Rahul the WK for England 5 test series


Recommended Posts

He was better than expected but also made some silly errors. now for the 5 Test series we have no one to even challenge his position .I hope he can manage it for all 5 Tests because keeping in India is 2 times the hard work because of the spinners.

Still don't understand why they keep selecting the useless KS Bharat. The guy's just not international material in both keeping and batting. 

 

Upendra Yadav should have played two full series by now. If not him, they should just throw Dhruv Jhurel in the deep end and see if he comes good. The guy has serious potential...could be the next pant.

With tailender like batting, he has conned people into thinking that he is a technically sound pure keeper. I cant believe he is the only option around.

KL Rahul should also work on his bowling, he can easily replace Jasprit Bumrah/Mohammad Shami.

This will solve many of our problems, KL can bat, keep and will share the new ball as well.

 

I hope someone propagates this news to "Indiranagar ka Gunda".

 

Yes, he can bowl pace with the new ball and spin with the older one. He can easily replace Kuldeep with Chinaman bowling and Ashwin with his off spin.

There are some strange fallacies in Indian cricket. 

A trundler medium pacer is always accurate just because he bowls slow.

A faster bowler is automatically wayward.

A poor batsman wicketkeeper is always a technically good keeper.

Agree..

 

Oh and that fallacy list is a lit bigger lol.

 

Any batsman who plays an attacking brand of cricket is automatically a hack and "can't play the moving ball".

 

A specialist batsman is a better bat than an all rounder irrespective of form and conditions. Vice versa for bowlers..

For home test series, I Kishan can be tried as a back up WK, in case Kela gets injured or needs a break (coz its a 5 test series).   Kishan can't be worse than Bharat(who happens to be the worst WK batter in our test history)

  

Kishan ke L lag chuke hain bhai.

He was tired of sitting on bench since world cup, so he asked for break during SA white ball leg.

Now every media is reporting that he was seen partying in Dubai and lied to team management etc. etc. This is why he is not selected for Afghanistan series.

It seems that whole planning is being done for KL's entry to T20 world cup team.

Okk.  Then, anyone from our white ball team can be picked viz: Jeetesh Sharma or Samson.  Their batting can't be worse than Bharat.

But who will keep when he bowls? Is he gonna umpire as well, in the same game :pop2:

He can continue to run in his delivery stride and go behind the wickets by the time ball reaches the batsman...no need for another keeper.

 

Don't underestimate the Rajnikanth of Indian Cricket. :rock:

I think the matter related to Kishan has been resolved by BCCI.   And he is likely to be our first choice WK for the Eng test series.
