Crookbond Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Me thinks so - he becomes quite flat footed while playing outside the off stump. This results in more played ons.
Crookbond Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Temperament lets Rohit down Someone lesser talented would always have the blueprint for each innings, as structuring the innings correctly is imperative to their success. Rohit doesn't seem to understand the need to avoid playing high-risk shots at the beginning of the innings or the value of consciously moving his feet slightly quicker in certain conditions or during bad phases. He was guilty of slashing outside the off-stump early on in the innings only to nick it to the wicketkeeper many-a-times in Australia. http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/current/story/574560.html
Ultimate_Game Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Looks like we need to create one giant thread for Rohit Sharma similar to a Tendulkar thread where we can talk about Rohit's tailunt, temperament, technique, IPL exploits and what Gambhir thinks about him.
Old guy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Does anyone else think that Rohit has a serious problem of playing away from his body? yes!!!! i always did ..but before failures no one agreed with me :P rahane seems to have much ore balanced technique

rkt.india Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 yes!!!! i always did ..but before failures no one agreed with me :P rahane seems to have much ore balanced technique Rahane's front foot is not that good as a short guys he stays on back foot a lot.
Old guy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Rahane's front foot is not that good as a short guys he stays on back foot a lot. not saying he is perfect.. but over all when i see him play i think he can handle most balls better then nohit even kohli is far from perfect...but key to batting is to know ur limitation and play to ur strength rohit is clearly unable to do that
rkt.india Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 btw rkt do u think pujara has perfect technique ? you rarely see perfect technique and there is nothing like perfect. All have their share of flaws.
Old guy Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 you rarely see perfect technique and there is nothing like perfect. All have their share of flaws. yes its all about how u overcome them i think rahane,pujara deal with there limitations much better .. i have not seen rohit over come this problem at all..he is type of guy who will keep making same mistake again n again unless some one teaches him the hard way
Needforspeed Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Where does temperament comes in when he gets out a lot of times trying to defend the ball? This guy is as overrated as Vinod Kambli was at one time. Kambli too was stylish to watch but lacked both technique and temperament.

You can count them out on your finger tips.
Cricket Tragic Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 WI have a better bowling attack than India and SL. It's not about the bowling attack but the fact that most of his runs are against 1 team.
Cricket Tragic Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 What let Aakash "edge to third man" Chopra down?
zep1706 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 What let Aakash "edge to third man" Chopra down? No tailunt.
SLICKR392 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 He has got enough temperament. He almost cost us the game against Pak in Asia cup because of tuk tuk. He is very vulnerable during his 1st 20-30 balls. He woke up from a 3 days sleep and got down to the field to face Malinga.
Sooda Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 What let Aakash "edge to third man" Chopra down? Haha..well his failings as a player notwithstanding, he is a good writer and accurate observer of Indian cricket related issues. Particulary on domestic cricket. You may well think he not one to speak/write, which might well be true to be honest... But he has still achieved more than many cricket journos who have played no high level cricket at all...
Crookbond Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 What let Aakash "edge to third man" Chopra down? How many runs did you score? :wink2:
vvvslaxman Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 I posted a message about Rohit on Akashs twitter 2 days back... i am sure he reads it I posted.. "he fails not because of tempaerment but because of technique
