Indians ko bahut galatfehmi hai apne youngsters ke baare mai, ek ke baad ek sabki aukaad dikhegi, ruko abhi. Agreed youngsters like Gill will not do anything great as it has been proved in last two WTC finals. Lot of geniuses here think Pandya is greater than Bradman. But these old guys had their chances in last decade but they have lost all crucial matches. So it is time for a change. If we are losing we might as lose with youngsters so they can gain experience. nevada, Frustrated, Adamant and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Tum aukaat pe bahut jaldi aa jaate ho What was Kohli 's aukaat in the beginning of test career or Rohit's? Not every youngster will perform consistently,if you have shortlisted 10-15 cricketers andeven if 1-2 come to their own that is enough By the way ,IPL validated youngstwrs should be looked as T20 potentials not test specialists It's the selectors who make bad choices be it selection or phasing out seniors at right time Why do you get triggered when people talk about youngsters? At some point,we have to start afresh?They fail or succeed doesn't bother fans,they will come and go ,much like seniors. AKane, nevada, Vijy and 4 others 1 6 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted June 16, 2023 Author Share Posted June 16, 2023 Growth rate of players is entire up to themselves. It depends on drive from players they end up becoming either a Kambli or Tendulkar. We have talked about so many under-19 stars. Not everyone goes on to become stars. Unmukt chand is a case in point. Sometimes we don't discuss about certain players at all. They surprise us. We talked about Mavi/Nagarkoti/porel from 2018 batch. But guy who made rapid strides from that batch is Arshdeep singh. Now playing for first division county. Same way from Sarfraz/Pant/Kishan batch nobody talked about Sundar. I didn't even know about him until he was picked as a bowler. He produced clutch innings on his debut. Who is our next batting star? We have Gill/Jaiswal in that list. A complete new player can also surprise us. So let us not write off players. Kohli himself was kicked out before coming back into Test side. He was an instant success in ODI. But it took a while for him to do well in Tests.

Kambli had a long FC with high avg, was a beast in home conditions (more so than Pshaw), and got discarded fast. Link to comment

Shaw's lack of discipline, lack of interest in taking the game to next level can be seen from his fitness. Gill showed signs. But seems like he got caught up in all the attention he is getting. Hope that is not the case. If he allows himself to be distracted we will be seeing another under-achiever in Gill. raki05 1 Link to comment

I expect him to become LOI great, but only decent in tests Link to comment

You really should stop praising jaiswal based on his domestic/IPL form. For that matter any youngster. International cricket is a different breed. Frustrated 1 Link to comment
Stan AF Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Gill hit 3 100s in IPL and a 200 in ODIs. And yet he failed like a house of cards in not one but two WTC finals as of now. Stop glorifying these kids to heaven Vijy and Frustrated 1 1 Link to comment

putrevus Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) The biggest mistake idiot Dravid did was bring back Pujara and Rahane into the side. They were left out after the debacle of SA and that should have been the end of them. You would have had two youngsters playing playing in middle order for last two years.

The youngsters maybe good or bad. But the issue is whether selection is being done based on merit ? And whether there are any repercussions of non-performance ? We have a system now where 80% to 90% of the selections are done based on big names, irrespective of current form, ability and performance. This is making the existing players too secure and they don't feel any real pressure to perform. Choose the same names with serious repercussions if they don't perform ... and see the result.
