b555 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Kohli is the first one to get the opportunity, or should be be the first one. Another failure from Pujara here, and he should be replaced by Kohli and not anyone else comeon , u of all shouldnt be talking about pujara like this he surely has the capacity thats comparable to laxman and dravid out there!!
vvvslaxman Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Upto Yuvi really. Continue the good form in IPL and then in the WI ODIs. Force the selectors to pick him for the test team for WI. Will not be a bad choice on the slow wickets of WI. Against WI he might come good as they don't really have great spinners or swing bowlers.

Cricketics Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 comeon , u of all shouldnt be talking about pujara like this he surely has the capacity thats comparable to laxman and dravid out there!! arey bhai. I am saying another failure. I am all for him getting chance. But another failure means, another failure on tour. I don't mind him touring West Indies. Am I asking too much? One full tour of south africa, and now one full tour of West Indies. Isn't that enough. I never meant one game or an inning. I would like him to play in the whole series of Windies.
Cricket Tragic Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Against WI he might come good as they don't really have great spinners or swing bowlers. Their attack was piss poor in 2006 as well and Yuvraj (then in great ODI form) was a disaster in tests.
saneindian Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 but then we tour Eng.cant pick players for specific tours Yuvraj in form going into the England tour would make our test team much more stronger. If he shows the same sense of responsibility that he has shwon in this WC, success is not beyond him. His past failures have been primairly due to temprament and not due to a lack of ability. As Gavaskar said the other day, someone should help Yuvraj set the next goal for himself which is to score at least 3-4 test 100s every year from now on till the time he plays for the next 5-6 years.

Ranjha Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Yup definately Yuvraj should get the test spot. I think he is a new born Yuvi with a lot of determination and I am certain he will justice to his talent. I can bet 100% he will be given the opportunity regardless of what some of the people here write here.

Agree. I am 100% certain Yuvi will play the next test series or at the least be in the squad.
diegovegaz Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 deserves a chance high on confidence, best oppurtunity to cement his place
Sachin=GOD Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 He's very high on confidence right now and there's no better time to give him a chance again. This time I'm confident that he'll seal a place for himself.
Cricket Tragic Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 It's not the first time that he has been in good ODI form. He has been in better form for a longer period and still failed in tests when given the opportunity.
Andy Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 I'll stick with Pujara, gives me much more ease Look from the crease facing Quality bowlers.
anish233 Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 i actually beg to differ alot of ya'll's thoughts.... i think with Yuvi its his CONFIDENCE... and his confidence is surely back.. i think he should be given a try in a test match.. becuz he can be a match winner...
fineleg Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 You folks need to realize that Tests and ODIs are like chalk and cheese. So different. The thing about getting Yuvi in Tests is that if he struggles again, it may affect his ODI form also. Let him continue to shine in ODIs and T20. We can get more technically correct batsmen for Tests.
Zelig Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 I would like to see us playing against a full strength WI pace attack - Raoch, Taylor, Edwards n there are a couple of youngsters they are 'big'-ing up. It would be a good yardstick for gauging our very own young brigade of batsmen ala Pujara/Kohli/Vijay.
