Karthick behind stumps is just what this team needs!

[Guest dada_rocks]

I propose kambal pitai of DSR

[Ram]

Make no mistake, Karthik is a fine player, an awesome talent. Am sure he has a big role to play in the future. But for now, there are many issues of his batting/keeping that he needs to sort out. But the basic ingredients are there; abundance of talent, excellent temeprament and an outstanding work ethic( many players/coaches have openly commended on his superb discipline in training and practicing). It will be a shame if we go around poking fun at a future India star. For now though, Karthik is a double edged sword. He will make you laugh and cry, both in equal measure.

Excellent temprament; are u kidding me.. this guy has no clue about what he is doing more often than not likes to hit his way out of trouble.. Had he been talented enough wud not have felt the need to resort to this tailender-style of trouble-shooting......... He is crap dropthiv patel is zillion times better than him even in keeping well batting comparison doesn't even start since parthiv is a clas top-order batsman.......

[Mr. Wicket]

For now though' date=' Karthik is a double edged sword.

I would laugh at Ajit Agarkar's attempts to take wickets, then cry when they showed the bowling figures. Nope.

^^ AA was an awesome wicket taker in his prime, though he always leaked runs

[Mr. Wicket]

I said test cricketer.

[Mr. Wicket]

Added nothing to his first innings efforts.

[Cricketics]

Legendry stuff there from Karthik. Didn't even ask for the review. great bat

Salil is Anti-Mumbai:mad: ***R SAALA.. what do u have against agarkar huh.. just because he is from mumbai :wall: man, India cant progress just because of people like you :secruity:

[Dravid]

me thinks, kkd's keeping got messed up when we tried to turn him into a fielder...and made him give up the gloves:icflove:

[King Tendulkar]

Could be his day tommorow!:-D

[satishg]

Could be his day tommorow!:-D

lol DSR u still haven given up on him..lets hope for ur sake and the teams sake he comes gud..but hey v are all expecting him to fail so if he clicks then it wud be a big surprise if not well yea it was expected

[gs]

Could be his day tommorow!:-D

C'mon Dinnu! :giggle:

[Mr. Wicket]

16 runs in 3 innings here. Many many more given up by his impression of a chimp with two left handed gloves standing behind a wicket. (I refuse to call it keeping) The selectors should take a leaf from Karthik's book and drop him. (Ideally off a pier, with the concrete blocks tied to the feet)

[DomainK]

Could be his day tommorow!:-D

It is his day. But not ours.:nervous:

[King Tendulkar]

How did he keep? Genuine question as did not watch todays play!

[The Outsider]

How did he keep? Genuine question as did not watch todays play!

Missed only one chance this time round, although I did not watch it completely either.:D

[umpire]

he missed so many takes. Parthiv is coming in for 3rd Test. Go Parthiv Go

[Dirty_South]

DK is shyte. He missed a straight forward stumping chance.

[Predator_05]

He looks better with the bat today. Much more assured in defence while still backing himself to play his shots. A 50 is on the cards, and it would be well over-due. He just hit his second six and looks to be growing in confidence.
