daryl1985 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Gambhir has become my favorite batsmen in the team after that knock. He's the new "WALL" of India. Gets run out like Dravid a lot of times but without him we would not have been able to contain Malinga imo' date=' after he ran through Sachin/Sehwag like nothing. Gambhir broke his bat handling Malinga. Pure respect.[/quote'] Definitely could be the new "WALL". He is a gritty character who toughs it out in difficult circumstances and like Gary Kirsten says he is a streetfighter. I love watching this guy bat for India. This is one of the most ridiculous threads i have seen on this forum! Link to comment

Ultimate_Game Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Gambhir is a proven big game player and generally always performs against Pak - the most likely team we will meet in Quarters. He's an amazing player against spin and so should do well against SL as well. I say keep Gambhir unless he throws his wkt away in the next couple of games as well. Gambhir seems to be in fine nick and I'm sure a big one is just round the corner. That's true... Gambhir raises his game in crucial chases and especially against Pak and SL Well I'm willing to take a bow :bow: Link to comment

jonas10 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 As I said guys Gambhir made me eat my words! Great on him he came in huge. If you read my original threads I said this team badly needed a guy like Raina and my suggestion was to drop Gambhir and push Kohli Yuvi up the order....good on Dhoni for knowing better and dropping Pathan for Gambhir instead! Raina + Gambhir = awesome happy guys!?!? Link to comment
Temujin Khaghan Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Gambhir is the most underhyped, underworshipped but exceeding expectations yet modest hero of the WC2011 winning team. he is like the batting version of anil kumble. does his job and does it silently without any drama. end Link to comment

I really hope he can bat until he is 36 or 37 cos we will realise how important he is when the big three and Sehwag retire. Link to comment
BERGKAMP Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 If someone can give him support he is the the most likely player for me to bat out day 4 and 5. Link to comment

Ram Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Gautam Gambhir seems to be a shadow of his previous self.. Watching him negotiate the first 2 overs from Fidel Edwards, it is hard not to think how things seem to have regressed. At his peak in 2008/09, Gambhir was like a fortress - assured in defence and confident in attack. There was a solidity about technique and temperament back then that made you, as an Indian cricket fan, feel remarkably secure while watching him bat. But these days, a few deficiencies seem to have crept into his batting. There's a general looseness about his batting that is worrying. He seems more vulnerable outside offstump than before. Plus, even when he's trying to play the attacking shot, it feels there isnt 100% conviction behind his intent. Its not like he is in terrible form or anything, but if we are to do well in Australia and beyond, we really need him to recapture his old self. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Hope this turns out to be a jinx thread. He is "chasing god". He can afford a few failures. Link to comment
Ultimate_Game Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I get a feeling Gambhir will show up in Aus. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 agree with this,he is no sehwag.He needs to stay their and work through it,show some respect for the windies bowling. Link to comment
Number Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 He needs motivation and pressure to perform. There is hardly anything left in this series which can motivate or pressurize him. Link to comment
Ram Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 This was an interesting read that was published on cricinfo about a week ago; http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/540927.html Its a big cause for concern when your opening batsmen hasnt scored a 100 in his last 25 innings.

Manu80 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Hope he scores a big ton today Link to comment
Ultimate_Game Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Mark my words - Gambhir will score heavily in Australia Link to comment
