum Sandz, rollingstoned, express bowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment
nikrulz Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Just drop Bharat and make Rahul the Keeper. The whole fiasco more so than KL's form is due to the fact that Gill is been made to sit out. Link to comment

Talent and all are fine, but lately he has turned in to selfish cricketer and these whole trend started since ipl where inspite of being captain for Punjab and Lucknow he played for himself and for orange cap. People are getting triggered on Prasad criticism but since eternity commrntrators like Gavaskar, Bhogle, Murali Karthik and others always sucking bcci and senior players boots and never had guts or shown interest in criticise them. Had they been doing their work people would not have paid attention to what Prasad is saying. K L Rahul issue is not mind set or talent his issue is selfishness. rollingstoned and express bowling 1 1 Link to comment

Also, keeping in test cricket can be very demanding and KL Rahul may not be able to keep that long and then bat. express bowling 1 Link to comment
wanted_desi Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Is it fair to drop 23 years old talented future of your team for guy like KL? No one asking KL to retire, he can still go back to domestic and get back into the team. express bowling and raki05 2 Link to comment

He came back into Test side through ODI performance not domestic performance. His best option is to check with Pujara if there is any third division team looking for overseas player lol wanted_desi and raki05 2 Link to comment

Just not got the character to tough it out and do hard work. Plus would get bullied and then cry in the corner. vvvslaxman and sage 1 1 Link to comment
zen Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Apparently, there was an exchange b/w Venky & Aakesh on Twitter on the KL topic: Link to comment
wanted_desi Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I watched his video. What a poor video made, the whole point you can take out is that he was trying to kiss KL's ass or maybe his father in law's ass. Lord and raki05 2 Link to comment

V Prasad is giving his POV using averages etc etc. The point of ex cricketers isn't just to kiss ass of current players so they can do interviews etc with them when time comes. express bowling, raki05 and vvvslaxman 1 2 Link to comment
