Fault idiotic selectors for it, if KL Rahul can open and also play in middle order.Jaiswal would have done it too.

 

They should have selected Jaiswal for 2023 world cup itself.You always try to fit a great talent into the side, it does not matter if he is out of position.

Anyway, time for Rohit to go, just for how lax he is about his fitness. Can't have someone that obese leading national side.

KL was the keeper though. Pant would have played if he was fit. Jaiswal couldn't have been accommodated then

I don't think either Rohit or Kohli will play next world cup.

 

It is just too hard to play just one format and be match ready given how few odis teams play these days.

 

Jaiswal issue is he still has not cracked into t20 side too its core member.

If so they should make way. Hardly 20 ODIs left before the WC, youngsters deserve some experience. 

 

They are staying because they want redemption for the 23 loss.

KL was keeper because that was the clear opening for Dravid to stick him in otherwise he would have opened in place of Ishan Kishen.

 

Jaiswal should have been in the squad in place of PK and given SKY doing nothing much he could have played in some matches.

 

Again there was Dravid the coach who tried everything in his power to hurt the team.

 

He and Rohit kept playing Rahul as an opener in 2022 t20 world cup even when he was failing and Pant was there healthy.

I disagree why should they make way , what are selectors doing, let them do their job.

 

Nothing wrong in players wanting redemtion but selectors have to do their jobs and let them go.
