Karan114 Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 While cowlashers Pandey & Uthappa are known to struggle against quality pace on a good wicket' date=' I have my suspicions even on upcoming stalwarts like Raina & Kohli. [b']Though Raina and Kohli are in a different class than Nohit sharma & m.vijay. The issue with Rohit is not a lack of ability against quality pace bowling - he is the most talented of the lot and easily on a different level to Vijay. It is entirely a question of focus, and I agree with holysmoke that he seems headed the Kambli way. Yes, he is 23 and has a lot of time etc. but the signs are bad.
Andy Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Nohit Sharma looks like as if he is on Drugs.
vvvslaxman Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Nohit's problem is not pace or bounce or turn. He suddenly starts playing as if he is zonked out. He is not capable of holding concentration for longer periods. Too many lapses in concentration. Worse than Karthik's concentration levels. We all discuss about technique, talent, ability. But temperament is 50%. If you don't have that you are as good as those who are not talented.
ViruRulez Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Vijay is looking a lot better recently. He seems to be a lot better faced now though I would test him in UK, Aus etc. once too before giving a positive thumbs up. But he has improved a lot since T20 WC.
The Dark Horse Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Vijay can leave rising deliveries at will(which is enough for tests), the problem is for LOIs where he has to score against them
