He was selected because he is still the captain of India in all formats. His failures in t20 world cup are not new.

 

But many geniuses were so eager to make him the captain after 2021 .India does not like split captaincy.Who is the alternative?

 

Hardik .

 

We bowed out of last WT20 with Rohit himself failing. Why should he still be in team let alonecaptain?

 

Split captaincy was there in case of Rohit and Dhoni. So its not something new

 

We have to make team first and then select captain among certainties. SKY and Bumrah have far better case here.

He should have never been made captain of India in any format to begin with, but idiot Ganguly thought he knew cricket.

 

 

Winning IPL  has no bearing on Indian team.

This guy is so past his prime in this format (and soon in all formats). Its become embarrassing.
Totally unfit and in this IPL he was even struggling against pace. His decline will be fast from hereon. 

He did make an attempt to improve his scoring rate in ODIs but that significantly impacted his average. But he's a totally futile case in T20s
At least Kohli is working on his fitness so that decline won't be as quick in his case.

Rohit,Jadeja should be nowhere close this T20 team.

ROhit fans now claim "He doesnt' care about IPL. He only delivers in international". They are most deluded fans. More than Lohli fans. Atleast Lohli has some stat in the IPL.

Unlike Dhoni who has hidden behind weaker batsman and even  bowlers all his career, Rohit atleast comes and faces the music. Dhoni has been useless all his career in t20s, so Rohit the captain is an upgrade over Dhoni the captain.

You keep saying this. He took his side to 10 ipl finals 12 play offs won 5 times. won champions league, won CT, won world T20, won world cup. Can you list the achievements of Captain kohli and Rohit. Even the epic Gabba series win was orchestrated by Rahane.

No one gives a a flying * about IPL, there is no legacy in it.

 

Dhoni was a horrible t20 player with one international 50 and a very low str rate for someone playing in the lower order.

 

Just because he was carried by others to one World t20 win doesn’t mean he can be touted as great.

We are talking abotu captains not players. This carried bs i have heard enoug when Kohli can't carry himself in 2019 semi final or carry Dhoni in 2015 semi final. Kohli had better team, Rohit had better team. They couldn't win anything. They were literally trembling and choking like sh** bag in each event. Couldn't even protect their wicket.

This thread is not about captaincy , its about Rohit Sharma and how bad he is doing as a batsman.

 

Also the discussion was about t20 , have you gone senile? putrevus literally mentioned t20 there.

 

Dhoni was a mediocre t20i player and no amount of BS will ever change it.

 

 

Theres no need of mentioning ofi world cup here when the topic is something totally different.

 

 

Your posts are reaching a new level of low these days cl, can’t find any logic in them

lol 2011 was the best odi  team India have ever had the lower order prowess was insane can you compare Yuvraj,Raina and Dhoni with the likes of kl Rahul, shoonya Kumar and fraudeja ,yes bowling was slightly better in  both2019,2023 than 2011

Yes it was a quite balanced team for those conditions

Good balance of top to later middle order batting ARs,lot of depth there

Even Harbhajan could tonk few

This was due to guys like Yuvi, Sehwag,Raina offering bowling option. Even Sachin was used at times

 

Current top 5 don't bowl so we have to make jugaad combos lol

No new level. This thread has spilled over to other areas long back if you don't follow. There is an attempt to deviate the failures on to Dhoni, Bumrah everyone around Kohli to justify his failures. Secondly MSD is not a specialist batsman. He is a keeper and captain which he shouldnot have done too long. But that won't erase all the achievments he had at the start of his career as a captain and oveer rthte period in IPL. So you kinda  jumped into middle of that.

yea. That is how the team was built from the outset. Thta is how he built the CSK too. Also when India lost Yuvi he forced Jadhav to practice bowling.  MSD for all his flaws had right idea about combination of batting and bowling depth. Among the current captains hate to say it but Pandya is the only one who focuses on that area. These "batting maestros" as captains absolutely p ay no attention to balance of the side. Becaues they can't bowl.

Wake up BCCI. There is still time.

You can't leave Abhishek and Rinku out of team.

Bumrah was not part of epic Gabba win, does it mean Siraj becomes a better bowler, that’s how illogical your argument is regarding Dhoni.
