saneindian Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Nothing to do with Kohli....It is thanks to our bowling :giggle: Anyways in the past especially in the pre-Ganguly era we used to always be decent at defending but very poor chasers,now it is the opposite. Pak these days is kind of like that Thats a bit of myth. Look at the data for last 5 years. We have 2nd best W/L ratio in the world in the last 5 years batting 1st. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?batting_fielding_first=1;class=2;filter=advanced;orderby=win_loss_ratio;spanmax1=31+Oct+2013;spanmin1=31+Oct+2008;spanval1=span;template=results;type=team Bowlers must be doing something right. I think the problem gets accentuated on absolute patta wickets where the bowlers fail to defend big scores (and losses vs BD become a pain). But as this series has shown, even very good bowling attacks struggle on such wickets defending big scores.
peterparker Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 he will be best ODI batsman not all time best batsman he has to prove himself in test cricket and also, he has problem with shot pitch deliveries, bowlers like finn, morkel will give him trouble
King Tendulkar Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 I agree with thread title. I am jealous I did not start such a thread. Put the title down to me and start from post 19. I am backing Kohli :winky:
King Tendulkar Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 I never said Kohli was good in Test matches; in fact I mention quite the contrary. Do not make things up. :giggle:
King Tendulkar Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 McGrath would have eaten Kohli alive. Would have been no contest. Flat track or no track Steyn couldnt.:finger:
King Tendulkar Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 :cantstop: so it means that if a player is doing well consistently..we shouldn't praise him...since it might jinx his performance...:WTF: is this nonsense :giggle: btw...KOHLI is in superb form :hatsoff: :two_thumbs_up: When will the aunties learn?:haha:
Old guy Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 None of you guys backed him for Perth test like I did ...:proud:
King Tendulkar Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 None of you guys backed him for Perth test like I did ...:proud: O I always backed him. :finger:
Cricketics Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 None of you guys backed him for Perth test like I did ...:proud: You are in a big line which starts with CRICKETICS.
Laaloo Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 You are in a big line which starts with CRICKETICS. what's that? the DELUSIONAL line?
express bowling Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 what's that? the DELUSIONAL line? Exactly which aspect of Kohli's game is disappointing you now ?
Lord Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 should have waited for the match to be over :(( :antijinx:
King Tendulkar Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 should have waited for the match to be over :(( :antijinx: This is about his runs and tons. Got ton so can bump
